This week on The ALTER Tapes, Jamie and Bobby discuss Devi Snively’s 2009 short, ‘Death in Charge.’ We get representations of death, an unlikely friend duo, and a look at how dangerous boxed mac n cheese can be.

Premise: An impatient single mom leaves her nine year old daughter, Whitney, with Death, carelessly mistaking the dark-cloaked, scythe-carrying Reaper for her tardy babysitter. When Whitney reveals some dark tendencies of her own, it’s up to Death to lighten things up before returning to its grim duties.
