REVIEW - In Monster’s Hands (Directed by Christopher Sheffield). Content Warning.
Opening with a warning to viewers about "violent content" which is "based on true crime events", this short true-crime thriller hits the ground running and really doesn't waste time in telling a traumatic, difficult story.

REVIEW - Ghosts Moving Flowers and Physical Mediumship (Directed by Karl Fallon)
In recent years there has been a huge increase in the popularity of TV ghost hunting shows, and shows with a focus on subjects of the supernatural and the paranormal on both sides of the pond, with shows like Ghost Adventures and Help! My House is Haunted spawning multiple series, and even celebrity specials, so this interesting documentary directed by Karl Fallon (Real Ghosts UK, Ghostcircle) should be well placed to capitalise on this growing interest.

REVIEW - Don’t Bet the Horse you Rode in On (Cole Brakebill)
Don’t Bet the Horse you Rode in On is a short film which was written, produced, directed by and stars only one man - Cole Brakebill. Cole, originally from New Mexico, later studied music production in Texas (the latter also being the state where this film is set and our story takes place), which evidently shows as there is a strong musical aspect to the storytelling here, as our protagonist, Morris Bellinger, a lone traveller (minus his steed) rambles through a vast and desolate landscape en route to a cattle market, his journey punctuated by interludes where he pauses to read letters from Uncle C.Y. in scarce patches of shade amid the dust and sun-baked rocks.
