"One Month no pay". 'Well, bye'..movie over hahaha.

I watched every second. I still have no clue as to what happened. An energy force seemed to dwell inside the depths of the theater, but I don't know why. The young man seems to become possessed. The end is terrifyingly tragic. Nothing is ever explained or revealed. Odd...& interesting

I was glued to my chair and couldn't look away....very good job! Acting was great and the tension of the movie was just perfect...Bravo! :)

WOW!!! The young man was/is a great actor; i see him moving on up! Great short.

I do gotta say i feelt the anxiety that the guy proyected, this was actually good

Anxiety 101 in its total spectrum. Bravo. The actor has his well deserved place in this lunacy chamber.

Having the Ink Spots on your soundtrack is already a plus. It worked for Shawshank Redemption. Great psychological horror. The lead young actor was good in his slow descent into madness. The manager definitely knew something. He probably has to provide living souls to this entity in order to keep himself sane and undisturbed. He also knew a "knife to the neck" wasn't going to work on it and was counting on that tragic event.

Yikes . . . never say "I'll do whatever . . . " for starters. He became completely undone. Nicely done with pretty good acting.

Great tension and build up. Good writing and acting. Had some other great ideas on the ending that I was hoping to see although this one was sufficient. Would have been cool if the boss was in on it from beginning for the free employment or if those 2 at the end were the actual movie people were watching in theatre.

This had potential but needed something more. More hints? Start with the never-ending "Exit" signs. Was he looking for an exit? The calendar..."Never Free"....then "Freedom" at the end of the month. Free from addiction? Smoking? Free from a mundane life? It was a small town. He didn't fit it. I got those elements. Just needed more cohesion.

Nice homage to the Shining but my boy had more remorse than Jack Torrance wouldve I think. Alao he went all in at the end acting wise, damn

A sad film for me. The boss is so responsible for negligence.

As someone who worked in projection, this movie hit too close to home, haha! Seriously though , great work by everyone involved, I thoroughly enjoyed it.

The song "Midnight" playing at the end was the cherry on the cake!

Running,heart palpitations and yet he still goes for a cig...classic!😂

Best Nervous Breakdown Ever!

Man! It's a very stressful performance! Great job!

Absolutely fantastic. Great acting, writing, camera work, sound design, directing - full of tension. Brilliant stuff.

Thank you for mentionning the flashing lights !

THIS IS EXCELLENT IN EVERY LEVEL. NICELY DONE. THE BEAUTIFUL LEAD ACTOR ,MR. VAUGHN WAS ABSOLUTELY FANTASTIC IN THIS FILM. GREAT ACTING. AWARD WINNING ACTING BY HIM.I'M SERIOUS, THIS WAS GREAT. LOVED IT. GREAT JOB TO ALL.

Highly enjoyable film, the actors were good enough, the setting was fantastic, and the story was good if not a bit to long. The effects, lighting, and audio could use some work, but I'm assuming this was very low budget and perhaps this was the best you could do with the resources available to you. With regards to it being a self made film, I'd consider it a job well done.

I had to laugh in the interview when the boss man said you will have to work with no pay. That is illegal. Mostly because of insurance purposes. If this guy ever had a accident at their facility he could sue and most likely win.

"Into each life, some rain must fall." Yet the worst people avert this "rule". Well, at least until the afterlife.

This is very cool! Great job!

I adore the Ink Spots! ♥️🎶

It kills me when people in movies smoke a quarter of a cigarette and toss it. It's every movie too. It doesn't ruin anything but I notice. Do they live in a universe where cigarettes are cheap? Anyway, the dark setting is good and I like the use of the music in the theater being used to set the mood in your film.

I think it was more him than the theater, he said at the interview he wasn't a good fit after a week at his last job. The issue was him from the beginning. Good short, thanks for the upload 👍👍👍👍

Good camera work and solid story with a couple jump scares and decent acting. Keep up the good work, subbed

A very good lead actor. And Hollywood A-list looks, too. He doesn't need to be given a smoking prop. He can carry on well. Hope he'll have more appearances. And greater projects.

after the first few nights i would have a million candle laser torch and a 400,000 volt cattle prod..

I'm guessing he started smoking about a week ago since he didn't know how to hold it, what to do with his hand, how to use the lighter or how to inhale. That was so awkward to watch!

Gotta say great actor so good also good looking and very scary and didn't see ending coming hope to see bigger movies such a great actor the fear and partly like the shinning where he went mad in hotel very dark feel around the projection room one off the best I watched in three years when I start watching horror movies shorts I subscribed too well done everyone involved ❤

Could someone explain to me?

