As the eighth annual Screamfest drew to a close this past Sunday night in the heart of Hollywood, Fango attended the award ceremony held at Level 3 at Hollywood and Highland (see exclusive photos from the ceremony and fest below). With drinks flowing and merriment abounding, director Toby Wilkins’ creature feature Splinter swept the evening.
The movie (opening theatrically beginning October 31 from Magnolia) garnered golden Screamfest skulls for Best Picture, Best Directing, Best Makeup, Best Editing and Best Musical Score. Screamfest sponsor Boost was on hand to present filmmaker Tate Steinsiek with its Best of the Next in Horror award (which included a $10,000 cash prize) for his short film Clown, while director Michael Dougherty unsurprisingly picked up the Audience Choice award for his amazing Trick ‘R Treat. The full rundown of winners is below; for more on Screamfest, visit the official site linked above. (Special thanks to Rachel Belofsky and publicist...
