Screen 7: 12:47am

Depicted through the lens of horror this short film is the expression of rotting emotional entanglement. 

"Darner" tells the story of a woman who, unable to let her ailing husband go, begins to literally patch him together — transforming him into a grotesque quilt of devotion. 

As her obsession deepens, her own identity unravels, blurring the lines between love, control, and madness. Rooted in traditional female crafts like sewing and darning, the film explores the visceral horrors of caregiving, grief, and the slow erasure of self.

Screen 8 - 7pm

Spoiling You is a psychologically charged nightmare about isolation, obsession and the horrors we invite into our lives when we are desperate to feel seen. 

Drew, a lonely insomniac, clings to the online comfort of Miss Mutter, a seductive ASMR-style creator whose videos promise intimacy, care and unconditional attention. When he wins a competition to meet her in person, Drew follows the call with blind devotion. His fantasy curdles into a waking hallucination of affection, manipulation and control. A labyrinth of foam walls, plastic floors and artificial warmth becomes a stage upon which he must unlearn himself.
As Drew is pushed deeper into submission, the boundaries of performance, identity and worship collapse.

Screen 8 - 9:25pm

In the near future, the crew of the research vessel Orpheus embarks on a deep-space mission to investigate a derelict spacecraft drifting near the edge of a black hole. Upon boarding the ghost ship, they discover strange ancient relics and a sealed sarcophagus-evidence of a long-forgotten expedition that disappeared centuries ago. Dismissing the superstitions of one crewmember, the team brings the sarcophagus aboard the Orpheus for study. But as they journey back toward Earth, the crew begins to vanish-one by one-under mysterious and violent circumstances. Blood drained, bodies mangled, the deaths point to no ordinary cause. Surveillance footage offers only glimpses of a shadowy figure with glowing red eyes moving inhumanly fast. Panic sets in as systems fail, lights flicker, and paranoia consumes the survivors. They soon uncover the truth: the sarcophagus housed none other than Count Dracula himself, who had been imprisoned in deep space long ago in a desperate attempt to contain his evil.
