Boring, long, and too preachy.

It is a great short film. and this is far to be surprising. because it does not propose only a story but impecable special effects and tension, reminding the doubts about the real side of things front to our senses. and this is the basic virtue of each short film of David Sandberg.absence of the desire to impress his public. but to give the right story about each viewer deep fears.Cam Closer is an admirable example.

Cam Closer is a short horror film by David Sandberg, the creator of Lights Out and Pictured.Within this short horror film, our main character tries to take an aesthetic photo to post online, only to find her apple is not showing on camera. Looking around the room, she finds an unconscious body on the ground of her apartment, and is obviously shocked. What comes next is pure suspense.I paused this way too much for a two minute horror short. This was brilliant. Sandberg really built up the suspense in this. My heart is still pounding now. The effects in this were absolutely spectacular and this may now be my favourite Sandberg short film to date.This was terrifying and I'm definitely a little more paranoid now, looking around my house. A solid nine out of ten and a definite recommendation.

"Cam Closer" is a very short horror film from 2013, only runs for slightly over 2 minutes and it was written by David F. Sandberg. He made quite a few of these little films and the plot is always very similar. A woman, usually played by his muse Lotta Losten, gets scared somehow through an invisible danger until, at the very end, the danger becomes real in some kind of supernatural form. This is all true here too. A woman witness strange occurrences on her smartphone, but instead of throwing it away, she can't look away and keeps watching. Bad idea! I like these Sandberg clips. I think he does a good job with creative writing and also his camera work is right the way it should be to make the film as memorable as possible. After having seen some of his works, I would call myself a fan. I also give this one here a thumbs-up. Go check it out.
