Such a good movie. Didn't expect much on this cat-and-mouse/thriller "Hush".

A movie that takes many inspirations in the likes of "Duel", "The Hitcher", and especially that AWESOME movie of Paul Walker and Steve Zhan's in "Joy Ride".

As usual in a horror/thriller films kind of pick up quickly, but fall flat in their story and characters. Although, in "Hush" you get a good story, great thrills, and enough character development within a short film. The story revolves around a couple struggling with their life, especially a job that doesn't quite do much for their financial needs. It's like a every other night for them, until in a unexpected turn the night suddenly shifts when they encounter a man who is out to make their life a living hell. Not knowing why he's doing this, only that he is taking a fond of the chase and their fear.

Didn't want to spoil it. I just gave the synopsis again, but I just wanted to let y'all know that you should definitely check this thriller out. I gave the film an 7/10 because like it did have moments where it was gut-wrenching, but they are certain scenes that make you cringe at the dumb acts that the characters try to get out of the situation. The movie did enough for a short film. This isn't much of a new thriller you see here, which much of it takes inspiration in other thrillers, but it is a definitely fun ride for a night.
