Viewing Notes

kinda like remaking SOCIETY into a Very Short Film using stuffed nylon socks. Seriously.

oh I just saw this description on the Horror DNA website: “A quadriplegic man and a seamstress navigate corridors where limbs and faces push through walls, sometimes grotesque, sometimes exquisite. Stop-motion animation and textured fabric effects recall the body horror of Society or The Substance, but with grace and poetry those films don’t aim for.”

hahahaha
