Welcome To Our Humble Home
On a quiet residential street, an unsuspecting family receives a strange visitor at their front door.... a gun-toting, paramilitary-type character who offers to come inside and demonstrate the use of firearms to the family. After being swiftly chased away by an understandably irate parent, "The Eliminator" finds a more socially acceptable means to gain access to the house by appearing on the family's television screen.
By making effective use of their trademark visual humour, The Flying Spot Players once again present a short drama that serves to question the values we place in aspects of our popular culture.
Running Time: 5 min, 15 sec.
