Description
A frivolous jazz singer pursues a recording contract with a man who believes himself to be the new Messiah. A pair of female explorers take an expedition that may be a "red herring" for something far more sinister. A thirteen-year-old girl is sent under mysterious circumstances to live with her reclusive, exotic Aunt Kira where she begins to suspect that her idol, along with not being a blood relative, may also not be human. These are some of the shady ladies of Funhouse Mirrors. Running the gamut from mystery and comedy to drama and the fantastic and set in locations including the idyllic tropics of Key West, the icy desolation of Antarctica, remote and malignant mountains, and the squalor and cacophony of Manhattan's Lower East Side, these stories all share a common thread -- a shady lady or two. They are enigmatic, elusive and irresistible femme fatales. Like funhouse mirrors, they draw others into their skewed reality.
