I love these horror movies that are not the scary type, but the "makes you get the chills" type. There's a tiny but important difference between: one is only made of jumpscares, futiles stuff to make you scream; the other one makes you FEEL. Feeling is an important point horror movies' been missing these days. Nice work! I always look forward to this channel and I'm cheering on Rob from now on!
I feel you. The Descent movie is an example of that. There is a substance to its story. Not all about stupid jumpscare. It is about how a strong bond of friendship was put into a big test. I reall really love it.
Jumpscares are not "futiles good maybe yes but after all there are part of the negatif human IQ totally idiot so much then futiles but even that i totally agree, this is real art we feel the horror in real by realstuff yes are realy good! Before know this channel i wasn't interrested by horror movie stuff, not now for reasons :)
I agree! I saw the short film “Slut” & I freaking loved it!!! I saw it randomly a long while back. I really dug it. Last night I legit felt like I hit the jackpot. I randomly saw the short film again in my recommended, & it looked familiar, so I watched it again...& of course remembered it. Then saw there was an entire channel! I couldn’t subscribe fast 💨 enough. I binge watched ALTER shorts until approx 4am! 🤣 I’m officially addicted! ✌️
Jumpscares are a breach of trust between the director and the viewers, when they use the jumpscare they rape the audience's mind, it should be outlawed.
I've only done that twice. Usually keep a trigger or two around my camp site before going to sleep and check on them again cause you never know. Also keep a 9mm or riffle at hand (pistol is much faster to deploy imo). Why ppl do this well. For it's the thrill of it i guess
The person who took her pictures are not either of the men whom people think are stalking her. The person who took her picture is probably someone living in the woods or the person whom she told she was going camping. The enemy is always closer than we think.
@@ajl2232 someone was there... so she may have been drugged and raped. And maybe she got pregnant. The synopsis says: "What happened next will haunt her for the rest of her life"... this suggests a great change in her life. So pregnancy is a possibility.
I'm never alone either, esp in the woods. I take my friend Beretta wherever I go. That girl is a trip. Loud & in charge. She's always bangin. Anyone who's thinking about going anywhere alone should always bring a friend like her...
Someone said this already, but you look at 2:17 and 3:01, you can see the same guy conveniently sidestepping onto the train after she boards and walking behind her as soon as she crosses the street. That body language screams ‘stalker’ because he’s looking all the time in her direction. Psychological horror is right, as in you need to watch this again to notice those details. I would’ve been scared if I found out someone had taken a picture of my sleeping like that.
Or... you know, just pay attention the first time. It's not that subtle. The thing about almost all short movies is that all the details matter. They don't have as much time as actual movies to tell the story, so they have to cram all details that connect all the dots of the story into a shorter timespan, making them much more obvious for the audience to see. Especially in a horror movie, when you're actively looking for anything out of the ordinary or creepy. With a horror movie, the trick is not to look at the main character, but what goes on around the main character. Horror movies love to slip details into the background and people often miss them the first time around, because they have a habit of looking at the main character or whatever the main focus of the camera is, rather then what is going on in the background. In this particular movie, it was actually pretty obvious. To me, at least but to be fair, I watch and study a lot of movies (as a hobby, not professionally), so I tend to notice those things.
Justin Williams why would you need to watch it again to see these details. They literally throw them in your face and frame the shots around them 😂 Additional note, different people. Okay, maybe you do need to watch multiple times lol.
I hate in movies when folks just find these beautiful secluded places to be alone. Literally every time I've tried that in real life, it's just non-stop bumping into campers, hikers, boaters, fishers, hunters, birdwatchers, wandering idiots, forest rangers, park patrol, fish and wildlife officers. You name it.
The very fact that this short was based on a true story sends chills down my spine! In any case, this short was supremely well done, excellent acting, beautiful scenes, a total sense of calm ... until the final few moments... Excellent job, thanks so much! ♥

She's definitely the type who enjoys being alone ALL THE TIME, you can see she's a loner even in her everyday life in the city but didn't realize that she's not so alone with two different creeps stalking her and possibly a third one who took pictures of her in the woods.

@@inayazahidd I knew how this video was going to end once she bought the cameras. I've heard this story before and it creeped me out the first time. I personally can't confirm it's credibility, but there has to be a grain of truth in it.
