SELFIE – Horror Short Film

Posted on by HorrorGhouls

An insecure teenager deletes her social media accounts and learns that what she put online will come back to haunt her.

 

Our Halloween Marathon is running (where we update with new reviews daily during October!), but we’re still having the weekly Horror Short Sundays of course. And this time we’re taking a look at Selfie. We’ve all seen them, those filter-photos that makes people look like pure nightmare fuel from the deepest uncanny valleys, and yet considered “pretty” by far too many. In this horror short, a young girl is using an app called Selfie to post filter photos of herself where she is totally unrecognizable. Fed up with this fakery, she actually makes the clever decision of deleting the app among the other Social Media apps as well. Good girl! Too bad selfie-barbie-monster doesn’t agree with her…all leading up to a surprisingly vicious ending!
