Omg, honestly I want to see more horror movies like that. Where the killers/monsters actually comedically struggle to kill someone.

I recommend Behind The Mask: The Rise of Leslie Vernon which manages to be both a hilarious pastiche of slasher movie tropes and a pretty good slasher movie all at once, it has a lot of scenes on the real-life difficulties slasher killers would face that are glossed over by the movies.

"Ugh, this isn't working, what should I do...I know, I'll go get a weapon that's even heavier, more awkward, and makes noise that she could hear, surely this will bring me success!"
Absolutely love how you can tell the killer is giving his all with the running, while the woman is just jogging leisurely. Makes it likely she escapes after the cut, too…

So first off he found a small hatchet lying around somewhere then when his poor cardio didn't help he buried it and went and found a chainsaw just lying around. Now she takes off and well he didn't catch her before even after she stops several times, just how is he going to catch her now while carrying a 10 - 15 pounds chainsaw. He is going to give himself a heart attack since his cardio conditioning is just plain horrible.

The fact that he probably booked it through the woods to cut her off and get a chainsaw is hilarious.
I never understood why people choose to drown out the noises of their environment with headphones listening to songs. Always be vigilant outside unsecure areas.

This reminds me of the banned Nike "Why Do Sports?" ad -- the one where the girl was chased from the house by a Michael/Jason clone [with a saw, if memory serves]. Dressed in kicks, shorts, and sports bra, she runs screaming into the darkness, easily out-distancing the wannabe killer, who ends up gasping and wheezing under a tree as we continue to hear her screams way-the-hell-off in the distance... Freaking hilarious.

This short encapsulates modern society, people lost in their own little world oblivious to the world around them. Only to notice a glitch in their matrix, & instead of running away they run towards their demise like a moth to the flame. Perfect & outstanding...

Fields can be quite anxiety-inducing. Being able to see everything coming at you and *knowing* it’s coming and being alone in that area and running being all you can do.

This is straight out of every Tom & Jerry chase scene
She was already warmed up from the beginning, that gave her an advantage right there, he could gotten severe cramps without proper stretching and warming up before starting the chase.

Indeed, always stretch before trying to murder someone!
This could have easily been the opening scene for a comedy/horror film.
I know this was supposed to be a horror but I couldnt help laughing. The persistence of the axe man is funny. The axe didnt work out, so he got a chainsaw, but he didnt give up lol
Colors are interesting. Very nice take.
She shouldn't have stop,at all just keep running
Great film-making (colors, location, music). Entertaining story as well. Over 2 minutes of continuous shooting is impressive 👍🏻
My Boy realized that it ain't gon work and went to get the Big Guns.
The origin scenario was verily enthralling. I liked the concept of the lady running in a slow speed contemporary while a serial killer is chasing her posteriorly with an axe also in a slow speed while the camera would immerse zooming in and out. I like how it's delineated the victim invariably clueless. I as well find it fascinating how ''The Texas Chainsaw Massacre'' character plays a role in too. Excellent job I must say!👍🏻👍🏻Horror is an inquisitive genre within it's diabolical & vice nature to capture one's curiosity & fear. An engrossing exposure that leads terrifying deeds that are being absorbed mentally & physically. I'm hoping for more content like this. Subscribed!
Some Qs - 1) why does she keep stopping? No one who takes running seriously does that. 2) why didn’t he throw the axe at her? 3) where the hell’d he get a chainsaw??

We seem to obliviously evade so many potential disasters in life by simply focusing on running forward. It's often when you stop to take a look around that they catch up with you.
Muito bom! Eu vim pelo refúgio cult do Brasil. 🇧🇷❤️
This is brilliant in so many ways. Congrats! Keep going.
Chainsaws would seem to be ALOT heavier than axes. Holding that chainsaw gave him a second wind?
Superb..Hallowe’en meets Monty Python..
Amazing idea and lovely shot. Enjoy a lot 👍
Loved it! 🔥🔥
Advancements in technology - the ax is slower than the electric saw. The poor woman learned that in the fastest, shortest - and most painful way. Thanks for the horror-comedy, good dish and good development, congratulations on all of you !

She might as well be walking with how slow she’s running 😂
So many people here in Colorado run and hike with their ear buds in. Im amazed there aren’t more animal attacks.
Who in their right mind runs and stops all the time?
brilliant 2 minute movie!
Great job!! Love the ending.
Well the whole irony is that we humans have a built-in 6th sense when we feel someone or something is watching us. In real life my instinct would've told me to keep on running if I sensed something awry like when she found that axe on the path, I would have high tailed it out of there. But in her case, her curiosity did her in. I keep hoping that somehow she managed to evade that chainsaw attack One more thing I wish to add is, where in the heck did that escaped criminal find an axe and a chainsaw so conveniently? I guess we'll never know. Great short though. Nice work.
Very good film. Lovely young woman. Funny and Scary.
Yes please, more horrors that the monster can virtually miss the target everytime attacking😅
People who just crashed on a prison transport bus on the highway sure have easy access to many murder weapons nearby.
The lesson of the story is don’t have ur earbuds turned up too loud

"Run, Jason. RUN!" -Vaas
Haha! Oh, this was funny! :'D The jogger switching over the radio channel in a classic horror-typical Too Dumb to Live move was the first laugh, and it only got funnier with the following gag! :'D Despite the main gag of the film leaning mostly into comedy, there was still a sense of horror-appropriate anxiety in me whenever the killer got really close. And the ending where the music stops, the camera is tight on the jogger, you're aware of how wild and devoid of civilisation for help her surroundings are, and you hear the revving is suspenseful... until you see WHAT the revving is coming from, and then the short flips right back into pure comedy! :'D :'D
He seems to run faster holding a chainsaw rather than a hatchet 🙄
