The McCoubrey Brothers Have been Making Music Videos and TV Commercials but, Peter Tells the Short “arose from our desire to delve a bit deeper into character and story than the parameters of music video or commercial ever could allow”.


"Having a soft spot for the genre movies of the 80s, we’ve always loved way they often bounced around from horror — to comedy — to enigmatic — to just flat out weird… as well as their inventive use of practical FX. Films like An American Werewolf in London, Return of the Living Dead, Big Trouble in Little China,The Fly, Brain Damage and Brazil all had a level of influence over the film’s initial conception. We wanted to honor the wild, inventive, and playful spirit of those films but at the same time create a film that felt modern, cinematic and hopefully leave the audience wanting more."
