Fun Size Horror

Fun Size Horror is a collective of filmmakers, led by Zeke Pinheiro, Mali Elfman, and Michael May.[1] The collective's purpose is to create short films that will "explore horror from every angle."[2][3]

This article is about the short horror film collective. For the 2012 comedy film, see Fun Size.

Pinheiro first came up with the idea after realizing that he knew several filmmakers that wanted to "create their own thing and all love horror, but were never given a platform".[4] The collective's initial goal was to create thirty-one horror films by Halloween 2015, but has since expanded to include the creation of additional short horror films.[5] In March 2016 the collective launched an Indiegogo crowdsourcing campaign, with the goal to use the funding to change the collective and website's infrastructure and produce more content.[6][7] To date two volumes of the shorts have been released for live-streaming through online outlets such as Amazon and Hulu.[8] Shorts have been directed by a wide range of directors and have starred actors such as Keir Gilchrist.[9]

Dread Central rated the first thirty-one shorts favorably, as they felt that the amount of offerings would help ensure that viewers would have a short that they enjoyed.[10]
