Another video I stumbled over while on YT. This is good, just over 15 minute, $60k production budget, better than million dollar movies out of Hollyweird.

That was really good. The actors were excellent, conveyed a lot of emotion and history in that short 17 minutes.
The story was good, but I don't understand, the monsters only eat every couple of decades? That made me pause and think.

But weren't you the one who posted that "Salt" movie? That was a good short horror film too!

Hmm maybe not, this one, I thought I saw it here:

Wasn't me. Thanks for sharing, Ron, that was cool little short film. That premise would make for a nice full length film. I agree with the one mar in Miner Mountain's story, they didn't go into enough detail about why there was such a long time between the victims. I'm just going to assume they hibernate for long periods of time or something. :lol:
