7 Minute Short ‘The Strangers: Origins’ is One of This Year’s Best Fan Films

Recently, I decided to make a “Prequel Short Film” to one of my favorite horror movies ever…The Strangers. It’s been getting a lot of good reactions from OG Strangers fans and I couldn’t be happier with how it came together! Watch the film below!

“The 7-minute short pitch perfectly taps into the vibe of Bryan Bertino’s The Strangers, centered on a young woman who’s being stalked by “The Man in the Mask”… - BloodyDisgusting

Check out this article about the film by BLOODY DISGUSTING: https://bloody-disgusting.com/videos/3539523/video-7-minute-short-strangers-origins-one-years-best-fan-films/?fbclid=IwAR2fpVS38AeVj1LvExlBT9cDLkpydaKGDUHryNncMhsuBr5lgBqg2aCX-ro
