the skelly award
A Short Film Competition that is all about Scaring your Audience
Whether your are a working professional or a young beginner, make a short (13 minutes or less) horror film and scare the pants off your compettion.
You will have enough time. This is not a weekend production. Filmmaking begins August 13th and ends October 13th.
You will have 2 months to write, produce and edit your scary film. That is time enough to create an award winning film (read video) that could start you on the way to becoming the next Tobe Hooper or Wes Craven.
Join us from 2pm to 7pm for the Premiere of all the Frightfilm movies at the Woodward Theater on Sunday October 27th. In addition to the premieres we'll have give-a-ways, awards and a prize for the best halloween costume. Come dressed for the holiday and we'll scare you...to death

Fright Film Competition Rules
The goal of this competition is to make just one type of film, SCARY!
All submitted films must fit in that genre. Mixed genres (Horror/scary, Horror/comedy, Scary SCI-FI, etc) will be accepted. Films that do not fit in the scary genre will be disqualified from all awards, but will be shown at the screening event.
