Horror-Comedy Short Film
Date:    2025
Role:    Director, Co-Writer, Producer, Editor, Actor

A hilarious and gory comedy-horror based on my writing partner Cat and her wife’s struggles to choose a sperm donor. Self-produced.

Bailey and Amanda want to have a baby. They’ve got the perfect list of sperm donors line up and force ranked. There’s just one problem…

Their potential baby daddies won’t stop dying/

Falling tree branches, fatal spin classes, art installations gone wrong, skydiving accidents. Even their “celebrity stretch goal” meets a gruesome fate. Are these two would-be moms just unlucky? Are they cursed?

Or is there something even more sinister going on?
