Forget so-called 'film festivals' that show movies on a tiny screen in a cheesy hotel conference room. Dark Carnival is a week-long celebration of horror, featuring art exhibits, live entertainment, merchandise vendors, special guests and more. But most of all, we're all about the movies! We screen the best indie horror films from all over the world in the best possible venues - a vintage drive-in, and a historical 1940s era movie theater that features state-of-the-art sound and projection equipment, on a 30 by 20 foot screen.
