You're apt to see some scary good costumes on Halloween, but if you've ever wondered if somebody's costume is a little too convincing, perhaps teetering on the edge of being real, then you should really dig Paul Davis' short film, The Body. Following a no-nonsense hitman as he drags his plastic-wrapped victim through London on All Hallow's Eve, this short is a tasty horror comedy treat that's available to view for free today.

"WINNER OF THE 2014 MELIES d'OR AWARD!

A professionall killer (Alfie Allen, GAME OF THRONES) discovers he can get away with anything on Halloween night, including dragging his latest victim around as a prop amidst a sea of oblivious London partiers.
