2024 Halloween Shopping
Happy Halloween shopping 2024! For over two decades now, the Halloween shopping season has been my main time for household and clothing purchases. Each year, I love to shop around
My favorite horror films take something mundane and turn it into something extraordinary – they find the horror in the things we interact with or experience every day. One of the most creative films I have seen in this regard is “Killer Kart“, a short film by James Feeney.
The plot is pretty standard: Cass (actress Christine Alicia Rodriguez), a grocery store manager helps her staff close up for the evening only to find that it is anything but business as usual for the night. The remaining staff find that a monster lurks the aisles, ready to devour all who cross its path. What sets this horror-comedy apart is that the titular monster is in fact a sentient grocery kart. The audience can never be quite sure whether it should laugh or scream as the kart continues its rampage of carnage.
“Killer Kart” was created as a student film for The Florida State University College of Motion Picture Arts in 2012, but still holds up as a fun watch. Its practical effects add to the horror and humor – using real creativity in the creature design and the kills. It played at numerous film festivals around the United States, including Screamfest Horror Film Festival (what I believe to be the pinnacle of horror festivals in the U.S.). It is still one of my favorites of the Screamfest short films and I am very excited to be able to share it with the readers of this blog.
