More About "Laboratory Conditions":
At a hospital, late one night, a physician discovers that one of her patients is missing, and likely has passed away, as he was not expected to survive the night. The physician tracks the body to a nearby medical school, where students are in the midst of an illicit experiment. The physician faces an ethical dilemma that puts her clinical judgment up against the amoral ambition of the chair of the graduate school of neuroscience. Even if the doctor can save her patient, what about the next one? And the one after that? At what point should human compassion outweigh research science and “the need to know”?

People are commenting that they'd watch this if it were a longer movie. I would too. But I like the fact that there's no wasted time in this. Just a solid story in a very short time.

@vincemartinez171 5 месяцев назад

Making it longer would only drag out the events leading up to the point where this short film takes place, perhaps even beyond. I think the ending is the perfect point to end, opening the chamber would turn the story into a full blown horror movie.

They would have big names if this was the 90’s. But the fact is that for older women, parts are few and far between. I mean hell, they even felt like they had to cast someone young for “Napoleon” to play his wife, when in reality the real Josephine was a decade older than him. So it’s not really much of a mystery.

It must be really, nice for these actors and actresses to get a break from the insanity of AAA projects and do smaller, shorter more cohesive passion projects like these. Since acting is definitely an artform I imagine doing high quality, short film projects like these helps keep creative juices flowing while providing an outlet for their art. Plus, these short films usually, rock!

Awesome Easter egg at 1:45 mark! The radio from the ambulance is playing American DJ Art Bell who was the original host of the nightly aired paranormal-themed radio program Coast to Coast AM and its spinoff named Dreamland. Bell covered taboo topics ranging from UFOs to other unexplained phenomena.

@JoeRussellProductions Год назад

I actually got to speak to Art a couple of times before he passed away. I was not going to include a clip of his show without his permission. He originally said no... but he came around and ended up saying yes! I can't imagine the film would feel the same without his voice in that scene. Glad you caught it!

@MMAGamblingTips Год назад

@@JoeRussellProductions Hell yea!! Art was the original and one of the few that had the balls to actually speak out on the paranormal and not make people out to be whack jobs. He was a mainstream DJ that gave average people a platform to tell the world these crazy stories long before there was an Internet where anyone could say what they wanted. It’s cool you got to talk to him. I would love for him to be alive and know that NASA and the US government is basically acknowledging the existence of UFOs!

Marissa Tomei was the only one that could see the spirit of the old man and then he was able to go to heaven, but then something broke in malevolent spirits. By the way, they looked so cool! This would have been a story I would have loved to see in full length.

I think the docter could always see the dead. However usually they move on quickly, to soon for her to see them. The girl that was singing, you could see her carrying a baby in the box. But she was also outside the box. I think that was her daughter who was pregnant when she died. That thing they trapped was in my opinion satan trying to get the man his soul before god could. When it was stuck i think it transformed into the docters daughter(the girl that was singing) to trick the docter in to letting it out so it could take more souls. I do think the other docter who wanted to go inside didn’t die as i think that demonic creature can only take the souls of the dead.

Thank you for making this. I love shorts and this one didn't disappoint. It's normally a bit frustrating to read comments from people who can't just enjoy what there is without having to have it all laid out for them. Some people are so hungry for sequels and feature-length reproductions when the short if perfect as it is.... but in this case, it's just ironic, given the subject of the short.

@JHJHJHJHJH Год назад

Second most frustrating is when people write out what they've just seen as if it's adding something to the conversation. I like to read the comments to get other takes on these shorts and little details I may have missed. It's usually an interesting conversation. But I do have to chuckle when someone just writes out what they've just seen as if it's some profound observation. What is the purpose of doing this?

Wow what an ending. If you're going to do a cliff hanger then this is how you do it. This type of short makes you want to see more big name actors and actresses doing a short film. The quality with this one was top notch and the story was compelling. The soul has always been linked to faith and this one explores the idea of finding scientific proof. I love that the story did not shy away from the obvious ethics involved. The special effects looked fantastic and the malevolent/evil entity was legit terrifying. Driver and Tormei were excellent and surrounded by a strong supporting cast. Great work to all involved from writer, director, cast and crew. This was a great watch and a high recommend. Peace.

