Serial Taxi is a short animation by 3D artist Paolo Cogliati which sets the viewer on a thrilling ride through a dark rainy landscape where some mysterious taxi murderer is out on a killing spree.
A dazed and distracted woman gets into a taxi on this unfortunate night and goes for a ride, unknowingly in for more of a thrill than she expects. Suddenly, she gets an alert on her phone about the taxi murderer and she starts to notice suspiciously strange and foreboding signs that lead her to believe her driver could very well be that serial killer on the loose.
What ensues is a lesson in jumping to crazy conclusions and acting on violent impulses that lead to an ironic and also slightly disturbing ending to Serial Taxi.
