Legitimacy ScoreOverview
Skyline Scares Short Attention Span is a one-minute short-film competition held as part of the Skyline Scares horror weekend at the Skyline Drive-In in Shelbyville, Indiana. It is notable for pairing a dusk-to-dawn horror event with a highly constrained short-form contest that welcomes narrative, fake-trailer, music video, and experimental entries across horror-adjacent genres, making it a niche showcase within regional genre-festival programming. Its significance lies in providing a playful, accessible platform for ultra-short genre filmmaking alongside a broader Midwest horror festival context.
