I like the ending of the ghost dogs being able to carry on to the afterlife once the Roomba was stopped. Not because they were avenged from having being killed in the basement, but because the scary vacuum was finally vanquished.

The way this was able convey the difference between a human's concerns and the concerns of a puppy is amazing all while making the audience concered about both. The puppy had no fear of the skeletons in the basement, or meat hooks why would he? He doesn't understand the cultist signs or meanings, yet the roomba is the real tangable threat. I have a feeling ill be coming back to this video just awesome

This is incredible. You are very talented Joe! I love how the dog is unfazed by all the absolute horrors, but to the dog the vacuum is horrifying!

As a horror buff you've think you've seen it all. But this brings back the old question of what is really horrifying? The innocence of the dog proves that horror is subjective; what an amazing display of creativity!

I just wanna say Joe your sound design is absolutely incredible. It’s easy for people to forget but THAT’S what’s selling the authenticity and mood of so many scenes. The sound design especially shines in this 10 minute video with no spoken word. Just back to back to back good choices and quality sound. Really impressed

The quick cut from the skeleton corpse, to the dog chewing on it was perfect comic relief timing. I lol'd because it was a hilarious concept, but I was waiting for the other shoe to drop so badly that it just made it that much more hilarious/wholesome.

I love the main dog’s design, something about it is super charming and cute. I love how the dog is only scared of the roomba and the dark

I lost my shit when all the ghost dogs shined up their red rockets at the dog food commercial. I think you and Zack Hadel should do something together. Y'all are both so talented and funny

Loved it. Truly an eerie environment encapsulated in this entirely unfamiliar realm of absurdity. I never felt comfortable, or that the living dog was ever safe. Kudos to you!

Aww.. I feel like the living dog was able to follow them through to the afterlife bc the house was about to burn down and kill him/ her. What a great film- conveyed so much with no need for words.

This is such a cool concept. Having an oblivious character in a horror setting is something that needs to be done more

@blakeanderson5011

The use of the training clicker sound hauntingly attempting to lure the dog into the basement with a familiar sound it should be obedient towards is genius. Idk if you’re reading this but in ALL of your work your sound design is a cut above the rest. It’s easy to not notice how much you put into it, and that’s what makes it so brilliant. You should feel very proud of yourself for this. Beautiful stuff, dude. Keep it up I’m here for whatever you make.

this was more suspenseful and had a story that made more sense than any actual horror movie ive seen in the last 5 years it feels like. truly a piece of art.

The ultrasounds to attract the dogs in the ad is a nice detail

A masterpiece. Love the twist, revealing the dogs were good but unfortunate boys all along. 10/10 this better win something at Sundance!

The whole time the dog as the main character, behaving as a dog actually would in these situations, is insightful and symbolic on so many levels.

The fucking colors and environment man holy shit. It’s so nostalgic. I love the idea that the house is fully lit, yet windows are open, pitch black and pouring out.
