Sleazy Pete: At less than 12 minutes long, Sleazy Pete still manages to go through 55 gallons of fake blood. That seems extraneous since Sleazy Pete is a priest who lives by the principle “Love thy neighbour” but the convenient loophole there is that the homeless aren’t neighbours to anyone so are therefore ripe for the killing. If you love B-movie gore, this one is wall-to-wall apocalyptic violence
Don’t Ever Change: Karen Hickman is newly paroled after spending her entire adulthood in 
prison for a crime she committed when she was 17. She’s in the midst of reconnecting with her biological daughter when a “fan” shows up with an inappropriate request. The productions values are great, the writing is fun; in less than 10 minutes director Don Swaynos gives us something truly satisfying…although I wouldn’t have minded even more!
The Story of 90 Coins: A man is much more serious about his relationship than his girlfriend is. As a compromise, she agrees to be wooed for 90 days. Every day he leaves her with a coin. At the end of 90 days, they’ll either have enough money for farewell drinks, or a marriage certificate. Sure it’s hella romantic but it also puts our poor heroine in the unfortunate position of having to choose between love and career. This short film is gorgeously shot, and if you’re in the mood to have your heart strings yanked upon fiercely, there are buckets of tears wept in the 9 minute running time.
The Madame In Black: A woman was burned for witchery, and centuries later, children still remember her with a game wherein the very brave call her name 3 times into a mirror. This short horror is perfectly edited for maximum tension.

Sounds like Tubularsock type films when Tubularsock is in his short attention span mood! Thanks, Jay.

It’s like short stories we’d read in a book but for the film! In some ways, shorts are great ~ Especially when we don’t have time to watch a full-length movie.

Yeah, like short stories, I really like the challenge of telling a satisfying story in a short amount of time. It really makes you hyper conscious about making every word count.

I love shorts! I think the quality of an average short I have seen has always been way higher than an average feature. I am waiting for the day they get their due.
The best part is, even if you didn’t like it, you only wasted 10-20 minutes instead of 1-2 hours.
The ones you reviewed sound awesome!
