16 Feature Film Entries So Far

The 2008 Tabloid Witch Awards are well under way.

As of this morning, we've received 16 horror feature film entries. Entries come from the United States, United Kingdom, Italy, and Denmark.

We've also received 35 horror shorts, including live action, animation, music videos--and film trailers! (Both for real and nonexistent films.)

Shorts come from the United States, United Kingdom, Canada, and The Netherlands.

2008 looks to be our most competitive year so far. But don't let that discourage you. This is a good thing for you! The more competitive our contest, the more meaningful the award when you brag about it to producers, financiers, and distributors!

And since there's No Entry Fee, you have little to lose by trying your luck and entering.

Deadline is September 30, 2008. Your film must be in our PO Box by the end of that day.

Once again: details to enter.

2008 World Horror Con Encore Screening

The 2008 World Horror Con in Salt Lake City will host a special screening on Saturday night, March 29th, 6 pm to 2 am: The Very Best of the Tabloid Witch Awards (2004-2008).

Because we're squeezing four years into one night's screening, the emphasis will be on shorts. Only two features will screen: Dead Noon (much of whose cast & crew live in Salt Lake City, and will thus attend!) and Mole (Best Horror Feature Film for 2005).

Also at the 2008 WHC, I'll host a panel on horror film festivals, on March 27th, Thursday night (7 - 7:50 pm). Some of the Dead Noon people will be there for that as well.

This marks the Tabloid Witch coming full circle, since its first screening (for the 2004 winners) were held at the 2005 World Horror Con in New York City.
