Love Shack

Quentin Boyer does the PR for an adult entertainment company.  So when he heard about the 2012 apocalypse, he thought that building an apocalypse bunker to shield his performers would be a great PR move.  But as the date approaches, he becomes less concerned about publicity--and more about survival.

Producer: Stephanie Foo


The End of Us
Stephanie Foo and her boyfriend became enamored with the idea of the apocalypse on a whim.  But they soon realized that it wasn’t the end of the world they were obsessed with--it was fear itself.
