Featured review
For those fans of never-made-it-to Tv, made-for-TV ghost documentaries
This short film is directed by Keith Tyler Hopkins, a relatively innocuous director with only short films in his repertoire.
Playing out like an episode of a TV show, our host, the exceptionally eccentric Gravedigger Dave, played by Matt Rasmussen (Gravedigger Dave's Anthology Festival), treats us to a slew of short ghost documentaries that may or may not be real.
Poor Dave must have died on the pot, because his permanently contorted face bears the message, "don't bother me, I'm trying to push one out."
This short film asks, "What is fact? What is fiction?" And I found myself wondering if it was asking about the documentaries themselves, or the stories within. On that note, with a 90's stylization, and incredibly accurate and outstanding acting, the documentaries are easily convincing. I remember seeing very similar shows of the same caliber when I was growing up, even down to the dramatized, digitally altered reenactments and droning, spellbinding soundscapes. So, for a while, I honestly couldn't tell if these were real documentaries that just never aired, or if these were actually made in-house. If they were made in-house, well done!
Of course, speckled about are obvious in-house works that feature some pretty remarkable ideas. And it's at these points that you realize the remarkable capability and talent of Keith Hopkins to recreate the ghost documentaries of the olden days. They're SO convincing! Really takes me back.
The most glaring issue of this entire movie is the muffled sound. Grave Digger Dave, in particular, has a very muffled sound quality that almost makes it impossible to understand what he's saying at times. Luckily, this issue is only contained to his brief segments. Just as well, there's a story or two that just kinda vanish into thin air before reaching a conclusion.
Overall, it's enjoyable to watch, actually, especially if you enjoy ghost documentaries from the 90's.
