Get ready for a screaming/laughing/covering-your-eyes, gore-splattered, good night this August when horror-comedy “Blood Fest” comes to cinemas across the nation.
Described by Nightmare on Film Street as “an already wild party where someone has spiked the punch,” and with Dread Central noting it “could become the party horror film of the year,” horror aficionados will want to mark their calendars for this one-night event.
In addition to the full-length feature, which premiered at SXSW 2018 and screened to raves at the Cleveland, Fantaspoa and Edinburgh International Film Festivals, attendees will also enjoy exclusive behind-the-scenes access.

As festival attendees start dying off, three teenagers (Kay, Gabriel, Batalon), more schooled in horror-film clichés than practical knowledge about neutralizing psycho killers, must band together and battle through various madmen and monstrosities to survive.
