A showcase of the best Action/Adventure/Fantasy/Sci-Fi/Thriller Films and Screenplays from around the world. In-person and hybrid screenings. Plus interviews for the artists.

Festival takes place every single month.

Screenplay submissions offer writers at all levels the fantastic opportunity to hear their stories read aloud using professional actors. Full feedback on all submissions as well by our team of professional screenwriters.

We have created a hybrid festival with 4 tiers to enhance your film and your festival experience. All accepted films receive all four tier options:

Tier #1 – Your film plays at a public film festival event where the audience will record their comments/reactions to your film on their camera or phone, then we edit them and send you a promotional video. No matter what you will receive a promotional video of your film of people commenting on your film.

Tier #2 (optional) – Your film plays on the Film Festival streaming service for 30 hours and invite a select industry audience to watch it. With this system, some films have already received a distribution deal, as many platforms are looking for solid feature and short documentaries. We can not guarantee anything, of course but this has been very helpful to many in the past. (see testimonials below)

Then (Tier #3) we will send you a list of questions to answer for our blog interview that will promote you and your film. Then after that (Tier #4) we will set up a podcast interview on our popular ITunes show where we will chat with you about the process of how the film was made.

Awards & Prizes

After the film festival is completed, we will also send you an audience summary detailing their thoughts and feelings on your film.

Screenplay reading videos you'll receive is an excellent source to promote your script to agents and producers.

$1000 prize value when including the audience feedback video or screening reading video, plus the blog and podcast interviews.

Rules & Terms

Please make sure to submit works that are ONLY in the Action or Adventure genres.
