Watching it is like watching the spectacle of a class clown at their best: you laugh at their jokes, instigate their defiance, and "ooooh" when they get in trouble.

"The United Monster Talent Agency" is an 8-minute short film written and directed by Greg Nicotero, a man who won several Emmy Awards for his outstanding makeup work on shows such as "The Walking Dead". Here he gives us his take on the horror film industry and includes many interesting and fun references. It is worth a watch especially for fans of very early horror films as this era is mostly what these 8 minutes are about. The werewolf transformation at the end was fun and you will even see a couple familiar faces in here such as Frank Darabont or Eli Roth. I thought it was a decent watch, but I also must say that it's good that it only ran for 8 minutes because with a runtime of 10 minutes or more, it may have quickly gotten unfunny and repetitive. Good job, all in all, thumbs up.

You're making horror movie ? You need someone as a monster ? Then look no further than the united monster talent company which will cater to your every need in the field of horror . Anything you ask for they can get because all their monsters are real An amusing satirical short film done in the manner of a corporate video shot in black and white .It's rather one note and doesn't really go beyond the simple premise of real monsters being kept captive in Hollywood awaiting their next star turn but this isn't a really a criticism and is very affectionate tribute to horror films of yesterday when the make up people and special effect designers had to work for their corn and films weren't reliant on CGI . . It also has something of a casting coup in featuring Eli Roth and Frank Darabont in walk on roles . Not a brilliant short film but it has no pretensions of being one and does contain a lot of nostalgic appeal to anyone who has enjoyed horror movies
