'Transfigure (2021)' is a short horror film about a young woman whose efforts to alter her appearance in photoshop have much more tangible results than expected. It reminds me of the single-concept shorts that David F. Sandberg makes on his YouTube channel, with its almost 'silent movie' storytelling and singular focus on its central concept. The premise really is the meat and potatoes of the piece; there's little else going on here, beyond perhaps the satisfying special effects and the consistent sense of atmosphere. The piece has a hint of social commentary underpinning it and it doesn't waste a single moment of its slim runtime. It's really solid for what it is.
