Wayne, an awkward loner, has just started working the graveyard shift as an apprentice mortician. When his merciless supervisor leaves him alone and in charge for the night, Wayne decides to make the most of it. Starring Anton Yelchin, this controversial short film was cut from the theatrical release of "Movie 43" for pushing the boundaries too far.
