FANtastic Horror Film Festival has recently released its film selection list for 2014.
Check out the video interview below from Dawna Lee Heising of MoreHorror In Hollywood as well as the graphic showing screening times.
From The Press Release:
The FANtastic Horror Film Festival (FHFF) will be holding its inaugural event during Halloween Weekend, as part of the Annual Gaslamp Halloween Celebration in San Diego.
Billed as the Premiere Horror Festival in San Diego, the event will showcase over 30 independent full-length horror films and shorts over a three-day period, October 31st, and November 1st and 2nd. All films showcased are billed as premieres, from World Premieres to local premieres. All films showcased have never been seen in San Diego.
Many luminaries from the indie horror community will be on hand to meet their FANS; prominent actors and actresses, directors and producers as well. The Festival starts with a gala Kick-Off Party on Spirit Night, October 30th, on the Rooftop Poolside Lounge at the fabulous Westgate Hotel in the heart of the Gaslamp Quarter. Jim Dolore and the Cult of Light will be performing.
The screenings will take place at the Premiere Festival Theater in San Diego, the AMC Reading 15 Theater on 5th street in the Gaslamp Quarter of the city. Known for hosting any of the city’s film festivals, the AMC Reading knows how to put on a great festival. Horror films of all genres will be presented, including gore, thriller, psychological, comedy, and even animation.
FANS are also invited to participate. FAN voting will help decide who will walk away with awards. In a departure from most indie awards, the FHFF Awards Banquet will have awards for both Oscar® style categories, such as Best Actor and Best Film, as well as Horror Genre Specific awards, like Scariest Death and most Gore. FANS are invited to vote online their Facebook page, listed below.
Co-Founder Mike Thomas stated: “There are so many other options for your Halloween entertainment. There are marathons a-plenty and special viewings of old classics. BUT, if you want a NEW horror experience, the opportunity to see films, brand-spanking-new horror, red-hot off the shelf, then the FANtastic Horror Film Festival is your only option for the freshest horror in the city. Plus our other activities makes FHFF the total package. New Horror Films, AND an Awards Banquet – why would you want to spend Halloween weekend any other place?”
The FANtastic Horror Film Festival will take place Halloween Weekend, October 30 and 31, November 1 and 2, at the AMC Reading Gaslamp Theater, 701 5th Ave, San Diego, CA 92101 with social events being held at the Westgate Hotel, 1055 Second Avenue, San Diego, CA 92101.
Tickets are now on sale on our website, and a limited number of rooms are available at the Westgate. There are also opportunities for volunteers to help during the Festival.
