BOW YOUR HEADS

Courtney Smith / 2020 / 12 min.

A short film horror/suspense about Thanksgiving. What starts out as a seemingly normal Thanksgiving turns into a night of horror when the matriarch of the family becomes possessed.

From the filmmaker:
I got this idea one night when I was at a family dinner and my aunt was running her mouth, successfully and getting on my nerves. Then I thought what would it be like if you could bring up all the issues never talked about in a black family. I just wanted to make a film that had meaning but also fun. I just wanted the audience to feel and question their own family dynamic.
