Raven (Daniel Harris) never wanted to be a spiritual medium, he just
is, and to keep comparatively sane on his journeys through the world of
the dead that happen in his own subconscious, he drinks a lot of alcohol. Today
he's summoned to "the waiting room", where the dead are, well,
waiting for their further fate, and there he meets Marty (Bob Moore), who
has died from a heart attack, shortly after he has found out that his wife
(Codi Shandel Kline) has been cheating on him. Now he wants his revenge on
her, but despite his washed-up appearance, Raven is a wise man and shows
Marty another way. Most certainly an interesting take on the
spirit world, The Waiting Room manages to tell a very positive
story about a very sad topic, but without drifting into pure cheesiness.
Instead the short focuses on atmospheric filmmaking that's as close to
horror as can be (not that surprising since it's about the spirit world),
and that manages to steep its simple story in mystery. Really leaves you
longing for more, actually!
