WE GOT A MONKEY'S PAW - Indie Horror/Comedy short to Premiere online

A couple of roommates get into an impawsibly hairy situation while monkeying around with the occult.

Zack and Jakki are your typical “oddcouple” roommates. Jakki (Jacqueline Jandrell) likes staying in and reading a good book now and again, while Zack (Zack Ogle) has other hobbies, like summoning demons.

Things get hairy when Zack convinces Jakki to spend the day making wishes on a Monkey’s Paw.

Soon the two find themselves doing backflips, trying to undo the cataclysmic series of events they’ve set off.

Ghostbrides, demon boxes and dead-y bears, oh my! 

This paw is definitely in the wrong hands.

Filmed by Indie director Aaron Pagniano, who also co-wrote the script with lead actor Zack Ogle, and shot over several months in their free time, this short film has played at over 35 festivals around the world, winning multiple awards, including accolades for directing, writing, editing, and for Jacqueline Jandrell’s hilarious performance. 

This zany comedy is jam-packed with clever nods to horror tropes and is a love-letter to the genre. The film is finishing up it's current festival run, and will be premiering online with Alter on September 18th.
