Inizio del Festival: 31 ottobre 2025      Festival si chiude: 02 novembre 2025

El Grito is the first and only fantasy an horror film festival in Venezuela.

This event seeks to celebrate fear and showcase the narrative visions of both emerging and established filmmakers, whose stories reveal the darkest aspects of the human condition.

Over the past seven years, it has served as a disruptive platform in the country’s periphery—the state of Táchira—where filmmakers, producers, and fantasy film enthusiasts have come together to reflect, enjoy, and learn. El Grito is part of the Latin American Alliance of Fantasy Film Festivals (FANTLATAM), the Venezuelan Film Festival and Showcase Circuit (CIFEST), and the Ibero-American Network of Film Festivals (REDIBEROFEST).

We invite feature films, short films, and music videos from around the world—spanning fantasy, horror, sci-fi, thriller, suspense, and related subgenres— in any narrative format (fiction, documentary, animation, or experimental) to participate in our 7th edition.
