Sci-Fi Horror Short Film Headcleaner - DUST
video description
Btw, stunning sound AND sound that does other stuff is frequently used by police now days.
I experienced it first hand a few years ago during a protest. There was a cop car with a huge speaker array that was putting out off-putting sound that was utterly nerve wracking. It made you NOT want to be any where that you can hear it. and the sound traveled for BLOCKS. It physically hurt to be near it. (But, it was easy for me to overcome. but Im more in control of my reactions to stimuli then most people. )
Theres even now hand held devices that will apparently knock someone out for a couple seconds with sound. The point is to disrupt the persons motor functions, they fall to the ground and the cops or whomever jumps on them and restrains them. Cop car sirens also use a semi-stunning technology. Did ya notice how much louder and strident they got in the last few years It was a well researched and experimented thing. They picked something that stuns you a bit and puts you on edge and also disarms your potential to be threatening to them.
As for people using sound to market to people; uh yes. All the time. Its one of the major reasons why I cant listen to music any more. I realized just how much music is used to program us. its quite disgusting actually.
A prime example of music being used to program us is the pairing of upbeat instrumentation with sad/depressing lyrics. It creates this horrible connotative dissonance that makes us confused and vulnerable. Then guess what . Next thing you know, you get a commercial saying that buying X, Y or Z will solve all your problems.
Or, youre at a bar with that music and you end up drinking more then you know you should.
Btw, Id say the VAST majority of popular music is like this these days. Dance music is the WORSE culprit of it. (And I mean popular music of ALL genres.
Most people say they just ignore the lyrics. But, its only their conscious minds ignoring the lyrics. Their sub-conscious is paying attention to them and processing them as well as processing the upbeat music. It knows whats going on but is not able to stop it. Honestly, Id say that just consciously ignoring the lyrics and the cognitive dissonance makes us MORE likely to be subject to it because our sub-conscious is HIGHLY programmable. By consciously ignoring whats happening, I feel that our sub-conscious is getting the message that its totally ok and that it should just got along with it.

Little girls are super creepy for some reason and always used in successful horror films. As soon as the little girl popped in and started asking if he had 'heard' or 'listened' yet; and multiple times, along with the entire thing being about sound. it was over. I knew the ending. I really wish it would've been more subtle - so many movies get this wrong and it makes things hard to watch because the director or writer is so excited, they want you to know who dun it before the act was committed, or just after. We all know humanity is a virus and turns everything good bad. we all know that if something can be used to resurrect, then an inverse of that function should also exist, not to mention a range. Also, it doesn't hurt to have some knowledge of some of the older experiments along with modern day non-torture torture techniques.
I really wish the little girl responded more along the lines of yeah, it came today and I compiled it like you wanted but there was one thing I wasn't sure about so I kept both in there; they are flagged in the file. Review it and choose which one you want to keep in and delete the other.
Something to push the father to have to review it for it to be done instead of the just 'I trust you' response. And instead of giving it away by asking multiple times if he has listened to something that came in and she received and he hasn't had a chance to listen to. or to listen multiple times. It was too obvious. -- or, a response that there are 2 different files she compiled - so he could pick one later he likes better. Something to hint, but not give away. Or something which would appear normal in such a household.

Does anyone besides me see just a wee bit of horror in some of these offerings. like someone is trying to tell us something in a disguised way I find some of these things a little TOO real, like we're looking into something put here for entertainment, but it's really. N O T. It''s maybe, just m a y b e. real ESPECIALLY in view of what happened to some of our diplomats in China and Cuba several years back.

This is THE BEST short I've seen so far from DUST, the actors were excellent, the Scottish guy was brilliant at setting the scene, and I particularly enjoyed the inclusion of the SS/Thule, because as we all know, there's no baddie as evil as the ones who wore that black SS uniform. I think this short would make an excellent full length movie, same Scottish actor, definitely.

This was great from beginning to the last 3 minutes. Those last couple of minutes were complete trash, cheap, subpar, tacky, cookie cutter, lame af, rubbish that completely destroyed what was a entertaining, compelling story with better acting than most of the shit Hollywood regurgitates, remakes, reboots or claims is the Number 1 shit of the year. Trash.

Do I have a sudden hearing defect or is his Scottish accent so strong that I can barely understand more than a few of his words at times I was once in a part of Newfoundland years ago and could barely understand some of the people. It was supposed to be English but sounded almost like a strong Scottish accent. But this dialogue is worse.

the prelude. the ear that evil hears. poor start. Can evil hear an ear the prelude frames it so, but use of language from grade school says no. Poetic fail. good acting despite that lack of authorship. unknown author. yeah, I wouldnt claim it either. foreshadow, predictable punch line. 2. 5 stars. nice cinematography.

Man this one could be a full length movie! You all are missing out on big box millions of dollars in movie deals. Even if you were to make these 1 1/2 hrs long people would buy them. I would! Just awesome ideas! Keep it up!

Pure horror is well-made when there's enough plausibility that it can or is happening today. Just so well done.
Only caveat - I wish there were subtitles. The Scot's accent was quite thick and I had to rewind a bunch.

soon as i saw the girl was bleeding from the ears i knew what was up, and them trying to slip it past the viewer by pushing a pierced ears narrative locked it in for me that she had been brainwashed or something

Nicely done short. I do like it better when it feels like it had an ending. The only problem I had with this video is I wasn't able to catch what the young girl said right at the end of the short.

Well done! Great tension. Classic horror twist at the end. You don't need massive effects to create taut thrills. Good acting, directing, atmosphere do the trick hear (sorry, couldn't resist.

this film had me look at how sound can be used, I've found that the Aztec's used an instrument called the Death Whistle, I won't spoil it, just if you're interested go see for yourself.

The writers never have heard of Royal Rife, the inventor of the high power microscope. He cured cancer with sound and the Government shut him down. Look up the Royal Rife machine

Great work! Too bad it couldn't be a full length movie with a lot more development rather than a quick reveal and ending. Should definitely be developed into a full length movie.

Don't you be so naive as to think that experiments of this and similar sort are not happening in real life right now, as we're happily watching this movie.