I absolutely love alone time, seeing a movie, going for a long drive... but I am way too chicken to go CAMPING out in the middle of nowhere on my own. Lol
Ditto everything you said. I love camping and I am a 6'3" 240 lb fit man, experienced in self defense and the use of weapons (own a few rifles, a shotgun, and one semi auto pistol...at least one of which never leave my reach while camping). I am always situationally aware of my surroundings in either urban or wilderness environments. AND I WOULD NEVER CAMP ALONE unless I had to!!! OK, maybe in my back yard with my 10 year old daughter. a few times I have even set up low trip fishing line a few feet in front of my tent entrance with a bell or can attached discretely and camoflauged at the ends. I don't like surprises and I don't want to kill an innocent person either. You are not chicken, its just common sense. I can attest that some of the craziest, creepiest people I have ever run in to occurred in the middle of nowhere.
Absolutely horrifying and it’s very effective for the first 9-10 minutes you’re feeling sympathetic for the girl and you feel the same peaceful serenity as she experiences her time only to have it snatched up and away with the very last moment
For me, this was more psychological horror than anything else, mainly because throughout the film I was waiting for the terror to become apparent. Each time the scene changed, I was like, "Ah, here it is. She's going to be attacked by wolves or bears or something in the night." I mean, such a flimsy looking tent, haha. It wasn't until she came out of the chemist with the photographs in hand that I suspected the real horror. I did see the creepy stalker guys in the city, at the station and especially the one that seemed to suddenly and quickly duck out of the shot at the crossing. But that was, as others have said, perhaps a little too subtle. I would never go into the wild on my own like that, so for her to do that was super brave (or idiotic!) and I kept thinking how well she knew to take care of herself. But, what if...?
When I lived in NYC, me and 2 friends of mine went hiking and camping up the Catskill mountains. There were 2 days straight that we saw no other humans. It was real nice.
My idea of “alone time” Going for a car wash, Getting my nails done, and heading on shopping 🛍, thrifting, all day, then ice cream.... ALONEEE!!🤣🤣 Her: ⛺️ in the woods, Alone and possibly getting eaten by Wolfs 😂😑
Regardless of any criticisms you may receive, anyone who is a film maker realizes how difficult it is to conceive and produce a movie of any length. Great job and you’ve gained a subscriber.
Totally fair assessment. Thank you for detailing the positive, as well as illustrating what elements might not be so successful. We appreciate any and all feedback as thorough as this.
I wholeheartedly agree on this. The movie was beautifully and professionally shot, but the shocking element was presented too late and to inefficiently. Of course we were expecting someone or something stalking her simply because this was labeled as horror, but the signs that there actually could be someone were too subtle. If the intended genre of the movie wasn't stated, the first ten minutes could easily be mistaken for a really longwinded camping holiday advertisement. Her discovering those special pictures on her camera could have been MUCH more effective if it happened while she was still out there camping alone, not during the comparatively safe train ride back.
I like it how it was. For me personaly is more scary when scare thing start 1 minut before end. If are talking about short movies. When short movie keeps scary vibes ending usually boring me. But not always. It depens on movie.
I was so happy nothing happened to her on her get away even though I put the video on because I love horror but it conveyed such a feeling of that need for "Alone Time" in such a almost personal way that I didnt want the terror anymore. Lol and wanted her to be ok. So when she made it home I was so happy even though my heart was beating the whole time expecting the worst then the picture ooooo got my horror fix and my happy fix all in one 11min. Video!!! Great great job!!! Loved it ! One of my top ten favorites . And I been binge watching for like a month now!😍
We appreciate you watching all of the films we present to you, and are glad you loved "Alone Time." Once the film gets going, it's hard to not root for her just to have a nice getaway. Then the ending happens...
@WatchALTER mate I zoomed in on the last picture and I'm sure that's blood coming from her mouth and around the back of her head. People are saying the picture was taken while she was sleeping. Even though we see her get the pictures developed and looks at them afterwards, yet the last picture shows she is deceased. I'm I looking at this wrong? , please clarify.
Bruhhh when that guy was staring on the platform and the one before she crossed the street. I was like yooo i see you!!!! Your not gonna get me hahahahahhaha
The strange guy who was following her in the train station and on the road, also followed her while camping and he clicked her photos while sleeping. The horror starts at the end!!!
