Festival

Festival presentation: 

The New Orleans Horror Film Festival is a festival created by horror filmmakers for horror filmmakers. As film auteurs ourselves, we appreciate and admire the blood, sweat and tears that go into making movies, especially on an independent level. It’s no small wonder and no great surprise that so many of today’s top directors got their start in “low budget horror”. With determination and imagination, these artists have created some truly memorable work that has encouraged and inspired a new generation of filmmakers. The NOHFF is committed to celebrating the craft and the art of genre filmmaking at its best. Please visit the official NOHFF website at www.neworleanshorrorfilmfestival.com. Thanks.

The New Orleans Horror Film Festival takes place on the last weekend of October, deep in the heart of the world famous French Quarter. 2011 marks the festival’s inaugural year. From the Friday night festivities (Opening Night Party, Filmmaker’s Meet-&-Greet, Special Midnight Screening), through two days of the best horror & sci-fi programs (Features & Shorts Screenings, Filmmaker Q&A’s, Panel Discussions, Special Guests), to the Sunday night events (Awards Ceremony, Closing Night Party), the NOHFF is going to be a weekend to remember. What better place to experience a horror film festival than the “most haunted city in America”? We encourage filmmakers, casts & crews, friends & family, and horror fans alike to experience New Orleans (from the food to the music to the history). And when you come to the New Orleans Horror Film Festival, be sure to stick around for Halloween on Bourbon Street (the 2nd coming of Mardi Gras).
