I Heart Eating Brains

Recommended by

  • Cole Hunter Dzubak: I Heart Eating Brains

    This is a great horror satire that looks at the stereotypes surrounding monsters and how some people just don't seem to care. Emily McClain crafted this story brilliantly and effortlessly (at least from a reader's point of view)!

    Emily McClain achieves so much in this delightful ten-minute play, establishing a believable point of conflict and some fleshed-out characters before bringing in one with a little less flesh but plenty of self-advocacy. The ZVWMG+ turn is beautifully rendered and immediately secured my full admiration for this quippy short play. A great seasonal piece (obviously), and would be a delight in a site-specific location.

    This zippy horror/comedy pokes fun at woke culture and PC-ness while being twisted enough to satisfy the scary cravings of horror fans. Strong character work and natural dialogue, plus an ending that serves up the perfect capper to this short piece. Great fun!
