Submit to the "It's Only a Movie: Horror Movie Film Festival"
It's that delightfully creepy time of year! Halloween is around the corner, and with it comes the annual "It's Only a Movie" film festival.
This festival is a wonderful opportunity for you all to submit your work! Most film festivals cost big bucks to submit a film. This festival? It is free! There is no submission fee! If you think you'd like to make a horror film that is 5 minutes or less, or if you have made one in the past that you're really proud of and want to submit it, I encourage you to do so! People from all around the state of Utah, of all ages (an 8 year old submitted one year (her film was brilliant), and people all the way into their 60s and older have had their work seen). Their are prizes, and the event is one of my favorite of the year. It is a truly wonderful fest!
Here is the intro film from last year - if gives you a good taste of the kind of joyfulness this festival is all about. If you love horror, horror-comedy, and Halloween, this festival is for you!
Even if you don't submit a film, it is still a joy to attend, and well worth every penny of the small admission price of a mere five bucks. Hope to see you there!
Here is the festival's purpose and mission:
“It's Only a Movie” Short Horror Film Festival is a celebration of local artists, filmmakers, and Halloween. The two hour event is an audience choice competition of short horror films (5-minutes or less). 1st, 2nd, and 3rd place winners receive cash prizes ($300, $200, $100) and a trophy, custom designed and sculpted by local artist Emily Jacobson. There is also a prize for best costume.
The event was founded by Utah filmmakers Vanessa and Joseph Winter to provide local filmmakers with a chance to experience their work in a movie theater with an enthusiastic audience and to provide unusual, fun, and creative content to filmgoers.
Join us on October 29th for the funnest Halloween party of the year!
