Hmm...
An interesting flash. Seems you put some work into it.
On the good side you managed to establish that creepy atmosphere which I expect was your goal, with the hinting shadows and well-chosen colors and music. On the other hand the whole graphics and choice of scenery gave the movie also a kind of 'surreal' feel. Don't misunderstand me, that's not bad, but you won't go past creepy if things just don't have that feeling of 'I'm there' which with surreal images can be hard to achieve...
I'd suggest trying a more realistic approach and covering scenes with shadows, letting them reveal only hints of events and movement (as you did, although perhaps even less obvious). Also add subtle soundeffects, perhaps mix dynamic and static scenes (you know... creepy scene... flash... undefined violent scene, that kind of stuff for instance :P), I suspect this way you'd move more towards scary from creepy, if that's what you would like :)
But anyway... just a suggestion, still a nice flash, although please avoid putting 'The End' at the end as it feels like a disappointment, where the viewer expected some point or especially creepy scene :)
Needed an scary ending
I found it deep, yet disturbing, but it lacked a strong ending. However, had you had someone jump out at the audience to get them such as the killer. A sudden jump out saying something like "Your Next" catching the viewer unprepared, would have made it excellent short clip.
It seems to me that the person, that is in the dark room hanging is one victim, and then the one with the knife is the second victim. The ending would indicate that the killer got the 3rd and was dragging him into the dark room. Thus, a story saying keep away from the dark? It was still very eye catching, with much promise!
great job but
just wow, its not that scary im only 13 and it didnt scare me at all, just the sounds made me jump but yeah whatever great flasg didnt quite nderstand the story but it was pretty messed up, good job anyway
