If you want your horror
film screened at the Wreak Havoc Horror Film Festival, it should be
fast paced, not sluggish or dull.
"The biggest mistake
of filmmakers is that their films are boring," said Wreak Havoc
HFF director Dan Sellers. "Many of these films are slow paced,
don't have a strong point of view, and lack entertainment value. Our
award winning films are enjoyable.
They're fun to watch."
Wreak Havoc is currently
accepting films for its third edition, to screen this September in
Greensboro, North Carolina's Carolina Theater. Its first edition had
been in Wadesboro, NC. "Where they filmed Evil Dead 2,"
says Sellers.
Wreak Havoc has many award
categories, including Best Picture, Best Director, Best Actor, Best
Actress, Best Special FX, and Best North Carolina Film.
