Defying convention, we bring a daring audience the most intriguing genre fare from both emerging and established filmmakers.

The fest starts off at 7 pm on Thursday, October 27th, with “Homegrown Horrors”–A collection of scary short films produced by filmmakers from all over the Bay Area, followed by our Opening Night Feature, The Master Cleanse at 9 pm.
