Inspired

So yesterday I saw the new horror movie called Us and it was amazing! Jordan Peele is someone who inspires me to make movies because all of his movies so far have been so well done and unique. Peele knows how to make a good horror movie and I think that's rare in today's world. When I finished watching the movie I realized that there were elements in the film that are like our short film and the movie inspired me to make those elements even better.

There's a huge plot twist at the end of the movie and that made me realize that it's still possible to use plot twists in a movie without it looking cheesy. The plot twist ends up making sense once you think about other scenes in the film and that's exactly what I want our short film to do. Peele left little hints leading up to the plot twist and the audience doesn't realize the hints until you think about them or rewatch the movie and our short film does that too because we're going to leave small hints that show that the doll is actually a person being held hostage. I want our short film to be something you have to watch twice in order to see the hints and I really hope we can achieve that.
