Filmmaker Panel
This year we received more horror films than ever before, so in turn we programmed more horror films than we ever have.
This panel examines why horror is a chosen genre with today's emerging filmmakers, with panelists who have films in this year's festival, Corey Benson Powers of Locksmith, Savanna Wrobel of Lurker, and Cassie Llanas of Lost Boys Pizza. Moderated by Michael Viers (The Shame List Picture Show).
