WHAT FILMMAKERS ARE SAYING
"Thank you so much to Night Frights LA for an amazing three-day weekend experience. I'm honored to have won Best Director and Best Horror Short Film for "Thin Air." The organization was amazing and I was able to actually network and meet some amazing filmmakers. Thank you again!"
"The future of horror is here, and it’s at Night Frights LA! My favorite festival I’ve attended. I could not recommend this festival enough! Lots of inspiring filmmakers and the highest quality horror films."
"The heart and soul that goes into this festival is insane. They work tirelessly to make it stand out and make you feel special for being a part of it. The number one reason we went with this festival over other offers from festivals is marketing. They work hard throughout the entire year to get people in seats. Most festivals as of recent only even use their socials when it’s a few weeks away. They work so hard. Honored to be there!"
