Here’s some of the many positive testimonials and reviews we received from filmmakers who had their films play at last year’s festival:

Feature Filmmakers

“We had a wonderful showing of our film at the Toronto After Dark Film Festival, which was our Canadian Premiere. The staff were so passionate about the films that were showing. I would recommend anyone with a genre film to submit to this fest, it’s a fantastic place to find an audience for your film. ”
— Jamie Bullock, Producer, BEACH PARTY AT THE THRESHOLD OF HELL


“Toronto After Dark Film Festival is truly dedicated to independent art, and is brilliantly curated. I was incredibly proud to attend the inaugural Festival.”

— Lloyd Kaufman, Director, THE TOXIC AVENGER and POULTRYGEIST

“The passionate and extraordinarily knowledgeable programmers at Toronto After Dark Film Festival created a wonderful, heartfelt experience for both fans and filmmakers.”
— Scott Glosserman, Director, BEHIND THE MASK: THE RISE OF LESLIE VERNON


“I had such a wonderful time screening our film, at the Toronto After Dark Film Festival.  More than any festival I’ve ever been to, Toronto After Dark has the feeling of being run by film lovers, for film lovers. They played movies that were exciting, and would otherwise be very hard to find.  As for our screening, I couldn’t have been more pleased. The lineup for our film was around the block!”

—Hal Haberman, Director, SPECIAL


Short Filmmakers

“It’s awfully tough to get recognition from more traditional festivals. Toronto After Dark is a great opportunity for those of us labouring away in the dark recesses of genre cinema!”
—Mike Jackson, Short Filmmaker, THE VEIL


“I am really proud to have been included in Toronto After Dark. I signed my distribution agreement last week for FUDDLEBE. I got the offer from a distributor who saw the film at the festival!”
— John Reed, Short Filmmaker, FUDDLEBE


“I couldn’t have asked for a better response from people who share my obsession with all things fantastical. The people responsible for Toronto After Dark have given me nothing but positive support and assistance with my film.”
—Steven Kostanski, Short Filmmaker, FANTASY BEYOND

“Toronto After Dark Film Festival is a fantastic venue for those great films that don’t fit into the mainstream”
—Agata De Santis, Short Filmmaker, THE GRANDFATHER PARADOX.
