Ghost-Mortem #8, 19th May 2020
Featured film: Downstairs, Don't Go

In the last episode, the audience shared a lot of interesting theories about the security guard character in the featured film. Many felt that in modern horror films, the night watchman takes the place of the Butler in the classic Whodunit movies. This week we feature an award winning horror short film, Downstairs. We think you might fall in love with the lead character and change your mind about security guards.

Sidney Chan, director of Delete, which we featured in the last episode, got in touch with us and sent us a new horror short film that was inspired by the Covid-19 quarantine.

Ghost-Mortem #5, 28th April 2020
Featured film: Kookie, Seagrass

Since we are on our fifth show, I thought maybe we can throw something a little bit more kooky than our usual ghost-in-the-doorway type of story. This one has a child protagonist, something that was lacking in our previous featured short films. This time round we make audience start to think about where the real horror is. Is it the clown? Or could there be something inherently wrong and deviant with the living.
