He's clearly not cut out for that sort of work
Strewth, this just grabs you by the lapels and keeps screaming into your face right until the end. Super-disturbing - great acting and cool effects. Great work!
Really really fantastic work!! Polished and professional in every way! Not to mention disturbing as hell! Great job and great future ahead!
this is about us clicking Like button on every short horroor film
One of my favorite horror shorts of the 2023 festival season! Pure nightmare fuel, in the best way.
This was amazing and disturbing. Well done.

Thank you Jason
Absolutely phenomenal cinematography and performance.
I'm starting to feel sorry for these internet content moderators ! Terrifying short film with Clive Barker-like tones. Cast and crew - I don't know whether to thank you or sue you ! If you set out to scare me, you succeeded ! All the best !
I wonder if this is how internet content moderators feel irl 🤣
That was a wild ride - hope I never need a job that bad. Excellent acting and special effects; kudos!
the effects used over the man in the computer creates this surreal bad trip vibe very eerie ❤
Great job Burt!
Very good short. Although it would benefit from behing a full length movie. Could be amazing.
dude… this was different. the cinematography, casting, was incredible. only bad thing is i want much more!!! omw to binge all ur others😋
Damn, this was good! Well done!
This is what I call satisfying horror! Very good one.

Wow!! This was an awesome short film!! Very engaging and looked great!! The actors were believable and sold it! I look forward to watching more of your work! (Just subscribed!)
During the Iraq war I had the horrible pleasure of having to watch thousands of hours of AQI torture videos that we got from raids. Shit still haunts me
Phenomenal! The sound design is crazy!
Wow so DARK but BEAUTIFULly made - story, dialogue, composition, acting! Great job!
*Magnificently horrifying!* ✨🖤👻🖤✨
Such a great production. Love the color grading.
Why did he even come to do this sort of work when he visibly can't handle it? Lmao.

When he listened to the voicemail we can hear that he was searching a job for a while, so maybe he didn’t have a choice
Great short , love it
This is quite good. This is one of the few shorts that I think would actually work better as a slow-burn movie though.
Acting 💯 directing 💯
Amazing piece!! Never even thought of this! ❤
This was phenomenal.
Really enjoyed this! Glad I stumbled upon you, keep creating. Also am I weird for thinking this would be a cool job lol.

Brilliant work! Im very impressed... i want more now, just like those viewers clamour for more more more...
You guys did a great job!
Perfect short!,,,
This was really great. Awesome concept, executed extremely well. Best horror film I've seen in a while. I love psychological horror.❤
What a great what a great short definitely top 10. Wow great storyline great actors. This definitely should get 50,000 views in the next two or three months absolutely top 10. This is excellent excellent excellent🎉🎉🎉🎉
good one....thanks
Amazing short!
crazy stuff. well done. we need to keep in mind, there are people out there that actually do this for a living, CPS etc. i cant imagine the horrors they view daily.
Amazing work in all respects
Brilliant! True artistic genius doesn't require a long runtime but this one definitely deserves and is capable of it! :D What is the most haunting part of this genius? . . Those recordings are all sourced from real life, which is therefore our lives, which therefore means WE are the main character! THE TRUE HORROR OF THIS IS UNDENIABLE! This is the value of art.
I’ve watched a quite a few horror shorts on here, this is definitely one of the better ones
awesome!
Yeah real good this video ❤one of the best
Enjoyed it Michael! Original.
Wow, this was really well made. Good stuff 🍻

I think they didn’t brief him well on the job if he cracked that fast
Very, very good
Awesome movie!
Pretty good.
This was better than the horror movies I see nowadays, didn’t expect it.
After watching so much gore back in the day...i refuse to anymore because now i hate humans and don't trust a soul. I'm talking FACES OF DEATH days, Rotten, Liveleak, ect. 😢 Then, there was my forensic nursing book. I can't get those visions out of my head. Amazing film, man.

It's better not to trust humans than trust and get betrayed. It's better to get immunizied through screen than get the plague oc the real deal. I got the plague and today I can't feel anything. Not fir dyinv babies, noflt for tortired kids, nothing. I'm empty. You git lucky you got to know what people can do before they did it to you.
Really good🔥
Haha it feels wrong watching this at 3pm in the after. Noone but no need hide behind a pillow then lol x
This channel is definitely going to blow up! I can see this moving to Shudder, and then on the big screen, much like Late Night with the Devil and independent film channel or IFC. I have watched almost all of @Alter horror, movies, and have ran out of good films on KZread, and thankfully, I found this channel! I will be watching Viral next.🎉 Subscribing!
Wow very well made
Incredible and brutal,.
This started off great then went off into left field
Great film ! Can’t wait until my films get this lvl

Oh hey this is my job :(
This is Nth Room Level shit. Terrifying, disgusting, and saddening all balled up into one, this is an epic short that will only become more relevant with each passing year. I wish it was different...I really do. 😢
That’s my dream job.
Reminds me of a Filipino movie entitled DELETER.😨
Dang quit on the first day
Wait....who's the actor in the beginning. I recognize his face.
This was very good for the most part, but the very end was meh! Other than that, a very impressive short.
👍🏿
I enjoyed it but at the same time, I didnt understand it. Did he just go insane and hallucinate all that? The ending confused me a bit.

I don't think that was hallucinations.It seems to me ,he became just another victim As you can see his video is being reviewed by another guy.

Insaaanee
He looks like an Asian Michael Keaton
disturbing- what a horrible job- I knew someone who reviewed vids - they were scared for life-
As scary as a second Trump Presidency!!!
