On a desolate farm, a couple's prayers are answered after a visitor offers them a sinister deal. Blinded by their joy, they struggle to realize that what they once desired may lead to their own unravelling.

More About "Cabbage":
While recovering from the grief of a miscarriage and a dry, dying farm,
Mabel and Abraham are visited by a strange traveler who offers them a
chance to wager their true love for each of their deepest desires. Their deal leads to the magical growth of a suspiciously bountiful baby from within their own farm, and a torrent of much needed rain. Upon these miracles, the two are suddenly plunged into a slow growing nightmare of their own creation, eventually finding themselves pitted against one another and forced to face the visceral consequences of the question: how far will one go to get what they desire?

Hi everyone! I’m Destinee, the director of this demented little tale about magic, manipulation, and the dark decisions desperation can lead to. I’ll be around to answer any questions people have or just to talk about the short, don’t hesitate to comment! HUGE thank you’s to the cast and crew for bringing Cabbage to life (and thank you ALTER for the support). If you’d like to see what else I’m up to, find my contacts in the bio! In the meantime, happy watching…
Texas Here!! I liked it!! Good job
This is a pretty dope short. Really creepy and haunting. Can’t wait to see what you direct next. Cheers!
Very interesting! Loved it! 💯
Well done.
So who really was the one who went mad
Stories like this one have always lingered in my head. Personally, the thing that makes me uneasy is that there is no winning or being safe.
Either you deny the weary traveler entry to your home, and they curse you for your uncharitable nature, or you do the right thing by offering them your home and food and kindness, and they still trick you into some miserable outcome.
I thought the same.
Extremely well put together. There's such an odd connection between cabbages and orphans. The Mind Unveiled channel has hours of deep dives into this. But this was a really great short.. MORE PLEASE!
This captured the feel of a real folk tale remarkably well. More horror needs this kind of rawness.
Mabel is beautiful and I must say, it’s nice to see an all black cast for a change.
Love the biblical themes, and the lighting was spectacular!!
Great use of lighting!
They smokin' the devils lettuce😉😉.
"May I partake in your love?"
"Nope. Thou shall not covet, gentle stranger. Thou shall not covet-period."
Beware of wolves in sheep's clothing; serve 'em their own 🥣and send 'em on their way.
I enjoyed the short!
Morbidly, wicked, terrifying love story. I loved it, almost Twilight Zone or early Creep. Keep up the great work.
Thank you so much! Loved Creepshow growing up, so that comp means a lot 🤎
This film was insane to watch! Everyone did so well in the production! You should be proud fr!
This was an amazing film. Just beautifully done by all those involved on this project. This reminds me of all the little stories my great-grandmother used to tell me when I was a child down south. Love this!
This is so so heartening to hear, and exactly the tone we were going for - reminiscent of the scarier fairytales our families would raise us on as kids. thank you for your kind words!
He was going to support their farm on a 12 cabbage harvest? Must be some miracle veggies.
replace 12 cabbages with 12 hectares so you can get the point
Mnh-mnh you better not name your baby Isaac if the husband is Abraham
I thought the same thing as soon as she called the baby Isaac. I was like oh no😮
@@PowerPuffGurl86 why
This was SO well done! From the writing to the Actors!! I loved it!! ❤
Nah. Screw that. 😂
Ain't letting nobody in my house at night like that
"More tears are shed over answered prayers than unanswered ones", attributed to Saint Thérèse Loved this! Great job.
Lyrical and creepy. Beautifully filmed and brilliantly acted. Great twist at the end. BRAVO!
Fabulous story. Awesome actors.
Why did the witch doctor cross the road?
He's got friends on the other side.
c/ He's got friends on the other side~ c/
that was great! The actors were the best they should be on the big screen. How did you make it rain? Did the “rain man do it”?
Haha thank you!
Our own “rain man” aka production designer Luke Cahill made a rain machine from scratch using PVC Pipe, a handful of sprinkler heads, and an IBC tote that we used throughout production - it felt just as miraculous as it looks when it worked ☔️☔️☔️
I liked this short horror film, can't wait for the next to come out!😄
AMAZING! Seriously gave me chills.
Very well shot. Editing and great atmosphere throughout. Was he crazy and its like a folie au deux, spelling is bad but yeah, both nuts or was there a combo happening there at the end orwhats up!!
The storytelling efficiency here is just masterful
Thank you Jesse! That means a lot ❤
They have a real life cabbage patch kid
My only complaint.... This wasn't a feature length
This was amazing. The word that comes to mind.. poetic. Odd word for a horror film but poetic was my first thought.
Thank you so much, that’s so nice to hear!
My grandmother always taught me that the devil knows scripture and is in the pulpit every Sunday. Be very weary of those whom you let into your heart as well as your home. Never forget the Jones Town Massacre.
You're grandmother was right because the devil was once an angel
This was so good it gave me CHILLS. I'll definitely be sharing this.
Awesome little short, I'm a horror fan have been for years I don't like zombie or Dracula movies thou, I love sci-fi, paranormal ghost themes an of course I like dark little western movies with a bit of horror thrown in, I hope you produce more contact 😊 well done!!
This was really scary and I enjoyed every minute of it! Thanks so much for this.
Lots of love from india ❤ really this is masterpiece
