DRAGON

About This Movie

So, 'Dragon' is this really unique animated short from '99 that dives into some pretty heavy stuff. You've got this weird scenario where a fast food manager, who's drawn to look like an ugly monster, is harassing a young girl working there. It's unsettling, but it takes a wild turn when the girl gets super-sized in her rage. The animation has this gritty feel, and the pacing is quick, keeping you on edge. Definitely an unconventional mix of fantasy and social commentary, which is rare for animation in that era. The practical effects, while not the focus, add a certain rawness to the transformation scenes. It's not what you'd expect, and that’s what makes it distinct.
