Roadkill Delivers a Terrific Blend of Comedy and Horror

By Tanner Sell

Roadkill is a short film from Ava Fumarolo, which comically depicts the horror of hitting something on the road. With each passing minute, we are left with a threatening sense of unrest as title cards tick by, one after another. Sometimes the moment reveals an unexpected scare; other times, it leaves us with a laugh. Regardless, in the short few minutes that “Roadkill” runs, you must always be on your toes.

Ava Fumarolo does a great job of converging aspects of comedy and horror to create this engaging short film. “Roadkill” is simply fun and leaves you wanting more of it. Nothing is overdone or overwritten; it is a tight experience that packs a punch of creativity and fills your lungs with fresh air.

I am pleased to rate this film with 5 out of 5 stars.
