2024 Short Film: Zit

What Happens

Gertrude is the office manager, and she wants a promotion. She’s prepared a paper listing her benefits and talents, and she’s ready to talk to the boss. Just as she’s finally ready, she spots a zit right in the middle of her forehead. What can she do about it? 

Commentary:

Anyone who’s ever prepared or worried over a talk with the boss knows this feeling. Gertrude just takes it a little farther than most of us. The special effects and gore are fine, but not really the main draw of this short film. It is just laugh-filled from start to end, at least for me.
