Shriekfest Film Festival Celebrates its 21st Anniversary September 30-October 3, 2021 at Raleigh Studios in Hollywood.

The annual Los Angeles competition will kick off with a public party September 30

The Shriekfest Film Festival, an international horror/sci-fi film and screenplay competition, has announced its annual event will take place September 30-October 3, 2021. This will be a LIVE event.  The festival begins with an opening night party on Thursday at the Historic BOARDNERS, which the public is welcome to attend. This is a red carpet event to kick off the party. Then, it will continue its tradition of screening feature length and short films Friday through Sunday at the iconic RALEIGH STUDIOS in Hollywood, and culminate with an awards presentation on Sunday night at 10PM.

Shriekfest was created in July 2001 by festival director Denise Gossett and has grown into the longest-running and one of the largest horror and sci-fi film festivals in the country. Since its inception, Shriekfest has offered upcoming writers, actors, directors, and producers a chance to have their work screened and rated by peers. Many past winners have gone on to write, produce, or star in major motion pictures.

In addition to exposure, the festival awards its participants with a number of recognitions and prizes. Submissions for narrative feature, narrative short, narrative super short, feature screenplay, and short screenplay are eligible to win awards.