This should be a feature length film its simply awesome the acting, the effects the atmosphere please take this a step further

@LindaB651 Год назад

Soo much going on in this film that still needs to be explored/explained! Wonderful short, great acting, great premise- now I wish to see more, please.

@charlessomerset9754 7 месяцев назад

Brilliant film. I see a lot of comments on short films talk about production values. This defines production values. This would be great as an old fashioned theatrical short before the film. People would be talking about it for years. Stuff like this could actually bring people back to the theater.

@ASurfgirl Год назад

This was EXCELLENT! Omg! This needs to be a full length movie!

@calzman Год назад

That was sick!! Holy crap man. I dont think we explore these concepts enough but you guys nailed it!. A full length movie of this would be great. Good job!!

@themug406 8 месяцев назад

A full length movie would not be great

@moisesd5459 Год назад

A truly excellent short film. Suspense and pacing really created that immersive atmosphere. Acting is nothing short of excellent and I particularly like the quirks of the ensemble. If it becomes a full length, I'd be happy to purchase a copy!

@user-wh4rw1qb7o Год назад

what imagination! one of my all time favorite Alter features. something of this quality deserves a full length feature.

@bgimagesound 9 месяцев назад

That was great one. I loved how doctor's curiosity shifted twisting the plot. It's a 10!

@prettyinpink2842 Год назад

I absolutely loved this! The concept of where the soul goes &/or what you might accidentally let it is fascinating. Perfectly cast. It gave me all kinds of vibes from Hideaway to Thirteen Ghosts. I would love to see more. 🖤💕🖤

Now THAT is a perfect sci-fi horror film! Acting, length, cinematography... Driver/Tomei are perfect...

Oh my gosh, that was really good. It’s been a while I don’t watch such a good triller. Congratulations to you guys.

@SarahDuke01 Год назад

Absolutely love this! And Tomei’s character, wow! She willingly damned her own soul to save so many others.

@jadedandbitter Год назад

No, they want revenge on Minnie Driver, not her. They're not looking at Tomei; they know who their enemy is and where she is. Chances are Tomei will be fine. Driver's character will not be.

Well written, and well acted. A lot of people are saying that they want a full-length movie version of this story, but it would have to be as good, or better. This is damn good as is.

@ellawhite322 10 месяцев назад

finally someone says this. if this was a movie, it would lose its element and feel because they would add unnecessary scenes to make it longer.

Can you PLEASE tell us you're at LEAST THINKING about doing more with this piece? I'd LOVE LOVE LOVE to see what happens when the door gets opened! I wouldn't even complain if you ended it with the demons killing everyone, at least I'd know what happened!

@skynotaname2229 Год назад

What I love about this is your short films are so well done they could be full length movies. In my opinion that also just shows how unnecessary it is for all stories to be an hour and a half long. If this was a movie we'd find out all about the doctor, the man, each of the supporting characters, they'd stretch out her hunt for the body. And finally, in the final 5-10 minutes of runtime they'd maybe show us what happened when they opened the box.

@BrownsdragonStudios 6 месяцев назад

Yeah, just imagine if people started treating every minute in a movie as valuable as a short film, I bet these movies would feel so much more substantive. I think it also shows that the "rules" of traditional storytelling aren't meant to be followed strictly. In this short, I didn't need a long intro (or exposition whatsoever) to the doctor protagonist because I learned a lot about her through the actions she took and the words she choose to say.

@wingponymedic2360 Год назад

Why do people keep saying "this needs to be full length"? Do you realize this is great BECAUSE its not full length? A 15 minute story stretched out to 90 minutes with what? A romantic sub-plot? Side characters as comic relief? A lunch scene in the cafeteria with 8 minutes of exposition? No This is a short, they tell the story, show the story, end the story And the story they tell, is a great story

@JoeRussellProductions Год назад

A very good point!

I would, 1000%, without a doubt, watch a full length movie-hell, even three hours of this-this is such a great idea, everything was just amazing, and oh my God, I have no words for how perfect this film is, I love it so much.
