Death, Love, and Road Trips – Atypical Shorts
- Sun, Mar 22
Run Time: 92 min.
Psst… Get in, losers! We are going for a ride. You have been cooped up all winter and you need to get out: Out of your mind, out of your body, and then back again.
You need to meet the menace that lurks on a quiet British roadside. Experience the hazards of date night with a cannibal roommate. Take a transcendental journey of pure horror. Cruise with a clairvoyant coroner and his recently departed passenger. Visit a village that doesn’t answer their doors after dark. Accompany a gang of youths as they fact-check their family’s intersection with the cosmic. And then off to Taiwan to conclude your journey in the place that made the journey possible, the movie theatre. – George Luke
