"I know how this ends"

This short film was created for CATV and the Hopkins Center for the Arts at Dartmouth's 2015 Halloween-o-thon Film Festival, where it won Best Screenplay and Best Artistic Design. The film was required to be completely original, under five minutes in length, and include the line "I know how this ends." The film takes place, largely, in the mind of the main character, who is in a coma. In his coma-induced dream, he can hear what is actually going on around him in the hospital, but he is unconscious, and blends reality with the serial playing on the radio.

A Study in Terror

When Watson reads from the newspaper there have been two similar murders near Whitechapel in a few days, Sherlock Holmes' sharp deductive is immediately stimulated to start its merciless method of elimination after observation of every apparently meaningless detail. He guesses right the victims must be street whores, and doesn't need long to work his way trough a pawn shop, an aristocratic family's stately home, a hospital and of course the potential suspects and (even unknowing) witnesses who are the cast of the gradually unraveled story of the murderer and his motive.
