Short Horror Film Friday: Too Many Cooks

Welcome to this Week’s Installment of Short Horror Film Friday. This Week We will be Featuring the Dark Comedy Surreal Horror Short Film Too Many Cooks!

Too Many Cooks Originally Aired as a Special during  Adult Swim’s Infomercials Block on October 28, 2014, at 4:00am ET. It was Created, Written, and Directed by Casper Kelly, and Produced by Williams Street. After its Original Airing, Too Many Cooks went on to become a Viral Video Online, and was Shown Repeatedly Each Night at Midnight ET during the Week of November 11, 2014

                   

Premis: 

The Video begins as a Parody of Opening Credits Sequences of the 1970’s, 1980’s and 1990’s American Sitcom Comedies, then Television Crime Dramas, Prime Time Soap Operas, Saturday Morning Cartoons, Super Hero Live Action Series, Slasher Films, and Science Fiction, with each of them Gradually Bleeding into the Next. Particular Focus is put on a Slasher Film Villain, Who is Hidden in the Background of Several Early Shots but eventually Starts Killing the Other Characters with a Menacing Machete. The Opening Credits Sequence Ends after about 10 Minutes and Transitions into the “Episode”, with all the Characters from the Opening Standing in the One House; the Short Ends approximately 10 Seconds Later, Cutting to the Closing Credits before a Full Line of Dialogue can be Spoken.

Enjoy.

Sci Fi Horror Stop Motion Web Series :Operator Ep. 2

We are Thrilled to Present OPERATOR Episode 2 By The Insanely Talented Animator Sam Barnett. We posted the Original Stop Motion OPERATOR a while back and were Excited to Learn Mr. Barnett was turning it Into a Web Series (in Fact Operator Episode 3 is Currently in Production with a TBA Release Date).

When Asked about the Operator Series Barnett was Quoted as Saying the Following.

“I released Operator as a standalone short in 2013 and got much more recognition than I ever anticipated. I got inspired to make more and spent the next two years (between working other jobs) writing 14 new episodes. I got interest from a major studio to make it as a feature but it didn’t pan out. I considered working with a smaller horror production company that wanted to make it as a webseries but it wasn’t as good fit. After two years developing the series I decided to stop waiting for permission from studios and launched a successful kickstarter campaign to make Episode 2 wich We released in 2017.”

Note To Reader: First Off We highly Suggest You watch the Original Episode of Operator before watching Episode 2 since Episode 2 starts where Episode 1 Ends.

Brief Recap: The Story Follows A Blue Collar Worker Who Works Tirelessly for a Giant Faceless Corporation. He Labors away Day in and Day Out Confined to a Small Cramped Room doing Menial Tasks for His Entire Shift. One Day at Work an Unknown Creature finds its Way into The Man’s Utility like Room and Attacks Him. The Mysterious Creature Climbs onto the Man’s Head and Proceeds to take over His Body, But that’s Not All. If You want to Know the Ending of Episode 1 You’ll have to Watch it and See for Yourself.

Enjoy.
