TGIF! The Horror Of Being Emily likes to start the weekend off right by featuring one spooky short film each week. Watch late at night with the lights turned down low to maximize the scary atmosphere. Grab your popcorn and enjoy!
Since my days curating ScareLA’s screening room, I have loved watching creative films from around the world. Short films are a wonderful way to start out as a filmmaker and demonstrate a proof of concept for longer works. It is much harder than you’d think to convey a coherent story in a short amount of time! I hope you enjoy this curated selection of the best fantastic horror, science fiction, and fantasy the internet has to offer.

The Listening (Directed by David O. Perkins) had its Los Angeles premiere at Screamfest 2019. This tongue-in-cheek horror comedy was a hit with the audience and continues to make me laugh each time I see it. Anyone who has ever yelled at the screen when characters make stupid decisions in a horror movie will enjoy this fun little short.
