    For a first year festival, this was so much fun. Small but mighty! Chris is awesome and it's such a unique venue. Every filmmaker that made it out was there because they love indie filmmaking and horror. Great vibes all around.

    Wish I could have made ot down but Fear Fest at the Farm has some solid communication and really puts the leg work in when it comes to promoting the festival. Hope to attend next year.

    I've been attending film festivals for over 20 years, and this was one of best venues ever. Trust me: There are few things better than watching horror films at night inside a historic barn in the middle of Kentucky farm country. It was a little creepy and a whole lotta fun. Perfect vibe and atmosphere.

    Festival director Christopher Williams couldn't have been more friendly and welcoming. The films shown were consistently good, and the Q&A's afterwards were informative and entertaining. Such a memorable experience, and everyone in attendance seemed to be having a blast.

    I look forward to seeing this festival grow and prosper, and I can't wait to go back!
