Solid little ditty about more than just dead enders. Really enjoyed the watch (read) between the scenes (lines) scattered throughout this short.
Decent creature effects. Mix of sci-fi and old style horror creature feature bugs.
Character development and acting was spot on. Didn't feel rushed or prompted.
Story line was well written and didn't leave you guessing or scratching your head.
Without giving spoilers - pay attention - believe in yourself - move forward - and we are never guaranteed our place on the food chain!
Don't miss out on this short. You might regret it and not see that Dead End(ers) coming!

I actually really enjoyed the color pallet of this film! I'm big on color, lol.
It reminded me of the movie Clerks but the horror/comedy version, lol.
Maya is definitely relatable. Not sure if that's a good thing.
The acting was just okay. I didn't expect top tier acting though and can get past that.
It felt king of like it had some 80s vives which I enjoyed.
I also really enjoy a campy creature feature! This for sure check off the box for that.
It had some great humor and was short and sweet. Best short film I have seen so far this year.
I don't know why, but this film also gave me nostalgia.

Dead Enders (Short 2023) delivers a truly fun and engaging experience. The excellent cinematography immediately stands out, creating a visually rich atmosphere that's impressive for its short format. Even with its brevity, the storyline is impressively to the point and feels remarkably well-developed, leaving a lasting impact. The acting across the board was phenomenal, and Scarlett Redd particularly shines, bringing a captivating depth and nuance to her role. Despite being a short film, Dead Enders manages to pack a powerful punch, feeling like a detailed, cinematic big-budget production achieved in a concise timeframe.
This was a cool short for entertainment. It was witty, entertaining, and quickly captured my attention start to finish. Could possibly be an interesting concept for a full length movie. Explaining the origin of the creatures and the reason they were attacking and how they were defeated. I would suggest this short and would definitely watch it if ever it became a full length movie. It has alot of potential to big great as well as sequels. Im not usually a fan of creature features too much but this is one I could be. I'll be watching for the full length version to be produced and I'll buy my tickets in advance if it does.
This film had me laughing out loud one moment, and gasping the next. The pacing was perfect from beginning to end, and the lines are some of the funniest I've ever heard. This film does, in a little over 12 minutes, what a lot of modern horror/comedy movies fail to do in 120, which is give the audience exactly what they came for. They deliver backstory, build-up, and climax with precision, and you can really feel the heart of this film with every scene. Overall, it's a fun film with fun characters and fun scares. I absolutely loved it, and I can't wait to tell everyone I know to watch it immediately!
