Microwave Massacre (1983)

In the heart of suburbia, Donald, a desolate middle-aged construction worker, grapples with the mundane monotony of his life, accentuated by his nagging wife May's incessant quest for an extravagant lifestyle. Her latest acquisition, Major Electric's cutting-edge microwave oven, model X1-74A, promises a culinary revolution that leaves Donald yearning for the modest, hearty meals of yesteryear. Trapped in a gastronomic limbo, Donald watches with envy as even their pet pooch enjoys a superior diet. May's increasingly elaborate, yet unsatisfying meals push an already discontent Donald to the edge. One fateful night, fueled by frustration and alcohol, he succumbs to his darkest impulses and silences May's shrill harping forever. In the aftermath, a grisly yet serendipitous discovery sees Donald repurpose the contentious microwave in an unthinkable manner. A single taste of this forbidden cuisine reveals a tantalizing sweetness - an addictive blend of horror and satisfaction that leaves Donald craving more. His health flourishes with every bite, each serving a grim reminder of his gruesome secret. As Donald's culinary adventures spiral into the macabre, he realizes the chilling truth - he's running out of time. The refrigerator, a chilling tomb of evidence, threatens to expose his grisly secret. Donald must navigate the perilous path he's carved for himself, a path that echoes the haunting adage - 'we are what we eat'. As the stakes become graver, Donald's descent into culinary madness promises a darkly comedic exploration of despair, desperation, and disturbingly innovative gastronomy.
