There have been a plethora of Horror film festivals popping up over the last 6 or 7 years, but standing alone atop them all is the Telluride Horror Show in Telluride, Colorado. The festival has quickly become the premiere destination for the very finest independent horror films that the genre has to offer. The lineup announcements themselves have become an annual “event”, and now is your chance to submit your film to the 2016 Telluride Horror Show to be included.

I’ve had the pleasure of meeting some extremely talented filmmakers in the last 14 months or so, and I encourage you all to submit your 2016 titles to the THS. Doing so now will net you an incredibly attractive Early Bird rate of $30 per short and $40 per feature. I don’t have to tell you how awesome that is.

As for horror fans – this is something you want to plan a trip for. Information on 3 day passes will be available in the near future, and we’ll have the details for you right here at Modern Horrors when the time comes. So stay tuned, weirdos.

October 14-16, 2016 will mark the 7th Telluride Horror Show, a 3-day festival celebrating independent genre film in picturesque Telluride, Colorado.
