Castellanos sets a creepy mood that becomes even more potent when accompanied by the toe-tapping disco classics that make this haunted dance floor the place to be.

Rated: 4/5

Ready Steady Cut

Like most short films, Disco Inferno features unconvincing performances and laughable jump-scares. It is not scary in the slightest, but the camera work, the music, and the flashy lights do make it worthwhile.

Rated: 2.5/5

There’s a fine line between being suggestive and sketchy, and this film lands in the latter camp.

"Disco Inferno" is an exemplary short film that boasts a runtime of nearly 20 minutes. The director, Matthew Castellanos, demonstrated remarkable aptitude in his craft. Visually captivating, the film authentically captures the essence of the era it portrays. Through the use of striking compositions and deliberate camera movements, the narrative of love and loss is elevated to new heights.

Rated 5 out of 5 stars

I loved this movie! The atmosphere was heavy and the camera work knew exactly where it wanted to be. I wish the movie would have been longer to expand on the story. Great Work!

Short and Sweet ~ Vibrant, Entertaining, Thrilling, and Fun. There appears to be hidden, deeper meaning behind some of the themes/messages in this story that, combined with the creative elements, makes this a sensory stimulating, thought-provoking, and dynamic hit as a short film!

Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars

What's lacking in overall length of the film, is made up for imagery. Enjoyable if feeling incomplete due to the short run time.
