Yuletide terror abound in our Opening Night Film, CHRISTMAS BLOODY CHRISTMAS, the latest feature from acclaimed genre filmmaker and Monster Fest alumni Joe Begos (VFW, BLISS, THE MIND’S EYE), where a toyshop robotic Santa malfunctions and carries out a Christmas-sacre that is destined to become a festive favourite.
Filmmaker Jason Eisener (HOBO WITH A SHOTGUN) crafts an action-packed, hilarious and gory coming-of-age sci-fi/horror hybrid in our Closing Night Film, KIDS VS. ALIENS, where an already out-of-control house party is invaded by intergalactic gatecrashers, hellbent on death and destruction.
Humans by birth have an instinct to survive but how far would you go to survive? Guillaume Nicloux‘s brutal, nihilistic and gripping LOCKDOWN TOWER will have you asking that very question as the inhabitants of a tower block faced with a mysterious void surrounding them are forced to survive by any means necessary within the complex.
