Released in 2021 and coming in at just under 11 minutes, the Vampyress was directed by James Worthington. It starts with a girl, Willow (Emily Uritz) breathing hard whilst by a sink, the tap running, she is blood spattered.
She seems to awaken and her father (Karl Barbee) has come in her room, she is on the floor. He wants her to come down for dinner but she is due to go out with friends. He insists. Downstairs there are Halloween decorations up and he hands her a plat of fried spinach. She takes one fork of it.
He doesn’t know where her mother is, if she cared she’d be there he says. He asks about school and confronts her with her absence, wanting to know what is going on. She gets a text and says she’ll have to go but when he tries to stop her she smashes her plate over his head and punches him out. She is panicking when there is a knock at the door – she assumes her friends. It is a stranger named Jenni (Ali Basalyga), she has just moved in down the street and asks to be let in…
And it is a neat little short, playing with turning and memory. The imdb page is here.
