Don’t know what we did to deserve the audience that show up for this festival but we’re awfully glad we did it. The generosity of all of you who’ve been a part of this year has us $700 from our fundraising goal and CFF2027 being a reality. Its lovely that so many of you seem to want us around.

Horror comedy DEMONETIZE challenges a group of social media influencers to stay the night in a haunted house and all hell breaks loose. The killer teddy bear sequence made me laugh out loud. Over-the-top performances and some genuine scares. Very fun. @chattfilmfest.org 2026. #filmsky #chattfilmfest

Co-writer/star Dina Silva is fierce af (and she can sing!) in bloody, darkly funny feminist slasher FRANKIE, MANIAC WOMAN, which takes a brutal look at fat shaming and unrealistic beauty standards. From director Pierre Tsigaridis. Seek this one out. @chattfilmfest.org 2026. #filmsky #horrorsky

Still from the movie Frankie, Maniac Woman with Dina Silva standing in a field with blood on her face, smiling, and wearing a mask on her head.

"If Sherriff’s story does not exist within the genre, it does exist outside it, enveloping horror’s tropes with a universal story of loss." Harry Sherriff's MISPER is one of the standout features at this year's @chattfilmfest.org.

Harry Sherriff's 'Misper' may only be horror-adjacent, but it deserves to be celebrated as a tender examination of what follows trauma.

"There are few things the horror genre loves more than hurt people hurting people – especially at a summer camp." I could talk for hours about Avalan Fast's CAMP and why it's a much-needed evolution beyond traumatic horror. @chattfilmfest.org is crushing it this year; what a beautiful film.

CFF is the only genre fest that kept virtual access post-pandemic AND screens out AI users. They also run as a nonprofit and could really use the financial support! There's some wonderfully mindbending stuff this year and one of their features is sitting as my film to beat for 2026.
