Feature Film Review: The Cupcake Chronicles Vol. 2: The Cupcake Shop Ghost

Is the cupcake shop haunted? Or are those strange noises coming from the stomachs of hungry customers? Either way, everyone ends up satisfied.

Review by Andie Kay:

Who ya gonna call? Ghostbusters!


This over the top comedy was a slow burn parody of the ghost hunting shows but it takes place in a quaint cupcake shop. A place you’d never expect to be haunted, which happens to be a cool twist to the story. A story that was written quite well and had a lot of heart.

The cinematography in this was absolutely stunning. The lighting and coloring of this nine act short film was a feast for your eyes. Plus you had some creative camera angles that when you are shooting in one location are a must to keep the audience engaged. All of the sound was incredibly well done too. I was a bit disappointed that no one on the crew was mentioned, not even the director or writer. Maybe it was a ghost writer? I’m honestly trying to stop myself from making a joke about a “skeleton crew”. Oops, I guess I just did.

In all seriousness, I would have loved to compliment the Director of Photography, Camera Operator, Writer, etc but all I have is FDGT Productions. So…big props to the crew of FDGT.

I also have to mention Corbyn Sprayberry, she absolutely nailed this role and her performance was wonderful as the angel. She was funny but still organic and relatable. The musical additions from Cody Martin, Lost Ghosts, Solitude Smiling and Amanda Welch were perfect and really added to the film.
