The Laundromat Off Malibu - Short Film

Oh man, this would've been great if it were longer. Everything happened so fast. I wanted to stew in the mystery. Explore Jason's emotions and slowly building panic or even see more hesitation to his final decision. What's waiting for him outside the door? Is it worse than this? We don't need to know, but it didn't take him long to make the decision. With more funding and run time, this could be one HELL of a thing.

I love the way this reflects purgatory, a time of reflection whether you want to look back or not

Wow. This is Major Movie Quality. Acting =A Cinematography =A Story = A: Cheers for More!

This was really like a Twilight Zone episode. Perfect amount of ambiguity and mystery to keep us wondering what awaited Jason outside the laundromat and how the next guy would be judged.

This is why, I wait in my car while at the laundromat 😂

Who’s here from the reel? 🙌

got this recommended on a insta reel, love the concept a lot!

Fiona! This is amazing! Thank you for sharing this beautiful piece of art with us. Someone please give this incredible artist a feature length film!

This was all around incredibly original and creepy. The entire concept was artistically imagined and so beautifully executed by the actors. Well done 👏🏽👏🏽

Captivating. This fifteen minute film created an eternity...

I could've sat through another 15 minutes of this and would've still been happy. Well done on this film!

I would love to see this expanded on in a feature length film. Have multiple peoples stories with clues as to what they did hidden throughout the laundromat.

absolutely fantastic! used such a small space to make a grand impression!

Good job Fiona, I don't think I've seen many amateur films with that level of cinematography

Why waste two hours on a movie, when such a piece as this tells an allegory in fifteen minutes? She's a doll - I would be tempted to spend eternity with her.

I truly enjoyed this film. The sense of eerie and horror mixed in was truly great. The cast gave a solid performance, the directing is really well done, and the set looks great. You and the rest of the crew delivered a great mindbending film. Also, I don't know why but it felt like Sarah was sort of like the ferryman from Greek mythology. She's the 1st person that is met, welcomes the deceased, "guides" them, and her "service" involves a coin or in this case: a quarter. That's just my thoughts though.

I cant condense all that i wanna talk about. So here's just this In "No Exit" the phrase "Hell is other people" is coined to describe how we are irrevocably entwined and bound in the perception others hold on ourselves, specifically the guilt and shame associated when we do socially bad actions and have the feeling that someone is watching. We see this in how angry and distressed Jayson becomes upon feeling judged by Sarah. Additionally, even though he says that he never slept with the girl he still feels the perception and judgement of others looking in on his and her deaths and his general role he plays in her death. If i keep trying to explain all my analysis of the short ima blow a gasket and type up like 100 paragraphs

Wow, the camera shots depicting the emotion and the tension, the lighting and the composition, this short film literally made me go ….. wow, y’all did an amazing job

That is awesome Fiona, plus Austin Amelio is a great actor along with Gigi. This reminds me of The Twilight Zone with all its other worldly type of feel! very nice!

very professionally done, the music , the cuts, camera angles. bravo
