CREAK

Sincerely Psychopath: One
"CREAK"
(5minute short)

UK, 2012
Director: Luther Bhogal-Jones

7/10








"Creak", the first part of an upcoming short film series called 'Sincerely Psychopath', is a fine little chiller about a lesbian couple who wakes up in the middle of the night because of something creaking in the dark of their house.

It's a very well made short, excellently shot, superbly edited and accompanied with an interesting electronic score. The 2 leading ladies Sara T. Douty & Sheila Stout deliver very good and incredibly believable performances, nearly every single scene is creepy and haunting and the main creature (a weird-looking black thing called 'The Pioneer') looks awesome.


Could have been a little longer and the sudden ending was a bit of a letdown, but aside from that, I enjoyed "Creak" and I'm already excited about director Luther Bhogal-Jones' next projects "Knock Knock" and "eXtended".

  1. Hahah I just reviewed this 3 days ago. Funny. I thought it was good too, especially since it was a 'no'-budget project.

  5. I barely watch any shorts, but this one sounds intriguing.

    Did you check out my Woman in Black review, Harry? I know you'll have to wait to see it until next month, but my review is completely spoiler-free, so... ;)

    Are you excited about the Oscars or you don't really care?

  6. Of course, I already checked it out but I will comment on it when I finally watched it.

    Oh yeah, I'm always excited about the Oscars. Fingers crossed that Clooney gets one! :)

  9. Yes, you always do that, and I appreciate it. :) I just wanted you to know that I really enjoyed it, despite its by-the-numbers story about ghosts. Or more like a ghost. :)

    Ah, thankfully, he didn't. I have nothing against him and think he's an incredibly talented director, but he's not versatile as an actor. He can't help but playing the same character over and over again with his trademark head shaking, charming smile and wet, naughty eyes... He was a bit better than that in The Descendants though.

  10. Glad that you enjoyed it! Yeah, it's not that original, but it's short, sweet and neat :)

    You may be right but that doesn't matter - I just love him. In some weird kinda way, he reminds me of Hugh Grant who also plays the same character over and over - and, believe it or not, I'm also a huge Grant fan! :)
