best films under 90 mins

inspired by a classic @shrewbie post - what are your fav films under 90 mins long?

I love a sprawling epic as much as the next person, but very little makes me as happy as seeing “run time: 83 minutes” on something I was considering watching

Host - 50 mins and on iplayer.

Brilliant film as well.

No idea how long the films I like go on for and I’m not prepared to look but I reckon Toy Story is probably under 90 minutes so I’ll say Toy Story.

For such a stickler in your top 3 threads you have a blatant disregard for the format of my threads!

Though 81 mins, so you get away with it

This time

I’ve just looked up a few and they’re nearly all 90-100 mins

Horror is obviously pretty good for this - The Fog, Videodrome, The Wicker Man, Evil Dead II, Texas Chainsaw Massacre, [Rec], Child’s Play…

Great film - watched this three times, which I almost certainly would not have done had it been twice as long…

Wouldn’t have guessed for Wicker Man! Feels bigger than that

Repeating myself - Run Lola Run

80 mins of pure action and banging techno soundtrack, sprinting to the finish - literally and metaphorically. Perfection

Nic Cage certainly does do a lot with the limited screen time!
