Frightfilm 2026

We like to think eight is great.  So how about joining us for "Frightfilm 2026"?  This is our eighth year of scaring our audience.

If you're a returning producer and team, welcome back!  You know the drill.  Click the registration link right here and away you go!  We're looking forward to seeing your team name.

If you've thought you've got what it takes to create a short horror film, read on my friend.

Frightfilm will give you 60 days to write, shoot and edit a 13 minute or less horror film.  Oh yeah we're going to give you three criteria you'll need to include. Hah!  After you've submitted the film, we'll have our professional judges review it for a variety of crafts.  Then we'll premiere your film to an audience of your peers, family and friends and present the Skelly award to the winners in 17 categories.  

You in?  Great! Click here to review the rules  then come back and register your team right HERE

We'd love to see the fun you have, so remember to take lots of behind the scenes images and videos while you create your master work.

Thanks to all of you. We applaud you and all the hard work you and your team will be doing as you create your original short horror film.

You're keeping filmmaking alive by scaring us to death.
