New snack-sized frights are available to stream every Friday for the next several weeks. Episodes also air Fridays at 8pm ET on the linear, always-on channel SCREAMBOX TV.
Season 14, Episode 7 features the following two horror shorts…
Kombucha!
Director: Jake Myers
Starring: Terrence Carey, Claire McFadden
A musician trapped in an office job tries the free kombucha that helps his coworkers hit their quotas with a smile. Unfortunately, the kombucha has a series of nasty side effects that give new meaning to being consumed by your work.
Myer’s states, “Kombucha! is about Luke, who is caught between his creative pursuits and making money. We do all sorts of things to cope with this internal struggle and function in a world where we are seldom compensated well for doing what we love. Kombucha! is a grotesque depiction of these coping mechanisms wreaking havoc within. My goal was to create David Cronenberg’s version of Office Space.”
In the Dark
Director: Bronson Allen
Starring: Kimberly-Ann Truong, Luke Humphrey
Emily, a young woman who’s had a string of bad dates with weird men, thinks she’s finally found the perfect guy in James, her new beau. But an initially charming date at his apartment turns dark when a monstrous secret is revealed.
