This is Not a Test - Short Horror Film 

Reminds me a bit of the 3 days of darkness, how you can't leave your house and the demons will attempt to lure you outside by pretending to be people you know.

Really love the idea, cuz normally when people talk about ghosts and other paranormal stuff, it’s always about someone alone or in a small group, but a paranormal entity that affects an entire country? Like a ghost god that literally eats everyone in the country who opened their door? Unimaginable!

CONGRATS ON THE NEW ROOMMATE!!! I loved how you made the creature come to life, the flashlight eyes were a genius idea

Nicely done! Definitely getting some Purge vibes from that announcement at the beginning!

I really like the fact that this is a paranormal anomaly what affects the entire nation.

To me, a short film that actually managed to scare me is extremely impressive. I normally go for psychological horror, and have seen a lot of creepy stuff- but this was so good. I’m shocked. Keep up the good work!

What a scary film , anything to do with stairs when you look through the gaps and see something horrible and then hear the most awful scary noise like that is enough to make you die of fright , I know I bloody would .😱😱😱😱

I absolutely love how this film and the stairs seem to be connected!

this is impressive! i am addicted to watching horror shorts on youtube and, to be honest, i mostly just watch videos or channels that have tons and tons of views/likes. not anymore! you just proved that even if a video doesn’t have a thousands of likes or a channel doesn’t have millions of subs, that doesn’t reflect that quality of the content in any way. i can definitely see your channel getting huge!

Constructive criticism: The internet search scene at the start was merely repeating what we already knew, and so felt pointless and dragged on for too long, for such a short film. The staircase scene on the other hand was extremely good at ramping up the tension, keeping us waiting for *something* to happen for several seconds was a very good thing. The biggest issue though is that there was no real way to empathize with the main character who appeared to be either suicidal or a Darwin Award contestant (and ultimately winner). I guess you didn't manage to find any actually good reason to make him leave his apartment, but at the very least it would have been more plausible if he'd heard the voice of someone he knew and cared about... Also the final monster reveal may have dragged on for too long to produce that much fear (there's a reason why jumpscares work better than extended shots of monsters). As soon as the lamp started flickering the plot became predictable and the ending known, and so there wasn't any (or much) tension left. All in all it had a few flaws but it still packed a nice punch and the 'broadcast emergency' premise was a very, very good idea, so just keep improving :)

This is mind blowing! I can't describe how great it is. This is severly underrated. The Horror Factor went totally crazy, my heart is beating faster than ever😂😱

I like how the Stairs and this film are connected. And the opening shot is great, with the slow push out, sound and voice over. You have a great eye for composition and atmosphere. Good job.

Keep it up. Wud love to see a longer version. Looking forward to seeing more

Leaving his own flat during a time of big trouble while not even locking door behind himself ? Hell...

He shouldn't have left his door unlocked and slightly open

HOW DO YOU ONLY HAVE 40 SUBS ONLY? That was amazing!

When in doubt stay inside. Why do they always come out.

You made this film in one weekend...Awesome job👍🏼

This is absolutely outstanding, and if you keep releasing stuff like this, I have no doubt your channel will boom. I’ll be releasing a “reacting to horror shorts” video soon, and yours is the second one. Bravo!!

That was really cool, I hope you make more short fillms. Was the "creature" at the end stock footage from somewhere? It looked really good, and the gray color it has despite that warm light being pointed at it made me think stock footage.

A future Stephen king of film..well done

this was really great, good job! and that jump scare scared the living daylight out of me, but that's good, because it means its scary.

Great job! I’ve been binge watching some horror and horror-adjacent short films recently and this really stands out despite being from a smaller channel. Please Keep this up! Awesome job on the emergency broadcast and keeping the suspense up throughout the film. ❤❤❤

This was made perfect! We need more horror films.

That was creepy!!!!! Well done!

Really good. The jumpscare really scared me.

Moral: Follow instructions, dipstick! Well done short, kudos!

genuinely terrifying,,, only thing is that the eyes at the end were a bit cheesy but other than that,, this was amazing

I love this because there’s a monster and all you can do is stay still or run

You deserve more subscriber!!

