It depends on your genre, of course. Studio Ghibli movies are a great way to start, since they are essentially like watching a Disney movie (well, not really, but sort of) and being a movie, it's less time you need to dedicate. Personally I'd recommend Howl's Moving Castle, Spirited Away or Princess Mononoke as great ones to start with.

Here are some anime that "end" and aren't that long - no 100+ episode commitment, and they also tend to have fewer of the anime gags that can be off-putting to someone who isn't really familiar with the style. I've had experience showing several of these to non-anime fans and they've gone over pretty well.

-Death Note
-Cowboy Bebop
-Mushishi
-Kino's Journey
-Wolf's Rain
-Fullmetal Alchemist (this one gets more "anime" but at least the first series seems to be pretty easy to get into and serious and charming enough not to be off-putting to skeptics. It's also a little longer but just around 50 episodes)

I just want a random selection to give her to try! She likes western horror and drama. Also weird shit like Rocky horror picture show.

Noir isn't very short, but it isn't very long, and it has some dark/horror elements.