Oh no..... The scary story about an angry teenager smoking cigarettes in the parkinglot of his work. Fucking terrifying, in that I actually sat through all twenty something minutes of this thing which I can never get back!

One month with no pay?🤔 My picky ass would have turned that job down😆😆

Great job! 👍 What challenges did you face during production?

Nice job with the ending song 🤣

Okay.. the end got meee.. good film 🎥 😳

A young Bill Hicks...

SPOILERS I guess I'm just not familiar with what the projection area in a cineplex looks like. There is so much equipment. I get that it's dark and shadowy and weird sounds bleed through from the different auditoriums. I didn't exactly get a sense of what was getting him all tense. There were shadows and weird noises, yeah so what? There were a couple of times he saw somebody that freaked him out. I would have assumed some b*st*rd customer playing a sick joke, not monsters after me. So I wasn't understanding his increasing agitation. It was creepy af when the manager as much as admitted there was something in there and suggested a knife for protection. I kind of thought he would get startled by the coworker and knife him. Sorry but you really needed to do something much more to get me creeped out because I just wasn't feeling it. Great acting though, cinematography was nice, sound effects kind of murky just a kind of moaning, dialog was natural, pacing was rather slow. I found the projection area pretty interesting, I guess I'd like to know more about that.

I WANT MY 36 MINUTES BACK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

This guy should never act or smoke or run he makes it all look funny

It was enjoyable enough, the lead actor did a great job, maybe overacted a little at some points, but it fit and was terrific. I'd say it was a bit too long, especially since the ghost/spirit whatever only showed up at the end. This is just personal preference but it should've showed up a few more times before the end, because it felt very out of left field. Despite this the actor who played the ghost did a good job with the little screen time he had, his laugh looked very creepy and menacing. There were some audio and lighting flubs but there were also some really nice shots. To sum it up, this could've used some cleaning up, but it was still pretty good. You earned a sub!

Super. Thanks

Love the songs in this film brilliant

Nice short film love it

Man the editing and the sound mix really drop the ball here. The ADR is horrific. The ambient noise in all the scenes is awful and the EQ is tuned differently for different voices and sounds. There’s this clash of multiple volumes and tones in single sentences. You should have just dropped the buzzing noise inside the theater entirely and had a score over it or something. Maybe it’s feedback from your equipment, honestly I hope that’s the case, because if it’s a conscious choice it’s hard to see why you would think that to be a good idea. The movie is fine, if a bit long. I don’t think the interview scene is all that necessary, I think it would be better not knowing anything about him other than he’s got a job that he really needs. Actually, you could cut out the Manager character entirely as nothing he does or says actually matters with regard to what goes down. A person losing his mind and scared to death would certainly not need a suggestion or exposition to establish why he would pull a knife out to defend himself. And maybe consider cutting one or to of the smoking scenes. Acting is solid, except for whatever the lead actor is doing while smoking...has he never seen people smoke before? But, other than that, he’s quite good. Regardless, it’s the technical issues make it hard to stay immersed. There’s a good film in their somewhere, but it’s about 20 minutes long and involves an actual audio engineer onboard. Don’t get me wrong I did enjoy it. It has a nice atmosphere to it and it does get better as it goes along. I just thought it could have been a lot better with a bit more time in the oven. An editing and a remix could accomplish much of that.

Made me jump a few times. This was great!

Good movie mostly but the sound was hard to push through

Oh my gosh, his reaction was so real!! I felt that!!! That is exactly how I would respond if I had accidentally killed someone I would lose my shit and just cry!! it would be the worst mug shot ever!!!

Good story, bad acting, and there's no reason that this short film should be any more than 2 minutes long ALSO I got checked and I got tested positive so you need to go check in with your doctor PS this is Joe PPS Joe Dresher.

'19 Chevrolet Silverado trail boss 125

This young guy acted pretty good, and I thought about, The Shining, because of hearing the old, tunes, and then they played the same exit music. Lol

Loved it!!! Great Acting and damn scary ghost!!!

Making some kinda loud annoying buzzing noise through the film.. WTH!

This guy smokes more than he works,lol.Good movie though.🤗🤗🤗

What's problem with lights in the horror movies? Scary!!!!

YOU HAVE MY VOTE🤞🏾💖🤞🏾💖 NEW 👍🏽 AND SUB

If Thunderbird Cinema is wrong, I don't want to be right.

