If you thought your overpriced yet filthy flatshare was bad, this one might actually take the cake. Chaos and grime are at the heart of this fast-paced, horrifying, hilarious and imaginative film from Will Wightman. |

Benny is turning 2 and he’s apparently invited the entire town, leaving his mother rather confused. This deeply unsettling short is told through great performances, and we’re pretty confident Benny would be besties with Damien from The Omen. |
