Trailer for Dear Beautiful from Quiet Earth on Vimeo.

Last year the animated horror short Dear Beautiful hit the world with high acclaim. Here was the potential of horror in animation - full of tension and grit and truly entertaining. And now the film’s creator Roland Becerra is in the works to turn the short into a full-length feature animated film, as reported by Quiet Earth.

The feature will expand the story as such: “The sudden appearance of exotic flowers in New Haven spawns an unprecedented epidemic rumored to be the result of a botched experiment by cosmetics giant, V-Zone. Paul and Lauren, a married couple, are caught between the catastrophe and their own troubled relationship when Lauren encounters one of the flowers and becomes infected. As her symptoms worsen, Paul’s denial of Lauren’s illness puts the couple in grave danger as the city is overrun with infected people, media frenzy, National Guard, protesters and a panicked populace. Struggling to maintain a normal daily life, Paul engages in a battle of wills with his best friend and business partner, Roger, as Paul tries to deny his wife’s condition and Roger tries to take matters into his own hands. As the epidemic reaches a climax, Paul must confront the reality of his situation as well as the monster his friend has become.”

Not much else is being said about the film or about the release date, but I highly recommend that you check out the short film to get a taste of what’s to come.
