What happens when we face our shadow?
In a world where everything is meant to be one big distraction, one man is forced to sit in a room, alone, with only his thoughts; or so it seems. “The Man in the Padded Room” is unlike any other horror movie as it explores the thing that haunts us all; OURSELVES.
Delve Into Darkness
The only way into the light is to go through the darkness. This is a story of facing the very thing that scares us all; OURSELVES. Can we handle isolation? Or will it be too much? What happens when we’re faced with our shadow-self?
Reality
What IS reality actually? Is it a matter of perception or do we have control over it? TMITPR explores this concept.
Psychosis
What happens when the brain fights itself and who’s really “sane” in a chaotic society?
Shadow
Looking in the mirror is one thing, but hallucinations are another altogether and can lead to breakdowns and breakthroughs.
INT. PADDED CELL - TIME UNKNOWN
A man wakes up in a padded cell, groggy and confused. He looks around, trying to see through the blades of darkness. "Where am I?" he thinks. This is not home and he quickly realizes that he's no longer in control of his life. He screams for help. No one hears him. The silence is deafening. He's alone. Disconnected from society. He screams again. Nothing. Just silence. After a while, he begins to hear his own heartbeat. It becomes too much. He's lost.
