IMDb reviewer wrote:
Short films seem to have had a real boom in recent times. They're a great place to start for aspiring filmmakers. One weak spot of some films is that their story is too thin for feature length. A short film is a great way to tell a simple story effectively. Made just in time for Halloween, 'The House That Cried Blood' is a tribute to all those great haunted house films of the 70s and 80s. Some tributes miss the mark, but the opposite is so of this project.
Pros: Well acted. Atmospheric direction. Creepy score. Great, spooky cinematography. Fast paced. A few great jolts. Reminds one of great 80s Horror.
Cons: Some cliches. We've seen all this before. A bit predictable.
Final thoughts: The makers of this short obviously know their stuff. If you love Horror of the 70s and especially 80s, this will put a smile on your face. Hell, it's better than a lot of films shown on the big screen these days. There's a lot of heart in it and I look forward to what the people at Sideshow Pictures come up with next.
