A teen drops out of a gang when they mug his father for his pencil.

A man volunteers to take part in an experiment that attempts to analyse human behaviour under extreme conditions of terror.

Belly

Through a series of auditions, a young actor in New York City struggles with his identity.

A boy grows a seed into a flower while the world around him marches on.

A man is being haunted by a masked stranger. The only language used in the movie comes from three (inter) title cards and a few sentences of sermon-like talk in Danish. Some of the talk is modified citations from the bible and similar sources.

You'll never look at a statue of the Virgin Mary the same way again. Based on the assertion that divine apparitions aren’t what they always appear to be, Vesuvius is an interesting take on the psychopath with Catholicism smacked against the background. Gio Alvarez provides a convincing portrayal of a madman, and people can even argue if this short inclines toward the supernatural or the psychological. Whereas Grave Torture uses darkness impeccably, Vesuvius plays with light so well.
