This film is a compilation of 4 horror shorts (as opposed to an anthology).
The first film- by Paul Holbrook and Sam Dawe- tells the story of a young single mother who finds herself struggling to raise a boy with an inexplicably insatiable appetite.
As he grows, his need to satiate this hunger takes on more and more extremes.
Ultimately leading to the conclusion of the film.
The second installation of the program is a French film titled Myosotis, by Felix Dobaire.
Which, in my opinion, is the best one of the bunch.
It tells the tale of a beekeeper who finds his wife dead (having been killed by the bees).
Knowing he'd be held responsible, he buries her body under the vegetable garden, instead of reporting the crime.
Only for it to manifest a bizarre Svankmajerian mutation.
That ultimately leads to his downfall.
The third film- by Luke Konopasky- is about a young woman who lives alone.
One day, her water stops working.
So she calls for help.
Only to become the target of multiple mysterious men.
Which forces her to take matters into her own hands.
The young protaganess- played by writer Rita Konopasky- does a particularly excellent job on the acting front here.
With the final film revolving around a rural farm couple, who find themselves being targeted by a religious conman, that is out to get money from them.
Until they bring new meaning to the term "divine justice".
All in all...it's a solid little compilation, of simple shorts, from a number of up and coming directors.
With Felix Dobaire's contribution particularly standing out.
So keep an eye out for what he- and young actress Rita Konopasky-, have to offer on the horizon.
There might not be anything super groundbreaking here.
But it's definitely worth a watch.
3 out of 10 (on average, with Myosotis standing clearly above the rest).
