Matt Robb’s short horror, Noman brings the summoning/séance sub-genre to the 21st century, allowing audiences to witness the terror through the medium of TikTok and live stream.

A massive strength to be commended for this feature is the fact that, unless you were told you were watching a student short, you’d be none the wiser. Not only do the actors do a good job of carrying the script but thanks to the amazing camerawork, grain – and overall cinematography – it allows the movie to fit in seamlessly amongst the bigger names in horror.
