ABOUT:
Duncan Smith-Holmes is a struggling young actor who is in desperate need of a paying gig or he has to leave Hollywood. But a bizarre casting call and an opportunity to land a major role in a high budget movie is something he can’t pass up — no matter what the consequences.
REVIEW:
Satan’s Casting Call is a quick read at just over 9000 words. While the story is entertaining, it does lack the depth that keeps you emotionally attached to any characters.
Duncan is an out-of-work actor and he’ll do anything to get in the limelight. He arrives at an open casting call, and is astonished to find out he is the only person there for the audition. After discussing the project with the producer, Duncan decides that this role is far too important, and high-paying to let it slip from his fingers. The only problem is the people involved want the actor to resemble the main character… to the point of disfiguration.
Desperate and broke, Duncan seeks whatever it will take to land this role. How far would you be willing to go, and for how much money?
This was tasty tidbit of horror that reminded me of The Twilight Zone.
