NightStreams Shorts: JEFF GOT STABBED, CABAL, MORBUS, GACHA GACHA, JONAGOLD and DARLING PET MONKEY

 


JEFF GOT STABBED

Jeff staggers into a dinner party carrying cake and sporting a stab wound. hat exactly happened and how will the dinner guests handle it? Much too knowing film tries to walk the lin between horror and comedy and doesn't really work as either


CABAL

A business man is forced to fight in a death match...and there is a twist here that I'm not sure works....


MORBUS

A couple stumble upon a "car accident"...and a woman stumbling through the woods. Feeling like the start of something bigger this is a film that is crying out to be a feature..


DARLING PET MONKEY

The story of kids who buy a monkey through the mail behind their mothers back...and what happens. This is a wickedly funny "true" story...is just evil ...and really really funny....wrong but funny.


GACHA GACHA

Story of obsession concerning toys found in coin machines and the need to have the latest at all costs. This is a weird little film that is quietly disturbing , while to "toy" is just a plain nightmarish.


JONAGOLD

A man confronts his muse. An interesting idea is stretched a bit farther than it needs to be. I was all in for about half the running time (this film runs 25 minutes)  and then it went on past the perfect point.
