Premise

Stacey is a highly self-conscious bank teller who starts to use an ointment that provokes an unusual reaction. She has an uncommon hobby; taxidermy…., and another that is not so uncommon…. TV watching. The two will merge in her pursuit of beauty.

About the Chapter

Well, in this episode, we are really entertained by the great performances, the director’s sharp sense of irony and dark humor, and, of course, top notch production, from photography to editing and special effects.

The fish eye lens effect that so fantastically distorts the characters, is so appropriate for this story, which is brought to us from the protagonist’s perspective.

Enjoy the twisted, absurd, wonderfully crafted horror episode.
