Bullies Are the Worst! ALTERS Latest Short, HERE THEY BE MONSTERS, is Horrifying & Heartbreaking
ALTER released a new horror short this weekend. Here There Be Monsters, written and directed by Drew MacDonald, is a heartbreaking and horrifying meditation on bullying. It’s an accomplishment for its ability to produce extreme shivers without any dialog–and for some awesome practical creature effects. So where are there monsters? Not someplace exotic, rather someplace mundane–which makes it even more terrifying.
Give Here There Be Monsters a spin embedded at the top of the article.
Synopsis:
After incessant bullying on the bus ride home, a young girl falls asleep and ends up trapped inside the school bus at the empty depot, but her frustration quickly turns to dread when she sees something lurking in the vast dark yard – something big – and Elki’s going to have to summon up every piece of courage she didn’t know she had if she’s going to survive the night.
Here There Be Monsters stars Savannah Foran-McDaniel, Jordan Small, Tyallah Bullock, and Toby Barron as the monster.
