Skinamarink's latest experimental horror film is making a lot of buzz on the internet, with some referring to it as the "scariest film ever made" and others admitting that it made them terrified for days and reignited their fears of the dark. The film, directed by Kyle Edward Ball, follows two children, four-year-old Kevin and six-year-old Kaylee, who awakened in the middle of the night to find that their parents are dead and that the windows and doors in their house have vanished. Over the course of the one-hour-40-minute horror movie, strange and scary things begin to happen in the house: furniture disappears and reappears, toys move on their own, and children begin to cry, leading to the children and the audience's inability to determine what's real and what isn't. The film, according to an inexperienced commentator, it's a 'waking nightmare,' meaning that it creates a 'atmosphere of dread,' while Inverse praised it as the'scariest movie of all time.' The film, which has already grossed over $1.5 million at the box office, was shot in Ball's childhood home and cost just $15,000 to produce.
