Video Friday

Today it’s all about horror, folks. Well, kind of. The first video is the short film Reverse Parthenogenesis, starring Buffy alums Amber Benson and Adam Busch, and it’s all about the antichrist. Written by Javier Grillo-Marxuach, Reverse Parthenogenesis is light-hearted fare (if you have my askew and irreverent sensibilities), based on the description:

Julie and Saul Winslow are a happily married couple thinking about having a baby… but when the two decide to have their genome mapped in order to know for sure that their child will be healthy, the test reveals a secret that will not only test their mutual trust and the integrity of their marriage, but also threaten the very future of humanity as they know it.

Co-starring Edmund Lupinski as Dr. Elias Kittridge, a family physician faced with an apocalyptic revelation hidden in the couple’s DNA, “Reverse Parthenogenesis” is is a darker-than-dark comedy about love, relationships, the pitfalls of potential parenthood… and the limitless capacity for evil at the pit of every living soul.

D is a short animated horror film written, directed, and edited by Rafael Velásquez Stanbury. How much murder can one pen hold, I ask you? Lovely stuff.
