Completing Siwang has to be the most tedious and painstaking process we had to go through as a team. But nevertheless, it was one of the most fun filled shoot we have ever done. See the team behind it in action.

"I think the opening credits went too long for a short, the sound was terrible (I assume you were recording straight from the camera) and the score felt very out of place. But hey, first film! Well done! Most people don't even get that far! Keep frequenting these boards and you'll be sure to pick up a thing or two."

"I am not a professional film reviewer but if you may want to know my views on this short film, “Bangungot”, to start of let me summarize the story. As I understand, it is short horror film wherein the main character of the story woke up in the middle of the night leading the audience to believe that she had a nightmare, then decided to have a glass of water in the kitchen to ease and calm herself down, but while doing so, she saw a man lingering behind her back. Believing the man to be a perpetrator to harm her, she decided to take matters into her hands by getting a knife for self defense, yet in the end turned out to be the main character was the perpetrator herself and the man instead was the victim.
In the beginning, I believe the director has given justice to what was expected of the film. Audience expected a horror film from the title itself and so from the start it created a creepy, chilling or frightening mood like something or someone will come out of nowhere that will give the audience a big scare. The musical scoring on this note added to that eerie mood. Shots were great as well, nothing fancy but appropriate. However, there were just about 2 or 3 things that bothered me on the film. If I may say so, I wasn’t too keen on the mirror at the kitchen sink. Maybe it came as a reality check for me since I don’t think people normally hang mirrors on kitchen sinks? I know that the director needs to let the audience know that there is a man lingering behind the woman but maybe it would have been better if the mirror was in the receiving area or bathroom when that scene happened, although that could have been a cliché’ but other than the kitchen sink maybe that part could have shown a shadow moving behind? Secondly, I think other music would best suit the part when the woman gets a knife from the kitchen counter, because the choice of music for that scene kind of ruined the terrifying mood. Lastly, I guess, the film can do without the end part, from the time wherein the director shouted “Cut!”
Overall, I’ll give the film 3.5 out of 5 stars"
