A masked intruder breaks into Ethan's (Jay Allen Tucker) house one
night, kills his children in their sleep, stabs his wife to death right
next to where Ethan's sleeping. Then the intruder wakes Ethan up. Now of
course, Ethan is instantly devastated by finding out his wife murdered
besides him, but nothing could prepare him for the shock he gets when the
intruder reveals his true identity ... A nice horror short that
at first seems to follow all the beats of a home invasion shocker with
maybe little in terms of originality but nevertheless scoring high on the
efficiency chart. It's with the big reveal though that the film veers off
into a whole different direction that manages to deliver just the shock
needed to come across as really unsettling - in a way every devoted horror
fan will utterly enjoy.
