Scrag is the latest short horror entry from Hine’s Park Productions. Written and directed by Carlos J. Benitez, the film dives into the perilous uncertainty that arises when trust collides with vulnerability. What may seem perfectly mundane—a stranger offering help, a conversation in the dark—can often spiral into something far more sinister. Scrag explores this unnerving crossroads with tension and precision.

Unlit (2024) – Short film review

What struck me after viewing the short horror film Unlit is how much it resembled our current dysfunctional existence in the USA. The circumstances are dire and the tension is exceptionally elevated. The tight script written by Carlos J. Benitez wastes little time grabbing your attention. True to the film’s title, the absence of light sets the tone.
