The short film Among The Shadows by director Gene Blalock has been released online. The short, produced by Seraph Films, has won multiple awards, most notably from the International Movie Awards, including Best Director, Best Cinematography and Best Short Film.
The film deals with old, childhood terrors returning to a young adult woman and how she must fight these shadows off. Watch the trailer below and then head over here to see the full short.
The irrational terrors of childhood – monsters hiding under the bed and demons waiting in the closet – fade into the nightmares of our youth. You’d have to be crazy to imagine that the flicker out of the corner of your eye was real; it was just a shadow, a moth flitting by, surely nothing malevolent. But denial is only a defense against the imaginary and holds no sway against true horror. When old playmates return, is it madness or worse? Answers lie Among The Shadows.
