COMING SOON!

New York Grindhouse Film Festival

Get ready for a wicked and wild cinematic ride that harkens back to the gritty glory days of grindhouse cinema! The New York Grindhouse Film Festival is here to unleash a feast of filthy, outrageous, and unapologetically coarse short films and features that will transport you straight into the heart of the underground cinema scene in 1970s New York. From horror to slasher, exploitation to sexploitation, giallo to the experimental, this festival celebrates the edgiest, dirtiest, and most unrefined gems that the world of filmmaking has to offer.

In the shadowy corners of New York City, where the neon lights flicker and the atmosphere oozes with degenerate excitement, our bi-annual festival pays homage to the roots of grindhouse culture. A throwback to the days when sleazy theaters hosted the grittiest and most taboo of cinematic thrills, we proudly uphold the tradition that started it all. We're seeking true aficionados of the grindhouse style – those fearless filmmakers who dare to venture beyond the limits of mainstream cinema, embracing the art of the bizarre and the shocking.

At the New York Grindhouse Film Festival, we revel in the rough edges of old analogue tech, where vintage formats like VHS and miniDV share the limelight with HD-shot films — as long as they carry an unmistakable aura of underground authenticity. We're not interested in polished Hollywood glamour; we crave the scrappy, the grimy, the untamed. Our screens come alive with works that exude the indie spirit of grindhouse. From super cool to super weird, as long as it's undeniably grindhouse, we’re into it.

So join us, fellow lovers of the bizarre and the outrageous, as we revel in the unapologetic B-movie artistry of grindhouse cinema. The New York Grindhouse Film Festival is your passport to a world where the dirtier, the cheaper, and the more outrageous a film is, the more it's celebrated. Step into our darkened world, let the neon glow envelop you, and prepare for a cinematic experience that takes you back to a time when films were as raw, untamed, and utterly unforgettable as the scene was in Times Square decades ago.
