Short Film Thread

We need a thread for legit short films instead of the typical 30 second to 2 minute YouTube clips, which belong in that other thread.

So, here it is...

"It was always the women, and above all the young ones, who were the most bigoted adherents of the Party, the swallowers of slogans, the amateur spies..." - Orwell

These have something in common, but I don't want to spoil anything. Your choice on which to start with, but I will say I think Dirty Laundry is awesome. Two big name actors in it too. Whichever one you watch, the cat is going to be out of the bag. (Although because of how stupidly people label their clips...) If you watch Truth in Journalism, stick around after the credits.

A short that was filmed for an ad, but kind of cool. 20 strangers are asked to kiss on camera.

Street Fighter: Assassin's Fist

I'm linking it this way because it's a series of shorts and this is the first in the playlist.

James Van Der Beek has become kind of a bad ass.

Templar Knights vs. Predator

Personally, I think short bow vs. plasma caster is kinda unfair, but whateverest.

The Horribly Slow Murderer with an Extremely Inefficient Weapon

Kickstarter.

I don't understand how anyone can watch the short and NOT want to see this become a full length feature. This will be my second kickstarter.

Funny, but I don't think it needs to be longer.

Yeah, I even skipped through about half of it because it was just one joke stretched over 10 minutes.

I was tempted because it was already about twice as long as it needed to be.

But then that's part of the joke, I guess.
