GRAMPS at Bite Night

 GRAMPS will show some teeth at this year’s Bite Night in Portland.

The film will screen on October 24 at Main Studio Works in Portland.

Bite Night’s mission is to make the festival circuit financially accessible to everyone. They’ve built a curated lineup of top horror shorts without the usual paywalls, using their Movie of the Month system to spotlight new talent. Their dedicated team of judges works year-round to give filmmakers the same exposure and opportunities as major festivals — without the high costs.

GRAMPS in Mutant City

GRAMPS stays busy during the Halloween season and will screen on October 19th in Fillmore, California, as part of the Happy Fright Film Festival by Mutant City Horror.

Happy Fright is more than just a film showcase; it’s a live event where horror fans come together to experience creativity through live entertainment, including stand-up comedy, a live band, a horror marketplace, and vendors with a classic arcade pop-up.

Join us at the Fillmore Town Theatre for some scary fun and entertainment.

GRAMPS back in Atlanta

Another great festival for GRAMPS this week. Our Zomedy will screen at the Atlanta Horror Film Festival on Sunday, Octber 19 at 4:30pm in the program Among the Infected Shorts #17!

The event will take place at the Limelight Theater in the Pencil Factory.

The Atlanta HorrorFest is a three-day celebration of all things horror, from jump scares and slow burns to midnight madness and twisted tales. The festival showcases the creepiest, wildest, and most entertaining horror films from around the world, spanning supernatural stories, psychological thrillers, slashers, horror comedies, and everything deliciously bizarre.

GRAMPS travels to Austrian’s Fright Night

GRAMPS is on the move and will scare the audience in Austria on October 23 during Fright Nights – the ultimate festival of fear. The festival is held at the Hollywood Megaplex PlusCity in Linz, Pasching. Gramps screens at 3 pm in Saal 11 in the “Unleash the Underground Thursday” program. Let me know if you plan to attend.

Fright Nights is consistently one of the most popular horror film festivals in Europe, and since 2006, it has awarded the coveted Silver Hand award in several categories.

So if you are in Austria, come and see our short scare on the big screen.
