Shitters

About This Movie

Shitters is one of those intriguing short films that really leans into its absurd premise. Picture this: a guy totally oblivious to the idea that his own waste could morph into a monstrous entity wreaking havoc in his apartment. The atmosphere is a bizarre mix of dark humor and genuine dread, which keeps you guessing where the line is drawn. The pacing feels unhurried, giving you time to stew in the discomfort of the situation. I’ve got to say, the practical effects used to bring this creature to life are pretty creative, adding a tactile quality that CGI just can't replicate. Performances are surprisingly engaging, considering the premise. It’s definitely not your run-of-the-mill horror flick. That’s what makes it stand out in the landscape of indie horror shorts.
