Synopsis/Details
It's Halloween night! Host Hal O' Ween has a story to tell the world and that story involves a college freshman named Rob who is dealing with a bad break up. Rob is trying to lick his wounds after he found out his boyfriend of three years is married to a woman and has four kids. Rob's friends Jillian, Mark, Frankie, Alice and Mike arrive to his apartment on Halloween dressed in costumes inspired by various pop culture people. Jillian is dressed as Regina George from "Mean Girls". Alice is dressed as Velma Dinkley from 'Scooby Doo'. Mike is dressed as an Instagram Model. Mark is dressed as his Drag persona "Dulce Amore". Frankie is dressed like Pastor Joel Osteen. They arrive to tell Rob they're heading to the new club Flango Mango, news that Rob didn't know about because Jillian wanted to surprise him. Rob is against the idea because it breaks their tradition which is watching the cult classic film franchise "Miller The Killer". The friends want to do a new tradition and Rob reluctantly changes his mind and runs upstairs to change into his Miller the Killer costume. Frankie is in the mood for Chocolate Pudding and he is the first victim when he is killed by Miller as he tried to get some Chocolate Pudding. Jillian and Rob talk about Dave-Rob's ex- and he decides to go to the club and just dance the night away. Jillian goes to the bathroom in the hall to talk selfies, because it has the best lighting, and she is murdered by Miller. Downstairs Dulce and Alice argue which upsets Mike because he was going to ask Alice out. Miller the Killer joins the group of friends downstairs and they think it's Rob. Miller whacks Mike over the head with a blunt object killing him causing Alice and Dulce to run into the backyard (because it's a horror short and cliches are fun). Alice falls and Miller breaks her neck. Dulce runs away and dies of a heart attack, Miller returns to the house to confront Rob and Miller unmasks to reveal...they're ROB! Apparently they're the side of Rob that is killing his friends metaphorically because he is focusing too much on his heartbreak instead of living life to the fullest. Miller stabs Rob in the stomach and Rob wakes up on the sofa! Apparently the entire thing was a nightmare! His friends come over eager to watch the Miller the Killer movie marathon but Rob says that he wants to start a new tradition where they go out to enjoy the holiday at the club. As they talk the door opens and a killer clown runs in prepared to kill everyone. The end!
