The Earth Rejects HimThe Earth Rejects Him
Directed by Jared Skolnick
Written by Jared Skolnick
Starring Ellis Gage, Colin Allen and Jacob Moon
Dead Henchmen Productions
Released 2011

The Earth Rejects Him is a chilling short film written and directed by Jared Skolnick about a young boy who discovers a corpse while biking in the woods, “then faces unexpected and macabre consequences when he tries to bury it.” Influenced by the films of Werner Herzog, Terrence Malick, and Guillermo del Toro and the short stories of H.P.

After he and his two friends swear to the police they haven’t touched a thing, the boys quietly walk their bikes home. The boy shows the others the tooth he’s taken and at their urging, buries it in a field.
