As part of Asylumfest, we are excited to announce our inaugural Mayday Hills Short Horror Film Competition (the ‘Mayday Awards’).

​

To open Asylumfest with a bang, we're screening some short horror films from around the world, screened in the very haunted Bijou Theatre Friday night. Do you dare?

​

We are hoping to help new voices to be seen in film, the way we have done for writers for close to a decade with Cohesion Press, our small-press publishing house that punches well above its weight in terms of connections and networking.

​

AUDIENCE TICKETS - $25 each pre-booked, $30 on the night.

​
