My shortest at 44 minutes, Guinea Pig: Flower of Flesh And Blood


Reservoir cats (included in Catacomb of Creepshow) at 45 minutes


The Walkers (included in Catacomb of Creepshow) at 49 minutes


In fact, I own currently 59 movies who had a runtime of less than one hour

Edited because I've forgot to check the boxset

The movies on this set are very short, though I have no idea how short


Then these 2 are the shortest

Regarding the Thomas Edison films, well, movies back then started short and eventually got longer.  I do have the Edison Studios version of Frankenstein...from around 1910...I think it's about 13 minutes long.  And I have many shorts...The Three Stooges, Laurel & Hardy, Charley Chase, etc.  And I also have cartoons...Warner Brothers, Popeye, Woody Woodpecker, etc.  You didn't ask what the shortest "feature films" we own are.  If we went that route, I have many around the 1-hour mark, some probably down into 50-some minutes.

The shortest feature film I have is Christmas in July (Preston Sturges boxset entry) at 67 minutes! Wonderful film too. Actually it's tied with Frankenstein...

1) Dr. Horrible's Sing-Along Blog  42 min = 0:42 (NTSC)

Actually, that's my shortest too, but somehow it is listed as TV series on IMDb and I import that classification.

I use those two for my image Kathy, much better than Imageshack.

Imagefra.me for the usual picture and ImageVenue for the NSFW one

It's neither nor. It was conceived as web series in 3 parts which were released in 3 weeks IIRC. I still consider it a movie due to it's length.

My John Wayne movies are definitely the shortest most are just over 40 minutes. after that is probably some of the Disney sequel films or Lilo and Stitch.

Those John Wayne movies must either be edited or time-compressed.  I don't recall him ever making any that clocked in at under 50 minutes.

I also own the 9min long Staplerfahrer Klaus (on it's own DVD!).

The shortest feature are Revelations, a Star Wars fan film (downloaded the ISO and burned the DVD), with 47min and Forgotten Silver (52min), a mockumentary.
