That and that maybe she doesn’t keep her grief bottled up anymore

My interpretation is that the monster isn't actually real and that this is just a mother battling grief and post-partum psychosis. Now if you don't mind, I'm going to return to my sobbing.

I'll further add to this by saying I think the entity is meant to be the temptation of death. It's obviously quite creepy and terrifying, but it also held her gently while she stared fixated on the glowing urn, like she wanted so badly to join her baby on the 'other side'. In the end, she realized her own psychosis, and threw the urn, symbolizing her rejection of the idea of dying. All you can do, after all, is pick up the pieces and try to move on.

The fact she broke the vase an was tempted by the noise for a second at the end, showing a rebuilding of a life without the child, and throwing away the radios yer the demon was most likely figurative. I think its a good way of showing how we grieve in stages we dont do it all in one go we do braking down a wall an rebuilding it so to speak so the vase reminded me of that. Especially the idea of the missing hole in the centre, which often grief feels like a depression can feel like sort of "youll be okay, but things wont be the same"

This was so tragic. The mother looks like a very tired, emotionally exhausted grieving mother. This feels like getting inside the mind of a grieving mother. The sounds of her baby's cries and illness repeating in her head, the specter of pain lurking around the urn. Like the monster IS her grief and pain, but there's a little hope at the end for her healing and moving forward.

This was good, my theory was the baby's ghost was warning the mom about the entity and it fed on grief. Solid A+ Mr. Clark.

I really, really love the horror universe you build. It feels less like it's full of aggressive evil beings, and more full of "traps". You can be living your life and trigger a supernatural trap, allowing an evil entity that operates on its own strict set of rules to suddenly infect your life, and while you can successfully evade it/close the trap if you figure out the rules, if you don't recognize it quickly enough, you will die. It's a consistent vibe I get from your films, and a take on horror I've not seen before. I dig the hell out of it.

I like how bittersweet the ending is. The mother was in a lot of pain but in the end all of what she had to go through made her accept the death of her child. The movie starts with her staring at the urn, and it ends with her walking away from it. I also like that at the end you don't see anything that would indicate that the demon is still there (like through the cracks on the urn or smth). Makes me believe that she was haunted by her own grief and ,once she accepted the death of her child, she wasn't haunted anymore. (sorry if i made any mistake english isn't my first language)

Jesus Christ, that was an incredible short film, wow. The story was tragic, the noises of the baby quite frankly terrifyingly sad, the costume design and camerawork were incredible, this was truly beautiful.

I almost didn't continue watching after the intro; we have a one-year-old and the very thought of losing them causes physical reactions in me. This short is a great metaphor for grief. However, I found it odd that the creature was smiling; I feel like that took away from the metaphor, as if the "other" in this horror story had some kind of agenda. I think something meant to represent despair from loss would appear visually neutral (like a face with zero features or even just a blank expression), despite being an anguishing force. Not every monster needs to have a slasher grin, something that shows up a lot in your work. :) And trust me, this is not to take away from how well made this is: the cinematography, the lighting, the editing, the acting, the sound, all of it is fantastic work that you and the crew should be incredibly proud of. Amazing film, Dylan and co. As always, I can't wait to see what you make next.

This is so beautiful and sad, especially when the mother began to smile when she heard her baby in the urn. What really was impressive was the jump scare at around 6:35. The way you build tension of the monster holding the urn, and the way the baby's colorful lights momentarily lights up the terrifying monster genuinely horrified me. I was also thinking at the end that why didn't she just bury the urn, but then I remembered that it's still her child in the urn and that's what really shows the mother's love. Brava! :)

I'm sure I lack the strength to live thru the pain of losing a child, and I can't help but admire people who do so, I never really understood what fear was until my son was born. Not that I was fearless before him, it's just that, thinking back there I had really nothing to worry about, all of a sudden a new world of what fear is opened to me. It's my worst nightmare, if he is ever gone...I'm sure I wouldn't be able to handle it.

That. Was. So. GOOD! I've seen tons of these horror shorts, and while people seem to find many of them terrifying, I find them somewhat lackluster. This was refreshing!

I have not felt such genuine terror in a long while. That moment, when the lights turned on, was masterful.

From what knowledge I know about this. This was some sort of demon, spirit or entity what have you that clings on to a person's grief or memories of the lost and twists those to its will to trick the ones who are grieving into its trap to feed off of that struggle. If that's the case, very well done. I can't imagine what its like losing a child that came from within me. Something I bared for several months and grew from a tiny cellular seed and protected it all that time. All to be snuffed away all of a sudden. The emotion gained from that must be just so.. Extremely disruptive for the life you set out for and just completely unfair. I think that it portrays well in this short film in showing how dangerous, from a realistic point (not evil spirits), life changing scenarios can have on the mental health of women. Enough to make them go nearly insane just like what may have been going on with the mother. Its entirely possible that all the stress put this in her head because it is such a real thing that happens to mothers around the world. Losing their baby. Its like when little kids go to school and you don't think about what could happen to them. Then one day.. they're just.... GONE. For no reason except that they just happened to be there. It sucks.

Fantastic work. The creature reveal actually gave me shivers, the tension during the climax while not as horrifying as i would've expected still did the job and and i basically took that "mamma" as an hit damn.

Edit: actually here's my only complaint the ashes..... the urn seem nore important than the asces themselves, maybe i am missing something but it somehow feel like the priority are switched, like too much on the meaning insteading of thinking about how horrifying it must be for her to have the baby ashes on the hands.
