Musician wakes to a corpse in the bathtub and an appetite she can't explain — fifteen minutes of post-It Follows female body horror is exactly the right length for the idea. Title does the work.
The title functions as its own thesis — naming the desire reframes the horror — and the post-It Follows independent-horror register Chandonnet is working in remains productive. A Shawna Shea WTF Award is exactly the right honor for it.
Vimeo's anti-bot wall blocked deep page access, but a 15-minute horror with that title and a 'WTF Award' at Shawna Shea Fest signals genre commitment. Hard to confirm craft without more, calling this cautiously curious.
