Missouri and Kansas filmmakers submitted some original, creative films for the first KC CreepFest Short Horror Film Contest! Thank you to Filmmaker Bobby Thompson and Actor Jeph Scanlon for being our professional judges, and to the Avila film school students for pre-screening the contest entries.
During the award presentations at the Tivoli Cinema on Friday, October 30 at 6:45 p.m., four of our finalists will each receive a $25 gift card (from businesses like Border’s, AMC, Sally Beauty Supply), and the first place winner will receive $100 in rental equipment donated by Lights On Kansas City. The first place film will screen along with the Bonnie & Clyde vs. Dracula program that begins at 6:45.
