Where film festival meets freakshow - Welcome to the sickest little horror show this side of the morgue!

On April 20th, 2024 (you already know!), Doctor Chainsaw’s Horror-a-Thon exploded onto the scene as a fully immersive, blood-splattered celebration of independent horror and the demented creators who make it! Curated by filmmaker & writer R.J. De León Vega and MC’d by the deranged midnight host Doctor Chainsaw himself, the festival showcased a lineup of groundbreaking short films from predominantly female horror filmmakers—amplifying underrepresented voices and ripping through the genre with fearless vision and style.

The Horror-a-Thon was a massacre in the best way: packed house, killer crowd, and a screening block so strong it left the audience shaken, stirred, and screaming for more. Each film was introduced by Doctor Chainsaw—a chaotic late-night horror host who delivered carnage, commentary, and just the right amount of unhinged energy to glue your eyeballs to the screen.

Born from a pure love of the horror genre, this festival exists to celebrate voice, vision, and viscera.

Following its wildly successful debut and overwhelming response, the Horror-a-Thon plans to become a recurring event, doubling down on its mission: to spotlight bold, diverse voices in horror and to give independent filmmakers the blood-soaked spotlight they deserve.

Sick films. Killer talent. No pretentious bullshit. Just pure, unfiltered horror mayhem and DIY filmmaking magic.

This isn’t just a film festival—it’s a fucking reckoning!
