Booger
Movie • 2023
ReportMary Dauterman's short film, WAKEY WAKEY took Fantasia by storm when it internationally premiered in the Born of Woman showcase in 2019. She's now back with her feature debut BOOGER, a dark comedy about lost cats, grief, and millennial despair. Anna's (Grace Glowicki) best friend Izzy just died, and her landlord won't stop calling about rent. As her life falls apart, she's bitten by Izzy's cat Booger and starts to get stranger every day: she's hungry for canned fish, she keeps swallowing her hair, and her predator instincts are out of control.

The MC never finds out what happened to Booger but we see him looking well at the very end. Here's hoping he upgraded to a cushy townhouse and kitty caviar.

The hand thing is a little gross but not as bad as most horror movies.

Ymmv. It ends without the MC ever finding Booger but she finally acknowledges her grief and seems ready to move on.

I think the puncture wounds from the bite might be a problem for some people since they get progressively grosser.

The MC does shots at a bar but it's the only time we see her with alcohol. It might be considered binge drinking though.

Some curse words in everyday conversation & a character flips off the camera. It's not excessive.

Not in the traditional sense but it could be triggering for someone who has issues with pica.
