10 Amazing Recent Movies That Were 90 Minutes Or Less

5. Milk & Serial

And now we come to the shortest film on this list by a huge margin - the viral found footage horror sensation that is Milk & Serial. 

Produced by comedian Curry Barker for just $800, this twisted look at the darker side of social media pranksters proves that you don't need state-of-the-art equipment or huge crews to produce an entertaining movie.

Thanks to Barker's unhinged script and naturalistic performances from a largely little-known cast - including Barker himself in the lead role - this is a rare new found footage movie that actually feels like it offers a fresh take on the format.

And further to Barker's credit, because he made the film with his own dime, he wasn't obliged to deliver a conventional theatrical runtime, and so was comfortable leaving Milk & Serial running in at just 62 minutes.

To sweeten the deal even further, Barker released the film for free on YouTube, foregoing typical distribution models but immediately making a name for himself online in the process.
