This short film does not disappoint. From the cast to the story line and everything in between you are hooked from the very beginning. It leaves you on the edge of your seat and pulls at your heart strings with the reality that this could happen as people do whatever it takes for their family. I can't wait to see what happens next!

This was such a great film to watch. From the beginning, the storyline sucks you in and keeps you watching. I battled with my feelings about the main character throughout the film, but being a parent myself, I understand there are some tough choices you can be faced with when it comes to your kids and you will do almost anything for them. The ending really threw me though a loop and I'm really dying to know what comes next! Overall, the storyline, character development, and surprise ending will leave you with the same feelings! Must watch!!
I watched this movie a couple of times, to get a broader perspective of it and I have to say that it is a breath of fresh air in the genre. The movie puts you in the position of the protagonist and makes you think, what would you do in his place. I just love when movies do that.
I found this gem of a short film on Amazon the other day and decided to give it a try.... Boy, was I in for a treat! First, I don't watch short films often and if I keep watching something until the end it really needs to touch me in some way. With The Dark Web, I wanted to really keep re-watching it because it gave me this sort of an inspiring adrenalin - what's happening , what's coming next, why, how's this going to end, what's after it ends? I felt like making life changing decisions together with the characters, and being powering through hardships with them as well. This movie made me tear up, being intrigued, scared, happy - all at the same time.... Long story short - I want the second part!!
From the production, to the cast, and the story line, everything was well done and thought out. I really enjoyed this film and while I don't want to give any spoilers, the ending got me hooked and wanting to see more!!!

I absolutely loved The Dark Web not only because I enjoy thrillers and suspenseful films in general but also because it brought to light a dark side of real and possible events that could happen in our time. Digitalisation, Bitcoins, Dark Web. It kept me wanting for more/or similar film s. Great acting and filmmaking!
Great story with incredible ending! This short film had me hooked! The acting in this film was also of a very high standard.. Ervin Musabelliu and Danielle Esplin star as the parents going above and beyond to save their child's life and put on a superb performance. I would highly recommend this to anyone that loves a great drama. Can't wait to see more of their work! Keep them coming please!
I don't really watch short films but this film was quite intriguing. It managed to keep me entertained from beginning till the end. And the end ...that was the best part. I recommended if you're looking for a suspenseful thriller. I really liked the Bitcoin element too. Well done 👏
Unbelievable movie find. The actors were intense and were very well played. This movie has action, drama, intensity and more. Will definitely share with friends and family.

Very good short film with an interesting story and an unpredictable ending. Impressive acting by Ervin Musabelliu, which increases the suspense of the film. I highly recommand it to everyone since it gives an important massage to humanity.
Wow. Just wow. After watching the ending, I can legitimately say I'm blown away with the storyline that took a completely different turn than I thought it would. For a short film, to see that kind of character development, passion, and intensity is very rare. I liken it the Coen Brothers short - Blood Simple. High praise; I know.
Masterful job by the lead actor of capturing the true emotions of fatherhood and dealing with strife no father should deal with. Unbelievable performance and 10/10 on the acting by Ervin Musabelliu.
Highly recommend this to anyone wanting to watch true cinematic bliss!

This is the work of people who undeniably love their craft! An outstanding short film that captivates your attention from the first few shots and retains the intensity throughout the whole movie. With a very original screenplay that posits tough ethical dilemmas that will surely trouble you long after you finish watching, dilemmas and emotions that are masterfully imparted from the actors to the viewers.

The dark web captured my attention from the beginning and didn't let up even after it was over. You find yourself arguing, and then sympathizing, with the main character so it definitely captures your attention and is worth the watch.
Intense storyline! As a parent, I know I would do whatever it takes to help my kids. This movie is sad, dramatic, intense, and relatable. So suspenseful towards the end and it had me wanting more! Did not see that one coming at all... kinda stressed me out haha!! Great plot, good acting, overall a good short film.

For a short film, this storyline really packs some heat! A lot of suspense shorts that I've seen are either dry or predictable, but there is a lot of depth to this story with pleanty of twists/turns that kept me invested throughout. I'd recommend this to anyone who loves suspense/thrillers. Also that ending tho....

This film captures the gravity that humans can face when something dire happens to a loved one. Ervin Musabelliu has an intensity to him that is rarely seen. There is something almost De Niroesque about him. I do wish the film was longer! I think it could easily be a feature.

It has an unexpected end, with the sunspence and the curiosity to know what follows, I found it compelling and able to keep my curiosity and interest alive, the tension is constantly high.

We loved this movie and were moved by the depth and incredible interpretation of the father who faces the love for his son and commitment to his life and ethical dilemma on the other hand. Keep up the great work and we look forward to the next production.

An amazing movie that took my breath away. It has been quite a while that i have not seen such a powerful, sensitive, suspicious til the end movie. Being a father myself, It made me more attached to this movie. Exactly, what a father can do to save his son? And that is the movie that tells you everything with the brilliant acting of Ervin Musabelliu and the rest of the cast. Hollywood needs these types of movies to make the society more sensitive. Two thumbs up and i definitely recommended. NETFLIX GET THIS MOVIE!!!
