The 2nd Annual Los Angeles International Horror Film Festival is held in June yearly! This year we'll be at the Laemmle NoHo 7 Theater in North Hollywood! LAIHFF is the most exciting horror film festival in LA. We're completely dedicated to showcasing films from the world's most talented genre filmmakers. Our program is packed with award-winning films from every corner of the earth. This started as a way of showcasing our love for all things horror, and now it's grown to be a complete celebration of horror surrounded by other incredible talented and passionate creators!
We believe in selecting and awarding films that leave an impact. Films that really stick with you beyond your viewing. LAIHFF is a must for established and up-and-coming filmmakers who have created short and feature films that audiences will not and can not forget. We believe in integrating both films from seasoned professionals, as well as passionate new filmmakers, so we can create the chance to connect both sides of the industry.
Our selection committee programs every type of film in the horror genre: from sci-fi to gore, and everything in between. 2020 is certainly a good year for horror! I mean, look at the world.
