Truly anything can be the villain of a horror movie it seems, and I do mean anything. From killer Kombucha bottles to deadly donuts to sentient tires and evil bongs, there really is no object too random or absurd to come to life and wreak havoc in a horror film. These films aren’t so much striving for quality as banking on morbid curiosity, so the real trick is convincing the viewer that once they’ve started something like Death Toilet 5: Invasion of the Potty Snatchers there is actually enough entertaining content to keep them there for ninety minutes.

When I saw that “killer burrito” is what seems to have come out of the random word generator that I assume people are using to craft these ideas I didn’t have high hopes for All You Can Eat. Even though these types of films aren’t going for anything more than campy fun they more often than not fail to even hit that mark and are simply insufferable. Imagine my surprise then when this odd story of a fast food worker (Verity Hayes) who is rightly suspicious of the weird experiments her boss (Andy Muskett) is doing in the kitchen turned out to be not just passable but downright entertaining.

The fact that it’s a short helps All You Can Eat not overstay it’s welcome but after a well-paced and engaging thirteen minutes I was actually ready and willing to see more. No, this short about murderous Mexican food isn’t going to blow any minds seeking a rich, complex story but it does manage to succeed where so many have failed and deliver a bite-sized chunk of genuine horror fun that is both bloody and satisfying.
