A nun (Holly McLachlan) is asking God for advice, but it's the Devil (Rich
Millyard) who answers ...
- Night Cap: Father Gabriel (Chris Mills) has hired a
prostitute (Annabella Rich) for the night, well knowing she's
possessed and could do with an exorcism - thing is, she knows that he
knows ...
- If Only You Could Speak: A puppeteer (Simon Berry) does a
kiddie show on the internet about the value of friendship. Thing is,
he feels so desparately alone he wishes his puppets could come to live
to give him company - but of course, be careful what you wish for ...
- The Lodger, Carey: Landlord Alan (Martin W. Payne) is more
than happy to take lovely petite Carey (Robyn Adams) in as his lodger,
figuring he can take advantage of her - but not factoring in that she
might have other uses for him ...
- Death Valley: Two friends on a zoom call (Amanda Bourne,
Hannah Cait-Harrison) talk about Death Valley a bit too much so they
unintentionally let a wraith (Ella Palmer) into their conversation.
And the wraith has no nice intentions ...
- Sweet Dreams: She has been plagued by bad dreams too long, so
it's only too late that she realizes her hotel room really is haunted
...
- Ruby Rain: Allen (Jamie Brown) has decided to become a masked
serialkiller, taking it out on his girlfriend (Sarah Boulter) and his
parents (Jacqueline Phillips, Ken Wood) first - but serial killing
turns out not to be the squeaky-clean job it was made out to be ...
Trash Arts Killers: Volume Three sure is lots of fun, especially
for its versatility when it comes to its approach to the genre, from the
dead serious to the deceptively twisted to the wickedly funny - but what
all the segments do have in common is that they're well-structured,
creepy, and do have a certain EC
Comics aura to them, tapping into in a good way old-fashioned
short stories and morality plays, but at the same time never feeling
antiquated, and pretty much delivering to the dedicated horror fan just
the amount of gruesomeness, suspense and black humour they want and
deserve.
