Prepare to be scared by this block of Horror shorts ranging from psychological to slasher.
Content Advisory: Films in this block may contain triggering and/or sensitive language or material, including depictions of frightening/disturbing images, violence, and sexual content.
Quinn (Jenny Raven) has become accustomed to relying on technology for all of her needs-- her social life, her entertainment and her validation. When a software update asking for access to her location is gladly accepted, Quinn gets a notification for a free sleep app: ‘Memory Lane Antiques.’ Again, Quinn accepts and thinks nothing of it.
As the app begins to play, we hear the soothing voice of our narrator (Rainbow Sun Francks) who explains he will help her forget her worries and ease her to sleep, one muscle at a time. As Quinn unwinds, the voice begins to tell the serene and calming tale of Memory Lane Antiques. As Quinn drifts to sleep, we go on the journey with her.
Everything seems to be ideal and cozy in this dream scape, from the shop’s atmosphere to the elderly, sweet shopkeeper (Colm Feore).
But Quinn soon realizes she has no control over the images she is seeing and the sensations she is experiencing. She has lost control of her own movements and nothing is as it first appeared. This serene dream has now become a nightmare.
