THE RUG
Made with a crew of amazing senior citizens, this short horror film centres around Edna (Jayne Eastwood), a senior aged woman who discovers that a discarded throw rug she has found will, for lack of a better word, digest anything left under it. The more it digests, the more it wants. After devouring her pesky landlord and a nosey cop, the rug has gotten so frisky that Edna finds herself trapped in her own home with no way out. Funded in part by the New Horizons for Seniors Program.
Available to watch on February 1st, 2026.
