KILLER CARGO - Act Two
🎧 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. Act Two of Three. Written by Heather Foster. Produced by Table Read Podcast and Manifest Media Productions, LLC.

KILLER CARGO - Act 1
🎧 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. Act One of Three. Written by Heather Foster. Produced by Table Read Podcast and Manifest Media Productions, LLC.

SuburbaKnight - Act 3
SUBURBAKNIGHT: Act Three Walter Knope has spent most of his life avoiding confrontation. That is about to become difficult. Walter, Samantha and Bobby Joe cross the street armed with a sword, a crossbow, a mace, a revolver and one deeply impractical suit of medieval armor. Richard is waiting. So is the rest of the neighborhood. Inside Richard's house they discover the party has evolved into something considerably less HOA-approved. Music. Neon. Blood. An orgy full of succubi. Richard sitting above it all like Satan's sexiest homeowners association president. Samantha asks where her daughter is. Then shoots Richard through the eye with a crossbow. It barely slows him down. Written by Nick Bannister, SUBURBAKNIGHT reaches its gloriously unhinged conclusion as Walter's fight to save his family becomes a full-scale supernatural war over everything he thought he had already lost. Richard separates them. Walter gets beaten nearly unconscious. Samantha is pulled into a seductive nightmare built from everything she thinks she wants. And Bobby Joe does what any legendary demon hunter would do when confronted with actual demons. He runs. Unfortunately, Richard isn't finished with him either. Bobby Joe finds himself inside the greatest fantasy of his life: back on the set of Terror Vision, surrounded by beautiful women telling him he's brilliant. Even Bobby Joe eventually realizes something is wrong. When the illusion breaks, he finds Mia. Or at least something wearing Mia. One conveniently placed antique mirror later, Bobby Joe finally discovers that some of his monster-movie bullshit may actually be useful. For perhaps the first time in his life, Bobby Joe Williams earns the title: Demon Hunter. Mia is safe. Her parents aren't. So Bobby Joe locks her in his van and goes back inside. Walter and Bobby Joe reunite, fight their way through Richard's newly demonic neighbors and discover something hidden beneath the perfect suburban house. A passageway. An underground chamber. And portraits proving Richard has been doing this for centuries. At the end of the tunnel, Walter finds Samantha. Richard has already gotten to her. Now Walter has to do something harder than fighting a demon. He has to remind his wife why she loved him in the first place. College. Their first night together. Bringing Mia home. Losing his father. Twenty years of marriage, mistakes, resentment, forgiveness and everything that somehow survived underneath it. For once, Walter gets the words right. And Richard discovers that a disappointing middle-aged husband with an antique sword, a pissed-off wife and a washed-up horror host can be surprisingly difficult to kill. What follows involves swords, guns, fire, a full-size demon, one extremely unfortunate anatomical injury and Bobby Joe's panel van. Because sometimes saving your marriage takes work. Sometimes it takes therapy. And sometimes it takes blowing up an incubus. Starring Darin Toonder, Jim O'Heir, Jade Tailor, Jack Daniel, Rob Fitzgerald, Logan Laurel, Emily Brolin, Ashley Platz, and Zeke Alton. Produced by Table Read Podcast and Manifest