Wow that was very very creepy, the way things are at the moment, this sought of thing could happen. Great acting and brilliant story. Thank you.

this is really killer!! for a quick solo project this is really impressive

Great use of lighting, loved the look. 🔥

Moral of story, take heed to what is being said on the National Broadcasting Warning.

Really well done, especially for how quickly it was made!

That kept my attention Great job all involved. Creeeeeepy

this storyline youve built is so good

Really good, I'm impressed! Thank You 💖

Wow, that was fantastic. Great feel and super creepy! Keep it up!

Well done 👏

Very good 👍 I liked that one.

Well done!

I've often wondered if in real life they would use basic instructions with no context as to why haha

I want a sequel!❤

Beautifully done!

So gruselig😮

Nice job. Love your style.

Where have you been hiding!! This is amazing

Whoaa, this short reminds me of the RU-vid horror series 'Mandela Effect' really cool!

Yo the end made me think that maybe it came in after he left, tried to take out the light, failed and got caught in it instead, it knew the light was gonna go out it just was a matter of time...

Yet another horror movie character who dies of, essentially, never having seen a horror movie before. lol Pretty good, especially for something you put together in a weekend. I would agree with another commenter who said the final shot goes on a bit too long - when I saw the mottled gray skin of the Thing, I was like, "oh, fuck!" and I think it would've been more effective to go from that to the light flickering and dying, and then that's the end. But a decent short nonetheless.

Oops. He shoulda heeded the warning. Thanks for the video!

Love it 😀. Excellent job 👏

Cool monster, Great film good job 👍👍

Very suspenseful🙂

I followed the instructions till I saw it wasn’t real 😂

Great job. Thanks.

Wow, intriguing stuff! ❤

Must be a strange larvae!

Very nicely done for a weekend project. I couldn't have done it in a month of Sundays!

Great short dude

♥️🔥🔥

The sound design is awesome

Great video! You’d deserve mores subs!

Great job!!

this is fire. my girlfriend covered her eyes the whole time. Impressive ❤️❤️❤️❤️

Bro your underated fr man 👏

That was awesome

VERY nice job!!!

Wow that was creepy

SCP project well done

Also turn on subtitle.

Watched this on cuestar's stream!

I may be wrong, but isn't this an scp event?

on the thumbnail it shows pyramid head it would be more creepier if you put pyramid head doing that sounds on those creepy long stairs down the building by drawing his sword

Damn it Napoleon!

But this was very very IMPRESSIVE

I dont like the ending, but it was still well made! A lot of suspense built up in such a short amount of time.

I have a currently published book, a collection of horror stories, available now. I think most of them could be adapted into effective short films. If you're interested, feel free to reply in the comments

I don't like that he opened the door. I would have preferred the horror of not knowing and him fighting the fear and interest at the same time. I mean, the state warned him in an official message. He shouldn't even let friends and family in, and he opens the door for a random stranger. Come on... But besides that it was well done.

Stupid is what stupid doe’s 😂☠️

😳😎😉

_you can stay where you are.. but never touch any weapons or pills.. just talk to me, and your money won't "go away" forever.._ ✓

I wonder if this was at all inspired by the whole Covid-19 staying indoors thing.

Entendi nada

I really enjoy that I'm glad it got him because he was stupid and he did everything wrong. Ladies and gentlemen this is what you don't do.

This video is: ✔ Life changing ✔ Informative ✔ Inspiring ✔ Heartwarming ✔ Useful ✔calming ✔Enjoyable ✔ Other

Lead died because he is an idiot. That there is a monster inside when he goes back was obious, because you showed the door not closing. And the stair scene was predictable. It took too long.

The actor kinda looks like young andrew garfield.

Good video, but the protagonist was a bit of an idiot.

Can I use your video and I will tag your channels name. 🥺I like itt

The uneven fingernails 😢 ..no hate juuust a pet peeve 😅

the main character is a homosexual

This is based on catholic religion and there will come a day when this is going to happen, believe in Jesus and be spared from all this, his children are not subject to wrath.

Hi I’m Dominick’s little sister and this is just to scary for my liking sorry

I can't hear the phone and door conversations. This is not a horror film, it is boring.

idk if i liked or not.. not my type not enough action
