The L.A. Screamfest is a first class horror film festival. The films, features and shorts, are a great combination of the familiar and the obscure, the bizarre and the twisted. It's a must for all horror fans and filmmakers. And I'm not just saying that because my film won a coveted crystal skull award. - 2002 Best Animated Film Winner
Screamfest LA was... a scream! Rachel and the rest of the gang put on a terrific festival, featuring great and unique horror films, and they really treat the filmmaker's right. Screamfest got my movie in the paper, set up interviews with loads of press, and even arranged a radio interview with a local station. I actually felt scary! The screening of Exorcist with William Friedkin was one of the coolest screenings I've been to. Screamfest makes the filmmakers totally accessible, including Mr. Friedkin, with whom I chatted after his screening.
SCREAMFEST is a blast! A great time for horror fans and filmmakers. Grab your popcorn and your barf bag and get ready to scream! Screamfest is one of those rare festivals in Hollywood where filmmakers and fans come together to celebrate the gross not the weekend gross. You don't want miss a second of Screamfest; even if you watch it with your eyes closed.
Screamfest is one of the greatest contributors to the horror film industry. Rachel Belofsky's unrelenting dedication has created an astounding platform to showcase and launch emerging talented directors and writers in the horror genre. It's classy, it's bloody and a helluva a good time!
Screamfest is a great place to discover some of the most original voices in the horror genre. Many of the films are hard to find gems that often get overlooked at the other festivals around the world.
Some people live in fear, while others live to make films about it I prefer the latter group;
the slightly tortured, delightfully twisted, and maniacally brilliant folk. At Screamfest, I have the opportunity to meet them all. What a treat!
Screamfest features the best of young, innovative and up-and-coming artists in the cinema of fantasy and horror. It scares me, and I'm Wes Craven! Check it out!
I love Screamfest. It is a pleasure to see so many genre fans getting a chance to work in the area they love.
Screamfest LA consistently showcases some of the best new talent horror has to offer.
