Hosting the festival online guarantees genre audiences opportunity to watch as much as they want, when they want, in the comfort of their own home, and offers the ability to interact with filmmakers as much as they'd like.”

"I’m very excited to welcome everyone to the first annual Halloween Horror Fest. This online festival provides us all the opportunity to celebrate 31 days of world class horror films and the filmmakers who terrify, disgust, and disturb us.
I've been traveling to festivals around the globe for many years now, and I've seen amazing films that few people ever have the chance. But no matter how many films I can see, there are infinitely more I wish I could easily access. But even at the festivals, this is a daunting task."
"Hosting the festival online is the great equalizer, giving dedicated audiences the opportunity to watch as much as they want, when they want, in the comfort of their own home, with the ability to interact with filmmakers and notable individuals, such as yourselves, as much as they'd like. You can see all the films you heard about from great genre festivals around the world, and beyond for one low price. (Like a Netflix subscription, but much better!) If you don’t have time to watch every film, don’t worry, many of them will be available on our Streaming On Demand platform after the festival period is over."
"This year, enjoy 31 days of Horror making the Halloween season your best one yet! I hope you enjoy the festival as much as I do."
Independently Yours,
