Here we have another horror short for you guys to chow down on entitled The Devil’s Grave which marks Steven Aguilera’s directorial debut and its an interesting concept.
We follow Helen (Amanda Kari McHugh) and her lover (Dean Ghaffari) as they unwittingly murder Helen’s husband. In doing so they frantically try to find a spot to bury him only to find a corpse already laying beneath the earth.
Soon the story deepens and we guided into a chilling mystery as we witness an ancient curse come to life. While there isn’t much in terms of gore, almost all of the action is featured off-screen and we are left to our imagination.
Thankfully the acting is up to par and this drives the focus of the short which was an enjoyable 9-minute ride. You can check this one out in its entirety below and let us know what you make of it.
Synopsis: “A woman and her lover frantically bury the body of her husband in the backyard, only to discover a corpse already buried there. Shoveling further, the mystery deepens as more chilling remains are uncovered until the ghastly source of this ancient evil is finally unearthed.”

As horror shorts go, this was actually a fairly gripping tale of lust and revenge and I believe that when this one is finally released on its festival run it will be a top draw. Erik L. Wilson has created a pretty stellar supernatural short with some top FX work on display.
The short comes in at around the 15 minute mark and during that time we are quickly catapulted straight into the action, which is well shot and actually believable. Janice (Aimee Bello) is a victim of domestic abuse and soon she looks for solace in someone else, but first she needs to take care of some unfinished business.
The short plays out with an interesting story and one which kept me engaged throughout. One downside is the small CGI in play, it doesn’t look good when compared to the practical effects on display. My word of advice is, if it doesn’t look right, don’t use it.
In any event, this was a breath of fresh air in the sudden spate of horror remakes and the likes, Wilson managed to create an eerie setting and the cast managed to provide some top not acting to support the story. I was on the edge of my seat nearing the end waiting to see the outcome and it didn’t disappoint, well except I would have liked for a more eerie and crazier old woman. But I like freaky old people.
Here we have your first look as we have scored the poster and the first trailer for the short. House Call is said to be hitting the festival circuit soon, so if you get the chance, hunt this one down.
The short stars Aimee Bello, Michael Jordan, Janet Gawrys and Brad Egger.
Synopsis: “Janice does the unthinkable in order to start a new life with her new boyfriend. However, strange things begin to happen on the night of their one year anniversary.”