Great film. Western horror is very underrated, it’s cool seeing people explore the genre
This is without doubt the best Short Horror film I have ever seen! Thank you to all involved in its success.
You are amazingly gifted, enjoyed this 💯
❤️🔥❤️🔥❤️🔥❤️🔥cast performances were amazing great**** the lighting and sound on the money**** enjoyed this short🥰
Hooooooly crap what a wonderful short!!!
No good deed goes unpunished it seems! 🤔
Never trust cabbage patch kids 😂😂 great short❤
As soon as I saw the title, I immediately thought of the cabbage salesman from Avatar: The Last Airbender. 😂
Such a good show and such a good man
Wow that opening shot is perfect!
Me watching this while eating Cabbage 🥬
Good grief! So was I. Why did I put myself in such danger?
How are all my awesome beautiful amazing fellow horror fans doing??
@@RahilPelichev outstanding glad you are doing good. It is great to speak to someone from Bulgaria. I am from Texas USA
@@RahilPelichev thank you!!
@@Lord_Taron_Texas Hey Bud, Remember Me?
@@user-jd5no5ij6t I believe so I hadn't made a comment about asking people how they were doing I think you said something like you were having the best few days or best week you've had in a while and if I remember right can you sing me like a virtual hug or something after I commented back to you I believe I'm thinking of you is the right person from that??
@@Lord_Taron_Texas Yep That’s Me
This is top tier. Without a doubt one of the best short works I've seen on CZcams. Thank you.
Wow, thank you!
Great job! Everyone! I really enjoyed your film.
NOW THAT WAS GOOD!!!!
Voodoo's a Hell of a Drug....
Great horror short! Cinema-worthy!
💚💚 thank you for the kind words!
Great job, even when things were looking up, it had a pall hanging over it. But I feel as if I missed something. The stranger asks if he can partake in their love, and it looks as if he's groping Mabel under the table....did her allowing that lead to the Monkey Paw type deal?
Creepy and well done! The stranger's voice sounds like Candyman! Eloquent and well-spoken, but subtly sinister!
Love your short films
This was absolutely terrifying and so well done
Undoubtedly its wonderful short that teach us not to harvest cabbage in middle of desert, try selling chicken, it always works
Something about it reminds me of: THEM. I love it ❤
Brilliant 🎉
thank you for sharing
really cool, I would have lied to him and sent him up the road to somebody else.
smart move
This was great!!! Loved it!
I find myself waking up many times throughout the night thinking of all the things I have to get done the next day.
Candymans uncle
Did cabbage patch kids come to anybody else's mind?😮 It's kind of like a horror version. I love it
Bravo! This was AMAZING!
This was first rate!
Interesting and new....but does anyone remember the youtube channel dude Fred who also made movies on Nickelodeon? Cause whenever I see cabbages I have to yell.......CABBAGES!!!!!
Love the movie, thanks for making it. 🎉
I'm dark, but that dude was almost invisible.
Sorry I'm not letting anyone in my house who talks like that Hell NO!!!!
Very good story. ❤❤
My cabbages!
Did anyone else scream when she said “let us pray.” Because the film is called cabbage, ya know like “lettuce pray.” 😅😭😭
He could have paid something .if it wasn’t nothing but $50 every 2 weeks I’m sure she would have gave him more time . Glad there was no annoymosity at the end
If only she listened
So that was a ... cabbage patch kid
Wanted motherhood at any cost. Meanwhile, struggling to feed herself. Claimed to be a woman of faith- yet made a deal with the devil. If your creator -doesn't bless your body to be able to breed, it's for a reason. It knows your true heart. Respectfully.
As someone who dealt with infertility for many years, STFU. Respectfully.
@@arualblues_zero i understand you're hurt. Motherhood ain't all it's cracked up to be. They play in food & waste supplies. Destroy pretty household decorations "yet look in the magazine & have wishful thinking". Mess with all of your stuff. Lie. & still blame you, for all you can't afford to do. The kids stay with you, even if you think you mated correctly. Did i mention; the kids are mean to mother; cause she has to love them no matter what?
Your animation cartoons- shows yo mindset "a woman of color, -enjoying pretty things/scenes, with a white man). Did you get him in real life or is it still wishful thinking? I refuse to go to your many other social media accounts- to pick u apart. You could have kept scrolling. I was respectful & pointed out the obvious, or my opinion. Anything that comes from the devil is bound to bring suffering. She gave up her husband- for a baby; that was the spawn of satan..& was left with no one but self & regret. Ma'am stop playing with me. Respectfully or not.
❤ I LOVE ALTER ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
well there is a cabbage patch kid no one wants.
Omg that was good!
Bravo!!
Does the baby's cries trigger the rain?
Hi Daniel!
Yes! (that was the intended goal at least: in order for them to have rain, the baby would need to cry)
So sad race has to be compared to whether this was good horror no matter what race there is good and bad horror and this was a Good short. By the way they were not slaves such small minds can’t see what’s right in front of their face but I digress…
Who said anything about race tho? Your comment is the only one I’ve seen mentioning race….
LOVE THE BLACK ACTRESS AND ACTORs
Dope 🔥
I'm surpised Caleco hasn't sued. They sued Topps over Garbage Pail Kids.
Great video. He looks green.
My Cabbages!
Truly
a
nightmare.

OMG 😮 ❤
At first i thought the wife broke her vows, for her wish or desire to become true. I'm confused
Why no explanations??????
As a Christian great Bible verse at the beginning
❤❤......
Admin can i use your all video for dubbing in hindi in my way i will pay 20% of my revenue😊?
