The Lighthouse International Film Festival will be screening scores of short films this year.

There will be 68 films in the narrative shorts competition, 20 in the documentary competition, and 32 Darkhouse (horror and sci-fi) shorts. Toss in two surf shorts, seven New School/Parsons Films shorts, 14 TV & Web Series competition entries, four Friends of the Festival short films and even 13 NJ High School Shorts Showcase flicks and you can see the word “scores” was no exaggeration.
