These fun and frantic short films—comedy, drama, animation, music videos—tell the twisted tales of terrified souls caught in inescapable situations, trapped inside the machine. Whether you’re hanging out with your best friend’s corpse, convinced you’ve been abducted by aliens, vying for elusive Internet fame, made of uncontrollable rubber material, or trying to escape the cycle of a defective justice system there’s a method to the madness and it’s often entertaining as hell.
