In Austin Kase’s horror short, Hide Your Crazy, and we see that relationships are challenging to navigate when you have secrets to hide.
Dan (Will Toussaint) is trying to salvage what little of his relationship is left with Iris (Amy-Helene Carlson) with a loving gesture of a birthday cake. Iris has been trying to push Dan away for some time now, and Dan needs to make his final plea that the two of them could work as a pair.
What Dan doesn’t know is that Iris has a mysterious supernatural secret and Dan’s insistence on knowing that secret could mean not only the end of their relationship but also the end of Dan as well.

“…Dan’s insistence on knowing that secret could mean not only the end of their relationship but also the end of Dan…”
What Hide Your Crazy does so well is blend the genres of horror and romance in a way that shows how, at the start of a relationship, we all hide the worst parts of ourselves, hoping that the best of us will overshadow the worst. Iris has a secret that has prevented her from having a genuine relationship with a man.
This concept lends itself to some great low-budget monster makeup with copious amounts of blood and grotesque makeup that bridges the ideas of love and horror of romance. Hide Your Crazy is a beautiful, bloody package perfect for your midnight horror programs.
