What do you really want from a horror film? For many of us, it’s the monster – the chilling creature at the heart of the story and the mythology that gives it power. In Dark Mommy , filmmaker Courtney Eck delivers exactly that: a haunting, unforgettable new figure in horror cinema, and a short film that lingers long after the credits roll. - S/W Curator, Rob Munday
