Here are the criteria for entries:

Short Films

  • The year of production must be 2023 or 2024
  • Maximum length: 15 minutes
  • Must be of professional quality
  • The film must be broadly recognisable as a ‘fantastic’ film – that is, horror, fantasy or sci-fi
  • Any language is welcome, but if your film is not in English, it must include English subtitles.

Feature Films

  • Must be pre-release at the time of the festival (i.e. not on general cinematic, DVD or VOD release in the UK)
  • The year of production must be 2023 or 2024
  • Minimum length: 60 minutes
  • Must be of professional quality
  • While their definition of horror is broad, nonetheless the film must be recognisably a ‘horror’ film (which encompasses anything from supernatural, psychological terror, gore, murder etc). Documentaries are also accepted.
  • Any language is welcome, but if your film is not in English, it must include English subtitles.

They screen films from all over the world and as always they’re keen to receive films that reflect the diversity of the genre and the people who make and love it.
