Without a doubt, Halloween is my favorite holiday, and I was super excited when I read about Hulu’s HULUWEEN FILM FEST… presented by Hulu… Anywho, the film fest is basically 8 short films distributed by Hulu, where the winner is awarded $10,000 to be put toward a full length production.

We’ve been watching them over the course of the month, we don’t binge, we savor… and some of them have been pretty great for short films. After mulling on it, I have to say that my favorite is “Carved” by Justin Harding

It was perfectly warped. A touch of “Evil Dead” in tone but without being too silly. Slightly demented, in the best way.

A close second was “Horrifying Sounds” Directed by, Rodney Ascher and written by Basil Quartermass.

This one is the kind of an unsettling spooky that sticks with you. A truly haunting darkness where the ending isn’t as much as a shock, but more the blithe reactions of the listeners.

The rest of my list rounds out in this order

• Lippy
• The Hug
• The Rizzle
• The Box
• The Gillymuck
• Urn