I love films like these that don't rely on the stuff that normally fills a horror film as well as the predictability. They create art and a vision that depicts a different kind of experience. Something unexpected. The storylines are great and it keeps me thrilled all the way. I love love love this channel.💚💚💚
"Eh this doesn't feel like horror but this is making me feel like going out for cam-" * sees ending * "... on second thoughts I'll just pitch a blanket fort at home and never come out. "
The Serene scenic views and transition from City to rural makes it that much horrific to know that she had been followed the entire time... Great video
Me: "This is a horror film? How is this a horror film? In what way? It's beautifully shot and well acted, but where are the scar-OH MY GOD THAT IS SO FUCKED UP!"
Horror films aren't all about jump scares, its supposed to give you chills too. Having any thought that someone could be stalking you and taking pictures of you without even knowing how, its creepy af dude. Especially being a girl.
First few minutes you could see that she was being watched/followed (briefly) subway and the intersection stood out then when she actually decided to go camping -which btw seems too risky to enjoy such an adventure in todays world, I suspected something would be in the pictures. This short film was very well done, the actor played her part well, the editing was great and I like how the music progressed. Her realization that someone was in the tent with her while she slept was a great way to end it. My compliments on the actor, her facial expressions and how she looked off camera made it all too believable!
@@0l0l00l0 The best thing is to have weapons. Me and my girlfriend were attacked a long time ago when we went camping. We somehow managed to escape but that incident left a deep impact on us. We never go too long without a weapon now, especially if going camping or someplace like that.
Heres the full story girl goes on train, guy follows behind to get address and then her plans. Follow behind. Hid behind a bush, went into her tent quietly and drugged her maybe and took pictures
Did he let her alone?Really? The ending didn't somehow mean the same.Atleast her facial expressions which had an intense shock depicted that someone was standing right in front of her or she saw something strange right in front of her
There wasnt much horror till the end (which I dont mind). But what made it scary and unsettling was knowing the fact that it was based off true events. 😮❤😰👏 I also just realized that I wasnt subscribed 😂 thought I was ❤
@@incogneshwari we think there's *some* foreshadowing (there's two potential "stalker"-like characters in the film). It's just very subtly done. We appreciate the comment and the watch though.
Beautifully shot. Love the camera work. Especially the shots of her in the forest where it felt like the audience was the voyeur watching her from afar. Really cool film!
She must of been drugged. The zip noise on the tent, 2 photos on a disposable camera requires winding the film plus the flash would of had to of been on in the dark. All three would of woke her up.
Vrushali Pawar I like that idea, never thought of that. The camera floated then took some photos, the flash and winding film sound would still of woke her up though.
I thought your short was great - shared it with a friend friend who said it was very satisfying. A great narrative without much dialogue - beautifully shot and a very creepy pay off at the end- just lovely.
A guy was stalking her on the train station, and also on the street, in the beginning of the film. I always keep an eye on the people around me. If he was able to take photos of her in the tent, I am thinking he knows her sleeping habits (deep sleeper etc), this means he could be breaking into her house and watching her sleep. The real horror is that no one will believe her story, she would be completely at the mercy of her stalker.
@@connorkimbral3034 You know, sonny, one little incel trolling for fun because he has no social life will never negate the experience that all too many women have had.
@@Jencifer13 *YoU ThInK Im A DuDe?* Well. No social life yet (I assume you're around 30 since you ask "sonny") insulting a 17 (about to be 18 in 2 weeks) year old kid online. Yet I have no social life? Also. Just because some women go through this, doesn't mean all of them do. Less than 50% do.
Good film. I was wondering what the payoff was gonna be---it completely surprised me! It's great to know that there are some people who know that you don't need gore and shock cuts to deliver cinematic chills. Thanks!
I agree with some comments saying that it might have taken too long to the "scary" part to appear, but I think it was perfectly done if you consider the foreshadowing with the stalkers and how mentally affected this woman is going to be during all her life. She had no idea she was being followed and what the true purpose of them following her was - I mean, why didn't they hurt her? What they wanted? Are they still following? She is going to be scared forever, and that's the true horror, you thinking you are safe (the 10 previous minutes) to then having your life messed up like that.
