Jesus and Mary are a couple going through a rough patch in their relationship. However, they have just become parents. To shape their new life, they decide to buy a new coffee table. A decision that will change your existence. The entire film was shot over the course of 10 days. Salesman: The glass is unbreakable, so your table will last forever. Featured in Half in the Bag: Top 10 Horror Movies (2024), Part 1 (2024). Jesus and Mary start not in a manger, but in a furniture store, where an overbearing salesman works tirelessly to sell them a coffee table. The gruesome piece features figures of naked women made of “fake gold” and what the man describes as “unbreakable” glass. The new mother is a little old for motherhood, and the couple seems to be going through a rough patch in their marriage. The first ten minutes or so could be described as a comedy, but towards the middle, things take a dark turn. Jesus has to put together a coffee table and an accident causes his world to fall apart, and the final act is as well done as any I’ve ever seen. Ten days of shooting is a miracle these days, and the script is concise and intelligent. Don’t miss The Coffee Table. A solid 9/10. Don’t miss this gem.
