2017 - The 2nd coming!


* The original site with detailed descriptions was lost in the great 2018 Server update by HostGator where they (not so) gracefully locked me out of my own site for weeks with helpdesk being totally useless just before the 2018 festival lineup release. That said, seeing as HostGator couldn't grant us access to our existing site after multiple chats and calls with their "help"desk, I had to fully remove the site and start from scratch. They did refund me a whopping $9.99 for the inconvenience, so kudos to the HostGator "help"desk for a job well botched!

You can see parts of the old site' 2017 film listings on archive.org's Wayback Machine: HERE

The Spring of Horror and Fantasy is upon us!