Did anyone else catch the same creepy guy show twice stalking her?First on the subway 🚇 with a suit and then walking in the city while she crossed the street,Wearing a grey hoodie...
that was definitely not the ending i was expecting. i was expecting her to see a guy in a photo still following her but instead she realised someone took her photo while asleep ... gut punch ending ... was awesome
two places I thought the horror would be. Coming back from swimming and finding the tent destroyed, or when she was looking out at the last with the shot of her back, a hand coming out and grabbing her shoulder. The ending was perfect.
Very well done! *insert applause I love good character development. I also really appreciate the way u let the scenery almost narrate the film. No diss to anyone, but some of us aren't children w the attention span of a squirrel & don't require heaps of blood & gore layered w jump scares to evoke fear. Thanks for that. The lack of "horror" until the end is what made it so scary. Not to mention the "based on true events" factor- that works everytime! What a few comments call "boring" I saw as necessary build-up. They're the types to fast-forward through all the talking scenes in a Hitchcock film. Lol. I liked the story's layout. There's the initial wondering, waiting, "Is THIS the moment?" "No THIS is it." ...more wondering. Finding yourself observing every minute detail & seemingly insignificant character. Then, nothing but peacful imagery lulling you into a sense of false security until... SOK! POW! KABLAM! THE END! Instant sub! I'll be back for sure!
I used to LOVE going camping. Love love love it. In my teens. Then I got hit with mental illness. Now I'm way too anxious and my obsessive-compulsive disorder is too strong. I'm getting treated for it very successfully with some awesome neurotechnology. I'll know I am truly better when I can go camping again! Wish me luck! I promise I won't go alone!
I spent the entire time wondering what was going to happen. I really thought something was going to happen while she was in the water, so that was a clever red herring. My only (minor) criticism is that the ending was too abrupt. Well done on a great production though. It was beautifully shot and I found the actress mesmerizing.
beautifully filmed and great sceneries. I loved that unpredictible ending which really got me! Thanks a lot for sharing this short movie! Appreciate this work!!
I like this, beautifully made. Sets a great atmosphere, reeling us in and really feeling the peace and tranquility that she feels while the whole time sensing something or someone is watching her, bravo!

LOVE IT!
J Kras Edits is it actually based on true events ?
@@inayazahidd I knew how this video was going to end once she bought the cameras. I've heard this story before and it creeped me out the first time. I personally can't confirm it's credibility, but there has to be a grain of truth in it.
I am 3 most of the time
I absolutely love alone time, seeing a movie, going for a long drive... but I am way too chicken to go CAMPING out in the middle of nowhere on my own. Lol
Ditto everything you said. I love camping and I am a 6'3" 240 lb fit man, experienced in self defense and the use of weapons (own a few rifles, a shotgun, and one semi auto pistol...at least one of which never leave my reach while camping). I am always situationally aware of my surroundings in either urban or wilderness environments. AND I WOULD NEVER CAMP ALONE unless I had to!!! OK, maybe in my back yard with my 10 year old daughter. a few times I have even set up low trip fishing line a few feet in front of my tent entrance with a bell or can attached discretely and camoflauged at the ends. I don't like surprises and I don't want to kill an innocent person either. You are not chicken, its just common sense. I can attest that some of the craziest, creepiest people I have ever run in to occurred in the middle of nowhere.
For some people, it's a great time 🤠
There are homeless people who live in wilderness areas year-round. Parks, watershed areas, etc. And they know the place better than you do.
I thought there was 'something' in the water.. 😥

SOMETHING IN THE MIST!!
@@italicbass2426 there is no mist
Absolutely horrifying and it’s very effective for the first 9-10 minutes you’re feeling sympathetic for the girl and you feel the same peaceful serenity as she experiences her time only to have it snatched up and away with the very last moment
The place she went camping is soooo beautiful ❤
For me, this was more psychological horror than anything else, mainly because throughout the film I was waiting for the terror to become apparent. Each time the scene changed, I was like, "Ah, here it is. She's going to be attacked by wolves or bears or something in the night." I mean, such a flimsy looking tent, haha. It wasn't until she came out of the chemist with the photographs in hand that I suspected the real horror. I did see the creepy stalker guys in the city, at the station and especially the one that seemed to suddenly and quickly duck out of the shot at the crossing. But that was, as others have said, perhaps a little too subtle. I would never go into the wild on my own like that, so for her to do that was super brave (or idiotic!) and I kept thinking how well she knew to take care of herself. But, what if...?
