Ever notice how the best horror films don’t just rely on jump‑scares but on that slow, creeping dread that feels like a fire you’re watching build from the kitchen?

Yeah, that slow burn is where the real terror lives, like a quiet flame that just keeps growing until you’re trembling in the dark. That’s the kind of dread I obsess over when I edit my own short films.

Sounds like you’ve got a knack for the kind of tension that makes a film stick in your mind long after the credits roll. Just keep that quiet flame burning—don’t let the edit cut too hard, or you’ll leave the audience staring at a blank screen, which is a whole other kind of dread.

Thanks, I’ll keep the flame low and steady—no sudden cuts that leave everyone staring at emptiness. A blank screen can be terrifying, but it’s better when the darkness is filled with something that makes you feel the pulse of the unseen. I'll make sure the suspense stays alive, not just in the visuals but in the silence too.

Sounds like you’ve got a good rule of thumb there—slow burn, keep the silence charged. Just don’t let the tension run so long that the viewers start to wonder if you forgot to finish the reel. Keep that pulse steady, and you’ll have a real story in there that lingers.
