An isolated young woman uses her vibrator compulsively — until it starts deforming her body in disturbing ways. To regain control and change the way she masturbates, she goes on a journey through a lurid underground of corporate neurologists and orgasm gurus, none of whom seem to have her best interests in mind. Ultimately, there’s little she can do to withstand her vibrator’s eerie influence.

AWARDS & RECOGNITION
PRAISE FOR VIBRATOR GIRL
“A not-so-sexy reboot of the fantasy genre with a raw message at its core, Vibrator Girl uses phantasmagorical means to speak to any woman left numb, misshapen, or broken in the pursuit of pleasure.” Staff, NOWNESS
​
“Female sexual sci-fi done right.” Amy Scott (Director, Hal, Sheryl)
​
"The film is much more than a fable about female sexual pleasure." Victoria Hope, Amelie Magazine
​
“Buzzy little 13-minute ride.” Shelli Nicole, Autostraddle
​
“Vibrator Girl cleverly uses a titillating title and subject matter to subvert expectations and deliver a shockingly unsexy and poignant reflection of real-life horror.” Stephanie Malone, Morbidly Beautiful
