After being creeped out by The Creeping (2022-also reviewed) I decided to view a short at the online part of the Soho Horror Film Festival. Taken by the unique looking poster on the site,I got ready to bite into some meat.
View on the film:
Coming straight out of the microwave smiling, co-writer (with Steve Johanson, who voices the Meat Friend with a tasty line in passive-aggression) / director Izzy Lee & cinematographer Sophia Cacciola serve up an infectious Horror Comedy atmosphere, bursting with stylish over-saturated day-glo colours giving the Meat Friend a Children's TV puppet appearance, whose cheerful appearance Lee cuts through with wah-wah zoom-ins on Meat Friend revealing evil plans.
Serving up the ultimate dinner from Hell, the screenplay by Johanson and Lee merrily slides between gleefully daytime cooking and kids TV in the gloriously odd banter friendship between Billie and her friendly plate of meat, which decades, with Horror-Comedy dialogue, from the hellish plans being cooked up by Meat Friend.
