New
York City Horror Film Festival
November 12-16, 2009
Each year, our mission remains the same, to celebrate independent
horror films and the hard working filmmakers who create them.
We have found that the independent film community nationwide,
be it festivals, film websites, or even some of the most popular
indie magazines, tend to shy away from these genre films,
which is really a shame.
Our philosophy is that the horror film is as important as
any genre. In fact, many great Hollywood directors started
out making low budget horror films. Some of the most influential
filmmakers in this category include: Francis Ford Coppola
(The Godfather), Oliver Stone (Platoon), Sam Raimi (Spiderman),
Peter Jackson (Lord of the Rings) and Wes Craven (Scream).
We feel that the horror film may just be more important
for the future of film making than any other genre out there!
