Rideshare

About This Movie

Rideshare is one of those short films that really nails the creeping tension. It plays with the familiar premise of a rideshare driver picking up a passenger, but quickly spirals into a nightmarish scenario. The atmosphere is thick with dread, helped by some effective practical effects that elevate the horror without overdoing it. Pacing is tight, which keeps you on edge, and the performances are surprisingly strong for a short. There's something about how it captures the vulnerability of being alone in a car with a stranger that feels relevant and unsettling. It definitely has a distinct style that sets it apart from typical horror shorts, making it worth a watch if you’re into modern horror vibes.
