What Happens

A woman finds a dress in a boutique and wants to try it on. The changing room is right there, but it also has a “do not enter” sign on it. She decides to try the dress on anyway. 

The inside of the changing room is mirrored on opposite walls, giving that fun “infinity effect” that everyone loves to pose in front of. This time, however, she might not be alone…

Commentary

There’s no dialogue here and only one character. Changing rooms are inherently creepy, especially in modern times with easily hidden cameras. It’s very clearly shot, especially the mirror effects, and it’s always very obvious what’s happening. We never find out why, but that’s part of the mystery.
