Synopsis

A woman runs to her car in fear in the parking garage. She thinks to herself “Why haven’t they fixed the cameras in this place yet? Everyone knows how unsafe these places are.” The garage is dark, deserted, and neglected. “How many missing children and assaulted women are required before operating cameras are mandatory?”

She seems angry at the lack of care by the building maintenance staff. She also doesn’t like Devon from the office. He’s a drunken misogynist, and she hates him. She watches him come out of the elevator. Wait— things aren’t quite what they seemed at first!

Commentary

It starts off a bit preachy, almost as if this is some kind of public service video, but then it escalates into a proper horror short. I definitely liked it!
