Knoxville Horror FIlm Fest (0)

Festival start: 24 October 2014      Festival end: 26 October 2014

Since 2009 the Knoxville Horror Film Festival is committed in bringing the best (and worst) of genre cinema to Tennessee through our annual film festival and feature screenings throughout the year. The only horror festival in Tennessee, KHFF holds its 3 day fest near Halloween every year.

On top of accepting submissions of short films from around the world, we hold a film making competition called the Grindhouse Grind-Out in which we give teams 6 days and 66 minutes to make a 3 minute Grindhouse trailer.

We're currently planning our 6th annual fest, KHFF 666 and we're looking for the best short films the genre has to offer.

PALM d'GORE (GRAND PRIZE):
SCARIEST FILM
FUNNIEST FILM

Prizes range from cash for the Grindhouse Grind-out grand prizes to awesome swag from our sponsors such as Scream Factory, Rue Morgue and others.
