The modern age of digital filmmaking has flooded the market with tons
of films, one seemingly indistinguishable from the next. The depth and
breadth of horror fandom, combined with the rapid growth of independent
filmmaking, have led to an explosion in indie films dealing with the
terrifying, macabre, gory, and bizarre.

film’s worth. No matter if it’s feature-length or shortform, a slasher
or a ghost story, a zombie flick or a horror comedy, a suspenseful
thriller or a horror documentary, all films in this exciting and growing
genre are welcome. Our staff and judges come from across the local
horror community, and with their discerning eyes can truly decide what
should remain buried and what should be unearthed.
