New horror-short film called "Bumps In The Night" - good stuff! OK, I may be a bit biased because the writer/director of this piece is a close relative, but I can still recommend this.
The director and writer of this film, Erlingur Thoroddsen, is studying film-making at Columbia in NYC and he made this short-horrorfilm as a project for his studies. This shortfilm kinda flips the genre a bit, because it's very rare to have a gay couple as the main characters in a horror movie. I don't want to give away too much because it's a short film (only 5 1/2 minutes) but I recommend checking it out and I can honestly say I'm looking forward to future works directed by him. Here's a link to the film on his Vimeo site: http://vimeo.com/9449640 | |

Pause:
The gays are not usually the first to die. The blacks are. We're usually 2nd or third. Ok, back to the movie.  | |

But job well done. I have a question, too, about the last couple lines. They confuse me. 
Otherwise, good production. Love the lingering suspense!  Ὅσον ζῇς φαίνου

I would have posted a link to Erlingur's (the director) website but the English version is under construction - anyway if you have Twitter here's his page - if you want to contact him regarding the film:

I liked it. I actually jolted at the really scary bit.
As for gays and horror... I guess nobody here is acquainted with the ouvre of director David DeCoteau? Voodoo Academy is a classic. Just reading the comments on IMDb makes me howl with laughter: http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0232908/ The characters are not gay per se... but the movie was definitely created for "a specific audience"... | |
