My rating: 3 of 5 stars
Weird short story. 5 cheerleaders returning after cheering something or other. Packed into one car. One of them, Laurie, is eating Jaime Lee Curtis poop yogurt and suddenly ‘has to go’. Despite not wishing to pull over, the woman pull over (Laurie has some kind of ‘whammy’ power that gets people to do things if she words things ‘just right’ (which apparently involves her opening her mouth and saying things). The others apparently/supposedly also have some kind of other ‘stuff’ going on with them, though the one that’s important to the story would be the lead narrator – Heather. Who used to be a zombie.
So, as I was saying, they pull over. Stopping at a ‘convenience store with gas’ so Laurie can poo. The place looks like it’s the set for a horror movie. Complete with jars of, apparently, human meat.
As I said – weird story. Then the convenience store attendant turns into a werewolf or something (a wendigo).
And then some cheerleader moves were performed, wendigos were flying all over the place and . . . stuff happened.
