Stigma (Estigma)
DIRECTOR:
David Velduque
WRITER:
David Velduque & Marco Laborda
RELEASE YEAR:
2018
It’s Friday night, the doorbell rings and Alex opens the door to his worst fear – a casual hook-up who has only one thing on his mind. They head straight for the bedroom, but they are not alone. Something else is in there with them. Something terrible.
This terrifying short film harks back to the body horror movies of David Cronenberg, not only as a grisly shocker but as an allegory for contemporary concerns.
