The Last Tram
By Min Kahng
Nostalgia devolves into nightmare for the five strangers aboard the final Canery Studios Tram Tour. Amidst unruly animatronics and a sense of impending doom, one rider in particular keeps having troubling hallucinations of his estranged-now-dead father. Unearth the sinister secret behind the theme park in this dark comedy about commercialized memories and the price we pay to create our own happiness.
