You scream! I scream! The 6ix screams!

Toronto wants to get scared - and not in the most-homicide-in-recent-years type of way. Our audience is looking forward to forgetting a bit of reality by watching your horror short films this coming October!

Scare us! Show us what you got! Show us THE HORROR!

We are screening all official selections on October 22 at 2469 Dundas St. West, Toronto, Canada.

DONT STOP TIL THE 6IX SCREAMS!!!

    It has been a great experience. A brilliant festival, which has given us a very top prize. A festival that by theme, fits very well with our short film "Lobisome".
    Many thanks to the entire organization.
