This town is bewitched.

Fables of the Demons have taken deep root in the dark hearts of our followers both near and far, they come in droves to take in the horrors upon the silver screen.

Desmond District Demons is an annual independent film festival that takes place every October. We look to celebrate the dedication and passion of genre filmmakers from across the globe and especially in our locally grown talent in Michigan.

Our journey began with a shared vision among fellow filmmakers, a desire to create a platform where exceptional films could be showcased and appreciated for the artistry and dedication they embody.

Throughout our many seasons, we've been fortunate to witness the dark, twisted imaginations of filmmakers from every corner of the world to share with our audiences. Our communities shared devotion to genre cinema humbles us year after year.

Films from around the globe participate in a competition to win judged awards, as well as audience choice awards. (non-cash) We also like to bestow an award on our favorite Michigan filmmaker as well.

Michigan filmmakers submitting to the festival also have access to a special discount to encourage and help our local talent get their films on the silver screen in front of a live audience.
