Not Today

About This Movie

So, 'Not Today' is this quirky little horror-comedy short that plays off the whole VHS tape trope, kind of like Nakata’s 'RINGU' but with a drag twist. You’ve got these two drag queens who are grappling with the death of their 'Drag Mother,' which is both heavy and yet playfully absurd. The pacing is interesting—there’s this blend of heartfelt moments and genuinely creepy scenes that makes it stand out. And those practical effects? Pretty clever for a short. The performances are undeniably engaging, especially how the queens react when the terrifying figure emerges. It’s that mix of horror and humor that feels refreshing, and it really makes you think about grief in a way that’s both darkly funny and poignant.
