The air in London was damp and cold, a stark contrast to the vibrant warmth of Kathmandu that Anmol often dreamed of. It had been five years since he left Nepal for the United Kingdom, chasing the dreams his mother, Susmita, had envisioned for him. She had sacrificed everything-her small savings, her comfort, and her daily joy of having her son by her side-so Anmol could study and build a better life abroad. Anmol was a hard worker, juggling university classes and long hours at Amrish's restaurant. The boss, a shrewd businessman, valued profits over people. Anmol, like the rest of the staff, was little more than a cog in the relentless machinery of the restaurant's success. One evening, after another grueling 12-hour shift, Anmol sat on his small bed in his shared apartment. His phone buzzed. It was his mother. "Anmol, Dashain and Tihar are coming. I've cleaned the house and even set aside some money to buy your favorite sweets.

100 Best Kills dates back to the earliest days of Fantastic Fest, a cornerstone of the fest’s grand tradition of lowbrow pandemonium. In previous years, we’ve focused our knee-slapping man-reaping sights on everything from vehicular mayhem to gut-busting infanticide. We brought you Vehikills and decapitations during the pandemic years; You sick and depraved fools still couldn’t get enough! We were banging our heads against the warm walls of the Alamo and it must have been the perfect mix of patriotism and stupidity that opened the floodgates to creative genius. For this, my hungry hippos, we said to ourselves, We must bring in Louise Weard, Filmmaker, writer, programmer, and even a Canadian, to join our very own Zack Carlson to help make this the greatest kills of all time. We proudly raise the flag, salute your shorts, and present 100 BEST KILLS : Texas Birth Control, Dick Destruction... A celebration and reliably comforting countdown of castrations.
