Housewife's Guide to Murder

This dark comedy horror short is a twisted parody of 1950s how-to videos, with a cheerful yet sinister charm. Patty is the perfect 1950s housewife, trapped in a pristine kitchen in an oppressive marriage. As her frustration with her controlling husband, George, boils over, she starts hearing a voice—the calm, trustworthy B.W. Man, the unseen narrator from The Black Widow Corporation. He’s always there, pushing eerie household products, and his voice is soothing, almost too soothing. The voice slowly leads Patty to kill her husband.
