This isn't a movie, it's just this photograph of a woman in bed, and she is about to ...
Yes, that still photo you've been seeing everywhere is a movie, and even though you've basically seen the spoiler ending, that still won't stop this brilliant horror short by Writer & Director Drew Daywalt from creeping you right the hell out. Drew is part of the founding team of FEWDIO, which does nothing but make short Horror movies, though this one has become their flagship. Also stars Kerry Finlayson, Edin Gali, and Peter Giliberti. But that list doesn't tell you enough about what's going on here. For example, Peter Giliberti is the Lead Animator or Animation supervisor behind such CGI Thrillers like SPIDER-MAN 2, UNDERWORLD: AWAKENING, and ABRAHAM LINCOLN: VAMPIRE HUNTER. He's also the Visual effects maestro behind the 2013 season of GAME OF THRONES. The voice on the phone is Edin Gali, who played Kurt Smith in the first season of Mad Men. Actor Kerry Finlayson, who has to act her way right into our hearts (and sympathies) in the space of seconds, is known for BLOOD RUSH and TOMORROW'S END. As for Drew Daywalt (who also edited and produced), he makes a lot of short films for FEWDIO. Whenever I seek inspiration for writing scary, I return to the works of Edgar Allen Poe, Algernon Blackwood, H.P. Lovecraft, Richard Matheson, the imagery of Rob Bottin, H.R. Giger, Edward Gorey, Patrick Tatopoulos, the music of Mussorgsky, Midnight Syndicate, and this nearly perfect (so perfect I can't spot the imperfection, but that may be due to my own imperfections) short film. Simple, subtle, yet smashing. BEDFELLOWS at IMDb. There are more movies at the Feo Amante Theater. Go to NOW SHOWING! Page Copyright 2014 E.C.McMullen Jr.
