The short film format is one of the most valuable assets to our mission statement. They offer explorations of horror in concise chunks that provides not only variety, but a concentrated dose of scares, dread, or even uncomfortable laughs. Thanks to a new generation of online platforms, short films are experiencing a new life online, and we plan on collecting them here!
