Doomed to spend Christmas Eve with her judgmental mother as a monstrous zit invades her face, makeup artist Val turns to the black market to buy a discontinued but supposedly miraculous face mask. When its application doesn’t go as planned, Val must decide how far she’ll go for clear skin and maternal validation.

Dive in for some body horror for the long holiday break.

This is the final OMINOUS THRILL episode of 2024 - we'll be back in Feb 2025!
