Wilfred

This is one of the weirdest ideas I've seen in a short film. A man goes to spend the night at his date's apartment, only to discover that her beloved dog, Wilfred, is actually a guy in a dog costume. Wilfred talks and behaves like a normal human, yet is protective of his owner just like a dog. The story is hilarious because of this setup and all the strange things the "dog" does and says. That said, I feel the film could have pushed the absurdity even further to make it even more laughable. Still, it's an interesting and entertaining short.
