@@midnightgir6 some do and some don’t. The last group project I had, which was just last semester, we had a member that did almost nothing and we had to let our instructor know. She asked us to write up a statement about what he did and did not contribute. I don’t think she took it into consideration in the end because she took quite a few points off our project even though there were only two of us trying to scramble last second to write the sections that the other guy didn’t do

Laura and Kassie are the kind of students that I wouldn't never want to be placed in a group with, always the one who makes it look like they are the ones staying on top of the entire project while making others look like they aren't contributing much to it. In any group of students at any academic level, there is always a Laura. And for every Laura in a group there also always a Kassie, the one that doesn't really contribute anything and is always negligent of the group work.

Really brilliant short movie. Horror that stems from the inside out. A very inventive and contemporary take on psycholigical horror. Really intelligent storytelling. Great acting. Didn't even know movies like this were still even made. Congratulations!!

She's giving Joker/Harley Quinn and Carrie vibes and I'm here for it.

That girl is a really good actor. Just excellent film all around. Well done!

i rly like this girl ~ she's naturally beautiful + completely on point with the role she's playing

That was brilliantly done ~ like everyone else I felt so bad for her, she was just seeking a friendship but no one could spare anytime at all. The twist at the end is probably not far from reality for some~ loneliness can be so consuming and create many psychological cracks in a persons psyche. Congrats on this Masterpiece~ I was laughing with her in the end! 🥳

Hope the lead ends up having a career, she did a really nice job here.

All I CAN SAY IS THIS IS ONE OF THE BEST SHORT HORROR FILM I'VE EVER SEEN.

The main character acts well. I like the creativity here. Most horror shorts are totally uncreative. Good job.

jocelyn wadland did a really good job in this. Usually these short films you have to sit some pretty bad acting. But she was very good. Cool premise and well done.

Very good acting indeed! Anyone in any of these situations with roomates or classmates i'm sure recognized each of these charactes/personalities or may even BE them. Gosh it takes so so so little to be kind, she cpuld have just told her thank you but im not interested from the beginning instead of leading her on, pretending to be nice and saved both of them ( and the guy) alot o trouble. Also: you never know who has a demon thing waiting for the right jerk to force their inert dark powers to awaken, soooo.......

Excellent! The demon is her friend, and she'll never be lonely again.

Oh shit, looks like Carrie actually got to go to college!

Jocelyn Wadland is fantastic as Mira! Poor Mira was so fragile and lonely, just wanted to belong, I wanted to give her a hug and protect her . And the end , lol, I was totally fine w/ what she did and would have aquitted her if this was real life.

'Mira' is 'look' in Spanish. Not sure if the name was picked for this intentionally but I thought it was interesting.

OMG...Mira is sooo cute, soooo nice and sooo warm...she doesn't deserve be treated bad or tormented by some damn entity, who should be in that situation, is her damn stepsister. I wish I could be there for Mira and make some company to have a good time watching the videos that she wants to see, talking with her and never leaving her alone! I liked how it ended...excellent!

Dude. This was INSANELY good. I cried. I screamed. I was nervous. I was excited. I was rooting for her. And then, even when I wasn’t, I still kinda was. Haha. THIS IS A MASTERPIECE!!!!!

I cant believe theres so much sympathy for the devil on this thread. Mira was the bad guy and everyone is so crazy in having empathy for her. So she had her feelings hurt, we all have. This makes it okay for her to murder? You can say every serial killer has sick and sad and sometimes devastating experiences but it doesn't take away from the horrible things they chose to do. She chise to murder her housemates because her feelings were hurt. She chose to screw over her classmates because she felt some kind of way. None of this is acceptable behavior for someone decent. She is the bad guy and doesn't deserve your sympathy. Tell me you wouldn't be creeped out if you're housemate was hanging out in your room while you werevaway, touching all your things, using your stuff. Seems they trued hanging out with her, but she was only about what she liked. She could easily tell they weren't interested yet still pushed ahead instead of trying to find any kind of common ground. No! Stop siding with the serial killers! People shouldnt be murdered. Period.

Wow ❤ this is a beautiful psychological movie. To me, it talks about the danger of not being able to develop assertiveness and plain self-love. Nobody can sustain forever being treated like a doormat and pushing down own needs. If not learnt in the healthy way, it can explode one day in a bad way through what she sees as her “monster” inside. Her needs became a monster because she did not listen to them. You, author of this beautiful movie, showed me myself 30 years ago ❤ minus the people killing, of course 😊

That last scene with Anna and Alex on either side of Mira gave me the chills.

Dressing in other ppls clothes, drinking their stuff and using their makeup is weirdo behavior!! One reason I’d never get a roommate.

Honestly loved it. It was amazing. The story was fantastic, the execution was flawless. The acting could've used some more drama, but everything else was done fantastically. I'd think this was a Jason Blum or G. D. Torro

Great film. Serious Twilight Zone vibes. The lead actress is superb, her quasi-comedy routine her best moment. Serious vulnerability there. Well done, ma’am!

Really good film. I enjoyed more from watching what happened with Mira than the circumstance of her demon keeping her awake. I think it all contributed to what happened at the end. Seems she could have something that inherently made people think she was a creep, or her roommate was able to convince everyone with how little interaction she got to have with her schoolmates. Fact is: it's an impressive film and makes me want to see more films with the same team. :)

Прекрасно. Определено, definitely one of my most favourite horror shorts, and I've watched a lot of them. I feel close to Mira's character - although now I am older - without friends, noone liked the things I watch, nor the music I listened to, nor myself, I'm used to be all by myself and, of course, my cats. I just don't have any superpowers, lol. I like the Demon thing as well :)

She’s so sweet.

Jocelyn is an phantastic female Actor, this Roll is far away from easy playing. Respect 🌹🙏

Absolutely LOVED it!!!!!!

She's like a dark Matilda

I feel that there is no moral here. You have different crowds of folks in the movie. The protagonist is introverted and lonely. That's not unusual. Her roommates are just the opposite of her, i.e., the opposite of academically inclined and diligent. They are also also not very sensitive, but that's probably with each other, not just her. They seek gratification from partying rather than intimate bonding. She probably wouldn't have enjoyed joining them -- quite the opposite. I can't imagine the social dynamic unfolding in any other way. In fact, it seems contrived for her to be roommating with them to begin with, but I guess these things happen from time to time. She eventually has to find people like her, though that is not easy. I see nothing unusual about the oil-and-water incompatibility between her and her roommates. That's why I don't see a lesson here. The disturbing thing is that gruesome death should be the just result of such a rather common incompatibility. It's more a reflection of psychopathy, in my view. Now there is one point of oddity. That fact that her Mom didn't call her back. It depends on the mental health of her Mom. If the Mom is also contending with issues of her own, then that is the reality. Or if the Mom is simply incapable of empathizing enough to remember to call back, yes, that's a personal challenge that the protagonist will have to learn to navigate.

Absolutely love this take! I see too many people defending the protagonist. In my opinion. It's clear she doesn't care about other people's feelings. She notices her neighbours are the partying types, why not try and party with them once in a while? She sees they're not enjoying the movie, why do you still expect them to watch another one with you? She seems quite selfish, in my opinion. Only wanting to do things that benefit her. Even the group project she took on wasn't a selfless act, she did it because she wanted the validation from the group. It's all about her. That's why she can't fit in.
