Horror Short Film "The Auteur" | ALTER | Online Premiere

Description:

Subscribe to ALTER on YouTube: 🔥 This horror is scripted. Your goosebumps are not. A male film writer begins to write his perfect, objectified female character to terrorise. However, he's not prepared for her to fight back... "The Auteur" by Bethany White #ALTER #horror #shortfilm Connect with the Filmmakers: More About "The Auteur": The Auteur is about entering a world of unseen expectations. That was what I connected with when I first read the script; someone pulling the strings, whose motives couldn't be deciphered until it was almost too late. I recognised my own fight to form my identity in a world where I was expected to be a certain way, and it felt meta being my first time directing as I was truly figuring things out as I went along. I've long turned to horror and thriller films to challenge and deepen my own experiences, including Chloe Okuno’s incredible work, so being on Alter alongside her fantastic short Slut is a massive honour. My one hope for audiences, aside from the massive fun to be had visually where the film draws from Argento, Carpenter, De Palma, is that someone recognises their own struggle and recognises that they too can take control of their own narrative.
