With people going inactive and deactivating, a lot of classic tumblr posts and also missed gems get lost because those connections get broken. Even on my own blog I forget about posts I made until I see someone in my activity reblog one of them- which then inspires me to reblog it myself because it was a good post and I want my new followers to see

Horror Short Films

Some of these short films may contain material that may be sensitive to some people. Watch at your own descretion.

Here we go, in no particular order.

1- EXIT Based on the short story by Harry Farjeon, this short film written/directed by William Zimbler is about a man who demonstrates a very unsettling “trick.” It stars Julian Glover (“Game of Thrones”, “The Empire Strikes Back”).

2- Playing with the Devil A short horror film based on the Japanese ritual of Hitori Kakurenbo or “One Man Tag” Terror ensues as the three sisters find out why they shouldn’t conduct such rituals

3- No Through Road Based on the Clifton Bunny Man urban legend, this found footage style short is about four 17 year old boys were found dead in their car at an abandoned farm, 10 miles from their hometown. This video contains the unedited footage from the camera belonging to one of the boys, also found in the car.

4-Lights Out David Sandberg won “Best Director” for the Who’s There film challenge for this unsettling 3 minute short. I suggest watching with your lights turned off.

5- The 3:07 Project The Conjuring’s production team put on a one-minute horror film fest called The 3:07 Project, so named in honor of the “devil’s hour,” when the movie’s most notable demon action happens. Vice and The Conjuring’s team invited four directors to make a 60-second film inspired by the “devil’s hour.” The video linked about is what the end result was.

6- 2 AM: The Smiling Man This film is based off of a story on the subreddit Let’s Not Meet. A man takes a late night stroll and encounters an unsettling stranger. The video and story both do a great job of taking something as comforting as a smile and turning it into something sinister.

7- Mama The short film that inspired Guillermo del Toro’s horror movie of the same name.

8- Alma This animated short is about a little girl and a creepy doll shop. One with a great ending.

9- Maniac A film crew follows two serial killers documenting their exploits. Directed by Shia LaBeouf and starring Scott Mescudi and Chris Palko.

10- There’s A Man in the Woods Another animated short film. This one is about a teacher who deals with a boy spreading false rumors around school. Oh, and it all rhymes.

You guys all know these dresses right? Both of these are made from thrifted linen skirts, so you can make one! Make sure the skirt can fit your chest, and you're ready to go!

Materials + tools : thrifted flared skirt, misc fabric scraps or lining fabric, embroidery threads or lace, scissors, scalpel/seam ripper, sewing machine, chalk, iron.

Step 1 - Lay out your chosen flared skirt. Material is important, go for something sturdy eg linen or needle cord. Find a scalpel/boxcutter/ seam ripper.

Step 2 - Remove waistband lining, waistband, and zip to use later. Use your seam ripper or scalpel etc to cut the stitches so we dont waste any material.

Step 3 - Lay skirt with zip gap at the back. Chalk/ mark round a sewing pattern or your favourite sundress to map out the neckline and arm holes should be.

Step 4 - Cut arm holes. Take waistband and cut in half for shoulder straps. Get your fabric lining/scraps ready. Mark round the straps and the top of the skirt onto your lining fabric and cut out. These pieces will help make your dress neat and strong! Make sure theres a space for the zip.

Step 5 - Sew your straps ; place fabric and lining right sides together and seam the long edges to make a tube with a gap at each end. Turn the tube inside out et voila. Iron both straps flat.

Step 6 - Sew your neckline ; sew sides of lining together. Place lining right side down on outside of skirt. Take your straps and tuck in between lining and skirt. Sew all around the top edge, including the straps. Flip the lining round to the inside and iron.

Step 7 - Add the zip, by any means necessary. It's hard, please do your best/ check out your preferred YouTube zip sewing tutorials.

Step 8 - try it on! This will help you figure out where to attach your straps to the back of your dress. Getting a friend to help is a good idea. When you have them where you like them, pin and sew your straps. You can also make your dress more fitted by taking in the sides or adding a waist tie.

Step 9 - Decorate! Lace? Embroidery? Collar? Doilies? Pockets??? Go wild!!!
