    What an honor to have my film, "Les Bêtes" shown here, and to be so warmly recognized! I'm so grateful for the kindness of the Phantasmagoria Team and the space they've created for indie filmmakers to share their work. Thanks for everything!

  • What a wonderful festival! I’m very honored that my film Scream a Little Dream was chosen to be part of the first Gore Fest. And that it was shown in 3-D to boot! Allan was a terrific host and it was great getting to meet other filmmakers. Can’t wait to enter the next one!
