The Bloody Peach Film Festival will provide a forum where film makers can display their work.

We will focus on short horror and sci-fi films, for filmmakers of all backgrounds. We recognize that hard work in the horror genre often goes unnoticed, which is why we support a diverse spectrum of divergent talent, from filmmakers to VFX experts, SFX and musical composers. Unlike other film festivals, we don’t pick our prodigies based on politics!

Your submission to the festival will be eligible for various awards and acknowledgements.

The Bloody Peach Film Festival will be held from October 11th, 2024 through October 13th, 2024 in Atlanta Georgia.
