“The Girl In The Street”
A short Film
Horror isn’t hiding in the shadows — it’s standing in broad daylight, screaming for help. When Malachi moves to a small town chasing a fresh start, he’s forced to answer a life-changing question: What does it cost to be a good person? Directed by Chris & Miles, with cinematography by Lana Mattice, The Girl in the Street tears into the dark underbelly of suburban "goodness" — exposing the cult-like loyalty and moral decay simmering under small-town smiles.
With a voice cameo from horror royalty Heather Langenkamp (A Nightmare on Elm Street, The Midnight Club), polished by top-tier teams from Fotokem (Sinners, Strange Darling) and Esho Sound (Anora, Strange Darling), and scored by Pablo Fuu (When Evil Lurks), this film is built to rattle audiences and start conversations.
This is a horror film that dares to ask if it's right to be “good."
The Girl in the Street is set to hit film festivals in 2026, but it’s already creating buzz in publications like Fangoria. Follow the film on socials for the latest developments with the film.
What People Are Saying.
“The Girl in the Street is a story about morality—specifically, the thin and often painful line between being a “good person” and doing what’s simply convenient. At its heart, this film confronts the haunting consequences of selfishness and complicity.”
— Fangoria“Very freaky, it is like Midsommar, really different loved the atmosphere as the others walk towards him, and the creepy factor from them made my blood run cold. Good short!”
— Jenifer Higgins“In The Girl in the Street, filmmakers Chris & Miles masterfully overlay their horror on top of this morality tale. For a short film, it feels very cinematic. It’s clear from the opening conversation between Malachi and Sasha that there is something very wrong, and the terror only escalates from there. The horror is meticulously crafted to keep you off-balance until the credits roll. The Girl in the Street would make the perfect addition to any film festival’s midnight horror block.”
