Happy Friday, readers! We made it though another week somehow, so why not celebrate by taking a load off and enjoying some excellent horror shorts from an array of subgenres?
Just because I felt like we could all use a laugh right about now, I’m kicking off today’s installment of Salutes Your Shorts with the dark comedy Sam Did It. Then, we have a special effects showcase to behold in Human Cattle from directors Carlos Henriques and Phil Pattison, and for a double dose of creepiness, be sure to check out both I Heard It Too and The Sermon (which I haven’t been able to get out of my head since I discovered it a few weeks ago.
Sam Did It (Directed by Dominic Burgess)
Synopsis: Sam is about to meet his celebrity idol... the only problem is, Sam works in a morgue... and his idol is dead.

Robin Williams was set to star in a follow-up to his breakthrough hit, Good Morning Vietnam. And it was fully written, too...
The 1987 comedy-drama Good Morning, Vietnam was a very unconventional hit movie. A war film, and a hugely comedic one, it remains most remembered, not unfairly, for being the breakout movie role for Robin Williams, seizing his moment and his day with incredible impact.
Williams, by this stage of his career, was already hugely popular on television, courtesy of Mork & Mindy. But the genesis of the movie that would ignite his film career actually lay back to even before then, in 1979. That’s when the real-life Adrian Cronauer, on whose story the film is based, pitched a sitcom based around his experiences as DJ in the Vietnam War. It got the interest of agent Larry Brezner, who bought an option on the story. But television networks...

Stars: Robin Williams, Forest Whitaker, Tung Thanh Tran, Chintara Sukapatana, Bruno Kirby, Robert Wuhl, J.T. Walsh, Noble Willingham | Written by Mitch Markowitz | Directed by Barry Levinson
The death of Robin Williams has been publicised massively over the last number of days, a shocking loss to the film industry, Williams was a beloved performer who had many fans, and so obviously there has been an outpouring of emotion since he passed away. I was a fan of Robin Williams and as a fan I have my favourites in terms of his library of films and television, the top of the heap being the 1987 comedy-drama, Good Morning, Vietnam, which I will be reviewing here, in both a tribute to the man himself, but also as a way to talk about one of my personal favourite comedy drama films and one I revisit every year or two and always enjoy.
