INTERVIEW ON “RISE FROM THE DEAD” PODCAST
“Honeymoon at Cold Hollow played at Horrorhound Film Festival and was a HIT! Ash was such a fan that she just had to reach out to Nat and invite him to the show.”
“The best short films are often showcases of what actors and filmmakers can do, and could do on a larger scale. At just under 15 minutes, Honeymoon at Cold Hollow packs a ton of atmosphere and dread that instantly feels like forgotten gem of a horror movie from the early-to-mid 70s. It’s a credit to everyone who worked on this project that made it feel so genuine, and a great calling card for what they all do next. “ (Josh Davis)
“His award-winning horror short Honeymoon at Cold Hollow could not nail the aesthetic more precisely if it had been filmed in ’74 and held in a vault until this year (and) one of the most gorgeous short films you’ll see.” (Hope Madden)
“A well-crafted throwback to a time when film had grain and there were no smartphones to save us if we were trapped in a house by a layer of snow so thick that we’d have to dig a huge tunnel to get away. Nat Rovit adds some magical realism to his horror in an exploration that’s as entertaining as it is frightening regarding the potential for a life together to end in a raucous descent into madness.” (Ana Cabral Martins)
“Entertaining, claustrophobic, and chilling. We can only hope that Nat Rovit maintains this sort of look and feel in their next projects.” (Victoria Potenza)
“Certainly wins the "most throwback" award - - - because daaayumn, you'd swear this movie was from the 70’s. They took great care of recreating that throwback look and they nailed it!” (James Seagraves)
