This is a fairly straightforward one. It is also a very effective at establishing atmosphere. The director will be taking on a Clive Barker story as a feature and this hopefully foretells of the kind of punch that film might have.
Glad to have found this online. I saw this first in a collection and it’s one of the finest shorts I’ve ever seen. Mutative animation in the very first animated short is incredible.
To kick of the 61 Days of Halloween season here’s a very creepy short about a rather unusual birth. At the link below you can find more info, and both the film and a version replete with commentary.
This a great spoof that takes on a simple trope and exaggerates it brilliantly. It’s hilarious and effective as well. Enjoy!
Just looking at the images should give you a pretty good idea of what this is about. The short is most definitely humorous and the gore is plentiful, and effective despite its animated nature. Enjoy!

After last week, surely you all need a slight reprieve. This short, is quite so, animate, has a bit of humor to it, but also plays the “cabin in the woods” formula, very well. Enjoy!
This is a funny and off-beat horror short that is a perfect light start to 61 Days of Halloween. It feels like it could be the prelude to a series or teaser for a a feature but still works on its own. It features BAM-Award nominee Peter DaCunha and Jake Goodman, probably best known for his role on Life with Boys. Enjoy!
A subtle and sensitively rendered tale despite having “gay short film” brandished all over it on YouTube.
In honor of Madonna’s birthday I am posting one of her videos, which always had a tendency to be cinematic. Here aside from an opening montage there is also Danny Aiello playing the role of her father.
I’ve said it before, but it bears repeating: sometimes companies will commission short films, but that doesn’t be default make them cash grabs. It’s about the finished product watch Asia Argento’s short for a jewelry line and tell me there isn’t artistry to it.
