    Thank you to all the great guys at Prestige Film Festival. We felt very welcome and it was wonderful to celebrate with other film makers. Thank you for the 'Nomination' of 'We Know You're There' and for showing both films (Forgotten Enchantress Documentary was also shown on the big screen). I would recommend attending and supporting this film organization.

    The Prestige Film Festival gave my movie "Natzee Zombie Carnage" an "Honorable Mention" status, and was one of the few festivals that was nice enough to show my horror film. Thank You ever so much.

    Everything about this festival was perfect. Though I eventually couldn’t make it there to attend in person, even at the distance it felt like the whole team puts all their heart and soul into what they do - with the only objective of making filmmakers feel they are valued and taken care of. Bravo!
