The Whistle is a horror short about a man who was returning home from work, and heard a whistle in the middle of the dark street.
Exactly as it happens with, it seems, most of such tiny horrors these days, this one terribly lacks context to be really scary. However, it does have suspense, which makes it stand out if only a little bit. On the side of technical quality, the picture is sometimes is too dark, but otherwise it’s quite alright, – especially the sound (which is natural, as a lot in the story relies on it). All in all, it’s decent one-timer, but nothing too special.