I like psychological horror movies. Any recommendations
Yes that's my point how can she camp alone in the forest.doing everything by herself.
When I lived in NYC, me and 2 friends of mine went hiking and camping up the Catskill mountains. There were 2 days straight that we saw no other humans. It was real nice.
But did THEY see YOU? 😂
Not sure about anyone else, but the girl gives me a Drew Barrymore vibe. She’s gorgeous.
A bit of Julianne Moore 🙂

My idea of “alone time”
Going for a car wash, Getting my nails done, and heading on shopping 🛍, thrifting, all day, then ice cream.... ALONEEE!!🤣🤣
Her: ⛺️ in the woods, Alone and possibly getting eaten by Wolfs 😂😑
You're not the only one.
That sounds like an amazing alone time kinda day !!
Add a burger with that ice cream for me lol 🤣
Rosalina perez sure thing chica!🤗🍔🍹
@@MBMB-rw3rn Aww Thanks Mami !! 😍🤗😆
I know this is supposed to be scary, but all i want to do is go camping at the exact same spot she was at. It looks so relaxing!
I love the transitioning from city and big buildings to small towns and two lane roads. That alone give a sense of personal awareness!
Regardless of any criticisms you may receive, anyone who is a film maker realizes how difficult it is to conceive and produce a movie of any length. Great job and you’ve gained a subscriber.
I agree with some of the other comments - this is really beautifully shot, but if your
Totally fair assessment. Thank you for detailing the positive, as well as illustrating what elements might not be so successful. We appreciate any and all feedback as thorough as this.
I wholeheartedly agree on this. The movie was beautifully and professionally shot, but the shocking element was presented too late and to inefficiently. Of course we were expecting someone or something stalking her simply because this was labeled as horror, but the signs that there actually could be someone were too subtle. If the intended genre of the movie wasn't stated, the first ten minutes could easily be mistaken for a really longwinded camping holiday advertisement. Her discovering those special pictures on her camera could have been MUCH more effective if it happened while she was still out there camping alone, not during the comparatively safe train ride back.
my idea was to show the newspaper in that area that a serialkiller is on the run somewhere at the beginning. that there will be this ominous feeling.
I like it how it was. For me personaly is more scary when scare thing start 1 minut before end. If are talking about short movies. When short movie keeps scary vibes ending usually boring me. But not always. It depens on movie.
@@TajemnaTemnota did u watch amoire yet?
the scariest shows are the ones that are most plausible! Moral of the story: never go camping alone! Beautiful scenery and well made.
my favorites are the ones that make me say “ew.” no gore or cheap effects. just a chilling story. terrifying.
The ending literally gave me chills.
This was a beautiful film, and I loved the cinematography. You guys did a great job, nice twist👌
It's not their film they just reproduced it off another person's called alone time
I was so happy nothing happened to her on her get away even though I put the video on because I love horror but it conveyed such a feeling of that need for "Alone Time" in such a almost personal way that I didnt want the terror anymore. Lol and wanted her to be ok. So when she made it home I was so happy even though my heart was beating the whole time expecting the worst then the picture ooooo got my horror fix and my happy fix all in one 11min. Video!!! Great great job!!! Loved it ! One of my top ten favorites . And I been binge watching for like a month now!😍
We appreciate you watching all of the films we present to you, and are glad you loved "Alone Time." Once the film gets going, it's hard to not root for her just to have a nice getaway. Then the ending happens...
To ALTER, is this really based on a true story, and if so, what happened after she got home? It looks like she a great dark cloud over her head.
@WatchALTER mate I zoomed in on the last picture and I'm sure that's blood coming from her mouth and around the back of her head. People are saying the picture was taken while she was sleeping. Even though we see her get the pictures developed and looks at them afterwards, yet the last picture shows she is deceased. I'm I looking at this wrong? , please clarify.
Bruhhh when that guy was staring on the platform and the one before she crossed the street. I was like yooo i see you!!!! Your not gonna get me hahahahahhaha
The strange guy who was following her in the train station and on the road, also followed her while camping and he clicked her photos while sleeping.
The horror starts at the end!!!
