Aaron1375 I read another person's review on this film and he mentioned that it had a relatively low budget, but I do not think it shows. It looks like a film that could be showed at the theater. To bad they do not make full length horror movies like this as this is another case of a short film I would like to see developed more. The actors did a good job and so to did the writer or writers and the whole film crew. There was another short film I saw called "There Are Monsters" that was like this in that it made me really want to see more, and they both were kind of creepy. Actually very creepy. It starts off rather like some sort of light comedy or something as a person is making his breakfast. They get done and it is revealed that it is a man. The music is still light as he switches on the television and proceeds to watch the news. Well one of his neighbors proceeds to knock on the door and ask a favor. He wishes his neighbor to come over to his house and look at something that is off. The guy is perturbed, but agrees to it and as he walks over to his neighbors house the music takes on a darker tone though still light in a way as well, kind of a subtle change that I rather liked. Well from then on the film gets really creepy and the last scene is just great. All in all a nice short film where its main fault is that I want to see more!

Alan Rowe Kelly They're living right next door! Across the street! Now they're in your home! I saw this dark little beauty this past September at the 2008 Dark Carnival Film Festival in Bloomington, Ill. It scared the living daylights out of me! No blood. No gore. Just good old fashioned 'creeps' by taking the 'average' everyday suburban neighborhood and turning it into a children's game-gone-nightmare. And the old man's wife at the top of the stairs?? Yikes! Chilling! Now I know why I don't deal with my own neighbors! Excellent short film from a very clever director. I can't wait to see what he creates next! This little horror flick is must see- look for it!

lcruell I saw "Peekers" at this year's Shriekfest out in LA where I was also a triple finalist in the screenplay categories, and I have to say it was one of my favorite shorts of the whole festival. It was short, simple, with no expensive special effects or fancy locations and yet it creeped the living daylights out of me. Something about that shot of "the Peekers" with the oddness of splitting the face in half, the weird feel, the inexplicableness of it, and that first actress I mean it just nailed it casting-wise with her. It was awesome. It reminded me a lot of the feel you get after reading a really good Stephen King short story.

wirrrn Just saw this excellent short horror film PEEKERS as part of the NIGHT OF HORROR at the 2008 Revelation film festival in Perth, West Australia.Of the eight film shown, this one was one of the three ( along with others KIRKSDALE and THE ANCIENT RITE OF COREY MCGILLIS) that managed to terrify me- and I see a *lot* of Horror films. Bonus points to Mr. Steensland was for making PEEKERS such an awesome, unsettling, truly creepy film a] in such a short running time and b] without shedding one drop of blood! I found myself genuinely frightened by the concept, especially by the line "She wasn't threatening, but I felt threatened" and the shot of the newsreader 'peeking', suggesting it's happening everywhere.give it a peek!
