Short Film: Worth the Weight (2023)

Synopsis

A girl is on a diet. She is losing, but not very quickly. She wants to fit in that little black dress for the prom, but she’s not going to make it in time. Then she finds a mysterious package on her doorstep with a weight-loss drink inside. “Watch the pounds melt off!”

She tries it, and it works!

Commentary

Was it worth the weight?

It’s always clear what’s happening, the lighting and sound are good, and the creature is disturbing, especially as it walks through the darkness. We’re not quite clear on why this is happening, but it’s still fun to watch.
