Reviews
I was fortunate enough to catch "Tickle" at the HorrorHound Weekend Film Fest in Cincinnati. There were many excellent films shown, and this was one of the best.The short is shot beautifully, and very well acted. This is no small feat when working with child actors. The atmosphere is both fun and scary, and the payoff is a satisfying one.I won't spoil the fun -- just check this one out! It will definitely "Tickle" your horror fancy.Looking forward to seeing more from Bonfire Films -- their feature "The Hanover House" is even higher on my wish list after seeing this short.
