Today\u2019s entry is <em>Nothing Happens<\/em>, written by Melissa Pleckham and directed by Ken Ramos, with music by Ramos and Dave Small. And the music is important here, because it\u2019s the main source of tension. <\/p>\n<p>This fake trailer features long steadycam shots, slowly creeping up on ominous images \u2013 a swing with no child, an axe, a closed door. And then\u2026 well. The title gives that away. <\/p>\n<p>I found this one at the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.salemhorror.com\/\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Salem Horror Fest<\/a>\u2019s \u201cWicked Shorts\u201d program this year. There were a lot of strong contenders on the slate, including one insane VR experience, and I\u2019m looking forward to what this first-year festival will do in its second year. I hope full versions of some of the shorts I saw will be available for next year\u2019s Daily Horror Film Fest. <\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" width=\"560\" height=\"315\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/PI4gNJe5B4U\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p><\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>There are only three days left for the Daily Horror Film Fest, so I thought I\u2019d give everyone a little break from the&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":2237,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"jetpack_post_was_ever_published":false,"_jetpack_newsletter_access":"","_jetpack_dont_email_post_to_subs":false,"_jetpack_newsletter_tier_id":0,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paywalled_content":false,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":"","jetpack_publicize_message":"","jetpack_publicize_feature_enabled":true,"jetpack_social_post_already_shared":true,"jetpack_social_options":{"image_generator_settings":{"template":"highway","enabled":false},"version":2}},"categories":[1],"tags":[641,1557,1556,1555,1558,1559],"class_list":["post-2236","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-uncategorized","tag-daily-horror-film-fest","tag-dave-small","tag-ken-ramos","tag-melissa-pleckham","tag-nothing-happens","tag-salem-horror-fest"],"jetpack_publicize_connections":[],"jetpack_featured_media_url":"https:\/\/nickzaino.com\/departmentoftangents\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/10\/DHFF-Nothing-Happens.jpg","jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"jetpack_shortlink":"https:\/\/wp.me\/p7lGwW-A4","jetpack-related-posts":[],"jetpack_likes_enabled":true,"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/nickzaino.com\/departmentoftangents\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2236","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/nickzaino.com\/departmentoftangents\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/nickzaino.com\/departmentoftangents\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/nickzaino.com\/departmentoftangents\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/nickzaino.com\/departmentoftangents\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=2236"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/nickzaino.com\/departmentoftangents\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2236\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":2238,"href":"https:\/\/nickzaino.com\/departmentoftangents\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2236\/revisions\/2238"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/nickzaino.com\/departmentoftangents\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/2237"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/nickzaino.com\/departmentoftangents\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=2236"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/nickzaino.com\/departmentoftangents\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=2236"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/nickzaino.com\/departmentoftangents\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=2236"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
