Most of the classic Universal horror films are less than 90 minutes long and some are quite good.

Marx Brothers' Monkey Business [1931], Horse Feathers [1932], and Duck Soup [1933]. (Their other films are also good fun but these three might be the best of the bunch.)

And:
=>- Allegro Non Troppo [1976]
=>- Cloverfield [2008]
=>- Invasion of the Body Snatchers [1956]
=>- Koyaanisqatsi [1983]
=>- The Thing from Another World [1951]
=>- Tucker and Dale vs Evil [2010] Caution! Pay attention to the dialog or you will probably hate this film.
=>- The War of the Worlds [1953]

P.S. Airplane! [1980] is a lot of fun and Moon [2009] is outstanding.

^^
Let's also not forget the comedy films that starred Abbott & Costello, the majority were made
for Universal Pictures with runtimes of 90 minutes or less.

And:
Darren Aronofsky's debut film Pi which has a runtime well below 90 minutes.

You can also find it for free on You-Tube.
