It Kills is a compact horror film that dives into the dire consequences of smoking. The pacing is tight, aligning with its short runtime, which adds to the urgency of its message. The atmosphere is grim, effectively utilizing shadows and practical effects that pack a punch without over-reliance on digital enhancements. There’s a rawness to the performances that captures the desperation and darkness surrounding addiction. It’s not your average horror flick; it leans heavily into moral commentary, which can feel a bit heavy-handed at times, but it sets it apart in the short horror landscape. The film's participation in the Four4 Very Short Horror Film Competition adds a layer of credibility, showcasing emerging talent in the genre.
