    Film Review: MAKE ME A SANDWICH (2019) (Short Film)

    Peter 'Witchfinder' HopkinsBy Peter 'Witchfinder' Hopkins27th March 2020No Comments1 Min Read

    MAKE ME A SANDWICH **** Canada 2019 Dir: Peter Hatch. 3 mins

    Here’s a stripped-down vision of domestic hell from Toronto’s wonderfully named Deformed Lunchbox horror filmmaking collective. It has a monstrous performance from Peter Hodgins and it’s his relentless grouchy plea of “Where’s my sandwich?” that establishes his demanding harridan of a husband / couch potato character and opens the film. Hodgins’ long suffering, frequently insulted wife serves him up something he deserves and, as his demands get meaner (“What part of ‘sandwich’ do you not understand?”), the culinary delights she constructs become grosser. Cannily filmed so that the downtrodden wife / slave Marcy is physically entrapped within the frame, this pays off with a wonderful closing pull back shot of the grossly maggot-ridden, decomposed husband that’s worthy of an EC Comics panel from the 1950’s.