I love films like these that don't rely on the stuff that normally fills a horror film as well as the predictability. They create art and a vision that depicts a different kind of experience. Something unexpected. The storylines are great and it keeps me thrilled all the way. I love love love this channel.💚💚💚

OMG ME TOO!! I just saw it at the corner of my eye and I was like WTH
The Serene scenic views and transition from City to rural makes it that much horrific to know that she had been followed the entire time... Great video
Me: "This is a horror film? How is this a horror film? In what way? It's beautifully shot and well acted, but where are the scar-OH MY GOD THAT IS SO FUCKED UP!"
Horror films aren't all about jump scares, its supposed to give you chills too. Having any thought that someone could be stalking you and taking pictures of you without even knowing how, its creepy af dude. Especially being a girl.
First few minutes you could see that she was being watched/followed (briefly) subway and the intersection stood out then when she actually decided to go camping -which btw seems too risky to enjoy such an adventure in todays world, I suspected something would be in the pictures. This short film was very well done, the actor played her part well, the editing was great and I like how the music progressed. Her realization that someone was in the tent with her while she slept was a great way to end it. My compliments on the actor, her facial expressions and how she looked off camera made it all too believable!
Wow. What a poignant film. No matter where you go, you can never escape horrible humans.
I hate humanity.
Toomany dark shots.
Ok. Im stupid. Was that a pucture someone took of her whilst asleep?
It would be great to go camping by yourself but I would have my car closer just saying for a fast getaway
And a weapon
And I would have had a firearm on me at all times
What if they slash your tires
@@0l0l00l0 The best thing is to have weapons. Me and my girlfriend were attacked a long time ago when we went camping. We somehow managed to escape but that incident left a deep impact on us. We never go too long without a weapon now, especially if going camping or someplace like that.
@@AmandeepSingh-xn3md attacked by what if I may ask? 😮
Woah...was not expecting the ending. That sent chills through me, especially knowing it's based on a true story

Heres the full story girl goes on train, guy follows behind to get address and then her plans. Follow behind. Hid behind a bush, went into her tent quietly and drugged her maybe and took pictures

Yeah sometimes you can become too alone until you forget who you are
Quoting yourself is the cringiest thing a person can do. Stop it.
imagine quoting yourself to look cool
Thank god he let her go but let that be a lesson for her "NEVER GO CAMPING ALONE".
Did he let her alone?Really?
The ending didn't somehow mean the same.Atleast her facial expressions which had an intense shock depicted that someone was standing right in front of her or she saw something strange right in front of her
What a twist ending, total chills-that is VERY scary, can you imagine?
There wasnt much horror till the end (which I dont mind). But what made it scary and unsettling was knowing the fact that it was based off true events. 😮❤😰👏
I also just realized that I wasnt subscribed 😂 thought I was ❤

The plot twist doesn't match up with the extravagant build-up
ikr? 9 mins out of 11 dedicated to her day to day activities with little to no foreshadowing. nice.
@@incogneshwari we think there's *some* foreshadowing (there's two potential "stalker"-like characters in the film). It's just very subtly done. We appreciate the comment and the watch though.
We're glad you loved the build up at least.
Beautifully shot. Love the camera work. Especially the shots of her in the forest where it felt like the audience was the voyeur watching her from afar. Really cool film!
It’s all fun n games till Alter hits you with the
“Based on a true story”
That was very well done. The ending was unexpexted.
"Based on a true story"
Me: *Hears horn*
*Shits pants*
I just jumped from that too, and so did my bird haha
She must of been drugged.
The zip noise on the tent, 2 photos on a disposable camera requires winding the film plus the flash would of had to of been on in the dark. All three would of woke her up.
there’s a thing called being a heavy sleeper bro
May be there is something horror with camera...
Vrushali Pawar I like that idea, never thought of that. The camera floated then took some photos, the flash and winding film sound would still of woke her up though.
@@svckerpvnch. My mom says even if a parade was playing out in my room it still couldn't wake me
maybe backpacking all day exhausted her along with probably eating before she went to sleep
I thought your short was great - shared it with a friend friend who said it was very satisfying. A great narrative without much dialogue - beautifully shot and a very creepy pay off at the end- just lovely.
A guy was stalking her on the train station, and also on the street, in the beginning of the film. I always keep an eye on the people around me.
If he was able to take photos of her in the tent, I am thinking he knows her sleeping habits (deep sleeper etc), this means he could be breaking into her house and watching her sleep. The real horror is that no one will believe her story, she would be completely at the mercy of her stalker.
