What Body Melt is
Autumn in Homesville. Lawn sprinklers hiss over trimmed hedges. A coffee mug sits steaming on a porch railing. Neighbors vanish one by one, their bodies bloating, leaking, collapsing after swallowing pills touted as health boosters. Like a Cronenberg sitcom directed by a punk-rock Todd Solondz.
