A talking bowl of oatmeal,mental illness and raw meat. Combine the three and you've got one hell of a film. The dark short tells of a lonely shut-in who is taunted by a talking bowl of breakfast porridge. Isolation, despair and madness eventually lead the man to construct a lover out of a variety of uncooked meats. The film is perfection and the final scene will stay with you for days. I first saw 'Bowl of Oatmeal' back in 1996 as part of a student film & video festival and have never forgotten it. Since then I have been searching for a copy to share with others so that they may see the brilliance for themselves. This is one film that should be in everyone's video library!
