Heebie Jeebies (2021)
Slightly spooky shorts! Heebie Jeebies has been a Festival favorite at NYICFF for many a (full!) moon, but this year we’re thrilled to have inspired a short film named after us, or at least we’ll take the spooky credit for it! Find what all the frightful fun is about it when five girls realize the ghost stories they trade around a campfire may make them jump in more ways than one in A Night in Camp Heebie Jeebie. Kids and kittens can join in on some Hitchcock-style suspense in the caterwauling, darkly humorous peeping tomcat tale The Scream. If you haven’t gotten your fill of creepy felines, follow along for a cliffhanger and see who wins the dark battle in Cats vs. Progress.
