We are pleased to announce that the 3rd Annual KahBang Film Festival will be held August 5th to August 13th, 2011, as part of the KahBang: Music | Art | Film Festival, in Bangor Maine, and is now open for submission.

Last years festival highlighted some of the most entertaining musicians and filmmakers of 2010. Our music lineup boasted the insanely talented "Bad Rabbits", "Free Energy", "OKGo" and the latest hip hop sensation "B.o.B".

The KahBang Film Festival screened in competition Sundance Film Favorites, "New Low" and "One Too Many Mornings" as well as the AFI Silverdocs Grand Jury Award Winning Documentary "Wo Ai Ni Mommy". 2010 also saw the birth of our "Music Doxx" category, screening the popular Maynard James Keenan wine documentary, "Blood Into Wine".

Though we loved the classic feel of the KahBang Film Festival, we have decided to change it all up and give you a fresh, original product for 2011 and beyond.
