RI International Horror Film Fest on The Rhode Show


 

 

 

The FLICKERS: RI International Horror Film Festival is Proud to Bring You Another Warped Year of Fear, Malice, Murder and Mayhem...

 

PROVIDENCE, RI. This October 17-20th, 2013, the FLICKERS: RI International Horror Film Festival will screen some of the world's greatest independent fright films. Films presented will be from across the globe and represent a broad range of cinematic styles and approaches to the genre. Our program director is Shawn Quirk.

The
FLICKERS: RI International Horror Film Festival is an eerie-sistable salute to an often overlooked genre that will include numerous world premieres of shorts and features including the best of films submitted in competition from all over the globe. We guarantee that you will not see anything like them anywhere else. Plus, many of the filmmakers will be in attendance, so you'll have a chance to network, ask questions and maybe even audition for their next film.

 

To add to the fun, the Festival, much like a witch's brew, will consist of various ingredients such as an H.P. Lovecraft Walking Tour, special free screenings, a Saturday night double bill with a special presentation, awards for Best Feature and Best Short and much more.

 

2013 --our 14th year will be our best year ever!

 


"The Barrens"

It's known as the Jersey Devil, the winged beast spawned 400 years ago by Satan himself. Some say this creature still inhabits the dense pine forests of southern New Jersey, where Richard Vineyard (Stephen Moyer) takes his family for a rustic weekend camping trip. As the Vineyard family ventures further into the woods in search of the perfect campsite, Richard teeters on the edge of sanity. Welcome to a new kind of horror that lives - and kills - in a place called The Barrens.

 

 

DATE NIGHT OF HORROR AT THE PAFF

In true horror-style, the Festival will be “slashing” its Saturday-night prices when it presents a date night of terror. Details to come.

 

College students, members of the military and seniors (over age 65) with valid IDs receive half-price admission of $5 per person/$7.00 per couple for the evening of horrors.

 

The 'weekend of frights' will occur at the hauntingly historic The Vets, the Bell Street Chapel Theatre, the Paff Theatre at URI Providence, Fort Adams State Park in Newport, the Providence Public Library, the Jamestown Arts Center, The University of Rhode Island in KIngston and Roger Williams University in Bristol. Admission is $10.00 per person for all shows at the Bell, Paff and the JAC. Discount passes are also available.

Tickets for these events plus festival six-packs will be available on line. Naturally, tickets will be available at the door before each screening.
