The Hiding is an interesting entry from the 2013 Four4 Very Short Horror Film Competition. It’s a unique blend of comedy and horror, though it leans more towards the former with a light-hearted take on a familiar theme. The pacing is brisk, typical for shorts, which keeps you engaged throughout its runtime. The practical effects, while modest, add a certain charm that feels very DIY—you can tell they had a fun time creating the scares. Performances are a bit hit-or-miss, but there’s a certain earnestness that comes through. It stands out for its playful tone and willingness to poke fun at genre conventions. Not groundbreaking, but definitely has its quirks that make it noteworthy in a collector’s view.
