Title: Hitched Along
Storyline: On the anniversary of a local tragedy, a storm forces a stranded man to accept shelter from a soft-spoken woman in a decaying countryside villa.
What begins as a kind gesture quickly unravels into a night of psychological tension and eerie revelations. Both characters carry secrets—one may be dangerous, the other deeply damaged—but neither is entirely what they seem.
Hitched Along is a 10-minute horror short created by Massey University students, offering a tightly written two-hander that explores themes of trust, trauma, and hidden darkness.
With strong dialogue and emotionally driven scenes, this project is ideal for actors looking to showcase intensity and nuance
