Opening with a murder within the corn field… Is this Children of the Corn, or even Freddy vs. Jason? No, it’s Happy Halloween, a feature from the final day of GASP! Horror Film Festival…

07/07/2024

The second of a late-night Giallo Double-bill, Manhattan Zodiac ‘77 is an exploitive spectacle of a slasher and sleaze.

03/07/2024

The first of a late-night Giallo Double-bill, The Old Man in the Rocking Chair is a short, yet lengthy tribute to the greatest of Giallo classics.

24/06/2024

And that’s a wrap on GASP! 2024.

We are all truly so grateful to everyone who has supported the festival this year and managed to make the last three days possible as well as making it all so successful and such a joyous experience for everyone involved. We created this little festival to celebrate diversity within the horror genre and to see so many of you coming out to celebrate this with us and to hear so many kind words from so many of you, it truly means the world to us.

Big thanks to Cultplex for making GASP! a reality for us and to their team and the Grub team for keeping things running smoothly all weekend. To Arrow Video, Modern Streets Apparel, Nathan Rose Art, Third Window Films, everyone who submitted films, everyone who helped us in any way and everyone who attended - THANK YOU!

As one year of working on GASP! ends, another begins and with that being said, we will be back next year and submissions for filmmakers will reopen on FilmFreeway on August 1st. As well as this, we’ll be sending out feedback forms (all honest feedback is so helpful to us so we can continue to make GASP! bigger and better) to our customers and a link to our mailing list - if you join the mailing list, we will send you a presale link next year so you can be the first to grab tickets for GASP! 2025!

Thank you all again, we can’t wait to do it all over again next year and in the meantime, let us know your favourite films of the festival!
