Description
A couple’s weather-ruined romantic getaway turns into a fight for survival against malevolent twin spirits looking to capture unsuspecting souls.
ECHO TWINS was a short film designed to answer the question of “how do we shoot a horror short film in the sunlight?”. Plans were made, tests were shot and locations were booked, though when we showed up to the location in the mountains of California we were met with a torrential wind storm. Story lines were adjusted on the spot and the team pressed on to create a dimension bending, action-dance inspired short over the course of 2 weekends. Thank you for watching and we appreciate your support! Lets continue to keep art alive 🧟♀️🧟