Bad week + Stalker = something too many women deal with
Eh. Not necessarily.
@@connorkimbral3034 Eh. Actually it is necessarily.
@@jasamkojajesam6108 Eh. Not necessarily.
@@connorkimbral3034 You know, sonny, one little incel trolling for fun because he has no social life will never negate the experience that all too many women have had.

Well. No social life yet (I assume you're around 30 since you ask "sonny") insulting a 17 (about to be 18 in 2 weeks) year old kid online. Yet I have no social life?
Also. Just because some women go through this, doesn't mean all of them do. Less than 50% do.
I shouldn't have watched this. I'm going camping with a few friends tomorrow. Nice work. Really really creepy.
She went alone, LOL
@@knightlord124 Yeah. But even with friends creepy shit can happen. Luckily it didn't for me.
Camping with friends at such place is also creepy.Honestly I would never go if my friends plan such stuff
Good film. I was wondering what the payoff was gonna be---it completely surprised me! It's great to know that there are some people who know that you don't need gore and shock cuts to deliver cinematic chills. Thanks!
I agree with some comments saying that it might have taken too long to the "scary" part to appear, but I think it was perfectly done if you consider the foreshadowing with the stalkers and how mentally affected this woman is going to be during all her life.
She had no idea she was being followed and what the true purpose of them following her was - I mean, why didn't they hurt her? What they wanted? Are they still following?
She is going to be scared forever, and that's the true horror, you thinking you are safe (the 10 previous minutes) to then having your life messed up like that.
That ending was so unexpected. Great film
Did anyone else catch the same creepy guy show twice stalking her?First on the subway 🚇 with a suit and then walking in the city while she crossed the street,Wearing a grey hoodie...
(we actually think it's two different people 👀)
Not the same guy...take a better look!
@@WatchALTER that's what i thought too 👁
While waiting for crush to go home:
the guy at 2:07
(not in a creepy way tho HAHAHA)
Oh Lord I almost jumped at 1:03🤦
And thats the only part that makes someone jump😂
Me too hahaha
Me too
that was definitely not the ending i was expecting. i was expecting her to see a guy in a photo still following her but instead she realised someone took her photo while asleep ... gut punch ending ... was awesome
two places I thought the horror would be. Coming back from swimming and finding the tent destroyed, or when she was looking out at the last with the shot of her back, a hand coming out and grabbing her shoulder. The ending was perfect.
She should be thankful because that’s the only thing happened to her( photos).
ASMAHAN AL SAFWAN how would she know tho
Very well done! *insert applause
I love good character development. I also really appreciate the way u let the scenery almost narrate the film. No diss to anyone, but some of us aren't children w the attention span of a squirrel & don't require heaps of blood & gore layered w jump scares to evoke fear. Thanks for that.
The lack of "horror" until the end is what made it so scary. Not to mention the "based on true events" factor- that works everytime! What a few comments call "boring" I saw as necessary build-up. They're the types to fast-forward through all the talking scenes in a Hitchcock film. Lol.
I liked the story's layout. There's the initial wondering, waiting, "Is THIS the moment?" "No THIS is it." ...more wondering. Finding yourself observing every minute detail & seemingly insignificant character. Then, nothing but peacful imagery lulling you into a sense of false security until... SOK! POW! KABLAM! THE END!
Instant sub! I'll be back for sure!
Trust ALTER to release a gem that doesn't induce the feeling of the gripping horror until 11:00 minutes in. I'm hooked
Haha SERIOUSLY
The reason why I never go camping or hiking, not even with ppl and definitely not by myself (well, MrBallen adds to that too lol).
I used to LOVE going camping. Love love love it. In my teens. Then I got hit with mental illness. Now I'm way too anxious and my obsessive-compulsive disorder is too strong. I'm getting treated for it very successfully with some awesome neurotechnology. I'll know I am truly better when I can go camping again! Wish me luck! I promise I won't go alone!
I spent the entire time wondering what was going to happen. I really thought something was going to happen while she was in the water, so that was a clever red herring. My only (minor) criticism is that the ending was too abrupt. Well done on a great production though. It was beautifully shot and I found the actress mesmerizing.
Great work,beautifully filmed,,respects to all involved..
beautifully filmed and great sceneries. I loved that unpredictible ending which really got me! Thanks a lot for sharing this short movie! Appreciate this work!!