I made a mistake watching this. I am really bad with jump scares and it’s 1 in the morning

Short films are better than some Hollywood s feature pics

Hell I thought I was the only one who felt as though they lived at their job.. idk... I didn’t get it.

Guilt'll get ya. Nice!

One month no pay - good deal for the company. Is that legal?

Creepy and all but i don't get the reason behind the scaring or haunting of the theatre. What's the story? Plus why would you stay in a job if you know it's driving you insane? And the guy was a pretty good actor but at times it seemed like he over acted...just my opinion.

My only comment is dude, get a flashlight 🔦.....🚫🔥

After reading comments, I don't get it, I was bored to tears!

Producers are likely fallout4/76 radio fans

Really good movie. But was the only one hearing the odd noise? Like the buzzzzing

Almost a good one... Mr. Director, please at edit at least 10 to 15min out of this suppose to be short. All actors were good but the entity in the hat needs to be a lot scarier...hats and clown makeup and blurty cgi are not scary, or enough for employee of the month to lose his mind. Suggestion... management should say two main character no smoking rule a hundred yards from place of work....now you don't get paid. Also, of a touch of irony would be if the jerky boss got it in the neck, not the nice middle manager

What a great actor the main lead is! Wow!

Good short, great acting. Would've liked more character development as to why he suffered from a variety of mental health issues, which is why he cant find a stable job at all.

..has a Slenderman/Freddy Kruger type theme to it...good storyline and setting..not bad...⭐⭐⭐

what a actor he is 👌👌👌👌👌

This dude almost looks like the actor who plays Mike on days of our lives. I can't pronounce his name . But the actor who plays Daniel has his face kind of.

Um I work a professional job and my job interview wasn't as intense! One month no pay at a theatre....McDonalds is hiring and they are paying from day one. Could have done better with the script.

He is a very good actor he really aeemed like he went crazy

I'll take "extreme over-acting" for 500, Alex?

Employee of the Month?

12:05 ...........Is that the Night's Watch warning horn from Game of Thrones??

Wow some great acting there especially at the end! A bit long and some lighting and sound problems in parts but a great effort on a low budget. More please 😊🇳🇿 watching in New Zealand

I'm not working a full month, for nothing

Y'all see dude running? 😂

👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾

Very well done!

1 mnth no pay? Jeez, how about 10 days or a bit less extreme, not like its a spinal surgery or cern mechanic position

I feel sad to the boy who got hes job he just accepted all circumstances just to get a money to his school.

Paranoid Schizophrenic w hallucinations?? Im so confused. Lol. Is it actually haunted or is his mind??

bloody brilliant

Good short thanks for the uplaod lights

😮👏👏🍿😊

Different

Looks great

*They don't have flashlights or headlamps up in this bitch???* 😳

Not bad, but could have been cut down to about 10 mins.

Great movie but voices sound off

He said he wasnt running a charity but now the kid works for free? not sure thats considered a job and who puts interview calls out for night time janitor?-lol

Idk how jobs work but wouldn't you normally have another employee train him? For amateur film making its not bad although I found myself bored not long in. Not gonna lie couldn't sit through the whole thing it just didn't hook me.

I watch maybe 10 to 20 or more shorts a day. So I may have more viewing experiance than others loll. But it wasn’t too bad.. just two things I didn’t care for .... I am not going to be mean. I know many of these films are made by people starting out and may not have the best equipment which is fine so I won’t talk about the flares or anything related to gear. I liked the story it wasn’t bad at all but in my opinion 40 mins was too long. I got a bit bored with the same thing over and over and no answers. Even as it ended I didn’t get anything so I am still here 45 mins and no clear answer as to what happend here. Was he insane? Was it haunted? Did the boss know? Was the boss the monster or was the guy imagining... etc etc now I love shorts that has a good open end so I can come up with different theories but usually the theory is what happens at the very end or what will happen next not the entire story. So that’s the biggest part I didn’t like. The entire story really didn’t have a meaning or purpose if that makes sense and it’s too long but I am NO PROFESSIONAL. It’s just my opinions and I KNOW I couldn’t make something at this level so I am not saying it’s bad at all and can see a ton of potential here with the film crew and actors. It wasn’t too bad just a bit drawn out that’s really it. As comments say there is many who did enjoy it and That’s all that matters. I hope you guys continue to produce films and I’m sure everyone will do just fine here. :) I don’t want to be a jerk just giving my opinions as sometimes it helps in future productions to hear what people think who’ve watched and gave honest opinions on it. :) Anyways great job none the less like I said I’m not a pro and can’t make anything this good so don’t ever Get discouraged. Xx
