🎧 KILLER CARGO — Act Two | Written by Heather Foster

Christmas Eve. Branson, Missouri. One deserted airport. One forty-foot Christmas tree. One passenger who was never supposed to get off the plane.

Flight attendant Anita Fitzgerald and her insufferable copilot, Kevin Powers, have somehow survived the flight from hell. The jet is on the ground, the cabin door is shut, and whatever crawled out of that mysterious cargo pod is safely locked inside.

Or so they think.

While Kevin self-medicates with stolen whiskey and a Santa hat, Anita waits for their billionaire boss to arrive with help. Meanwhile, a foul-mouthed cleaning woman is having a spectacularly bad night, the Christmas decorations are about to become a serious liability, and something very hungry has discovered the joys of airport travel.

Turns out surviving the flight was the easy part.

KILLER CARGO is back with more mayhem, more questionable decisions, and a rapidly growing alien with absolutely no respect for personal space. The terminal is closed, the body count is rising, and the only thing standing between humanity and a very unpleasant Christmas morning might be two people who can barely stand each other.

Featuring Ashley Bell as Anita Fitzgerald, Darin Toonder as Kevin Powers, Shaan Sharma as Captain Charles Song, Jade Tailor as Daria Jagoda, Charles Halford as Cliff Krantz, Ed You as Idris Bowman, Matt Curtin as Arnie Heim, and Sarah Phillips as Madge, with Tim Friedlander narrating.

🎧 QUESTA Act 3 | by Victor Bumbalo

Chelsea, 1991. The truth catches up.

Father James comes looking for answers. Paul finally gives him one. He killed Will. But the priest tells him not to confess to Lori and not to go to the police. Let her keep believing her son was loved.

Paul says goodbye to the woman whose life he destroyed without ever telling her why.

Then Daniel steps out of the shadows.

The witness who saw everything that night tells Paul he lied to the police on purpose. He gave them the wrong face. He protected him. And now he tells Paul the one thing Paul never expected to hear from anyone again.

He loves him.

With nowhere left to hide and nothing left to go back to, Paul decides to leave New York for a tiny town in New Mexico where his family was happy once.

Questa.

QUESTA is a devastating, lyrical, morally serious story about grief, faith, and forgiveness. Monster's Ball meets Manchester by the Sea.

🎧 KILLER CARGO | Act One | Written by Heather Foster

Christmas Eve. Springfield, Missouri. One luxury jet. One secret shipment. One spectacularly bad idea.

For flight attendant Anita Fitzgerald, the night is already complicated. She's sleeping with a married captain, dodging the advances of an insufferable copilot, and trying to survive another holiday in the service of the obscenely wealthy.

Then three nervous men board with a six-foot, frosted-white container. Nobody will say what's inside. Nobody wants to be near it.

And somewhere over Missouri, something starts moving.

KILLER CARGO is a wickedly funny, gloriously twisted sci-fi horror ride where the seats are leather, the liquor is top-shelf, and turbulence is the least of anyone's problems.

Featuring Ashley Bell as Anita Fitzgerald, Darin Toonder as Kevin Powers, Shaan Sharma as Captain Charles Song, Jade Tailor as Daria Jagoda, Charles Halford as Cliff Krantz, Ed You as Idris Bowman, Matt Curtin as Arnie Heim, and Sarah Phillips as Madge, with Tim Friedlander narrating.
