The short, which is about 20 minutes long, is about Violet, a woman who struggles to fulfill her mother’s wish to be embalmed by her daughter. As Violet’s past connects to her present, she discovers an unsettling secret.
The short film was written, directed, and produced by Elwood Quincy Walker. You can find the short streaming on his YouTube channel (his channel is his name). Just search for The Mortician’s Daughter and you should find it.
Bonnie Aarons stars as Violet’s mother, and she was also a producer of the film. Hannah Barefoot and Logan Laurel both star as Violet at different ages, and Noel Jason Scott plays a corpse.
I just watched the short, and I liked it. Very atmospheric, and it has a few good moments of slight gore that might make you squirm.
