    One For the Road is a horror short film loosely based on a Stephen King story of the same name. I really enjoyed how casual the spoken dialogue between the two main characters was in this film.

    Princeton’s in the Mix

    The short film PRINCETON’S IN THE MIX is brilliant from start to finish. The opening credits sequence was captivating and the film starts off relatively normal before taking a surprisingly dark turn and slowly shifting into a horror/thriller. PRINCETON’S IN THE MIX’s tonal shift amps up the simple premise that it had established to the… Read more
