Grindhouse Grind-Out Competition | knoxhorrorfest In 2011 the Knoxville Horror Film Fest introduced its own sick twist on the timed filmmaking competition, giving teams six hours and sixty-six minutes to produce a fake grindhouse-style movie trailer from a ridiculous genre chosen draft-style at the competition's opening ceremony.

Save the date!
We mentioned this weekend we were going to do an encore screening of this year's Grindhouse Grind-out, and we're pairing it with the film that reignited the love for these types of films, GRINDHOUSE. The best way to watch PLANET TERROR & DEATH PROOF is how it was originally intended in this double feature and we've been dying to screen this since we opened and can't think of a better way to do it. Join us on November 8th at 7p for the Grind-out encore followed by GRINDHOUSE!

Passes will be available again on October 1st.
It's only 2 days until October 1st! Besides the fact that Halloween is almost here, (we all know Halloween really starts on 10/1) it also means that we'll be putting up the rest of the passes for sale at 9am. These are going to be super limited (less than 10) and will probably go very fast. There will also be individual day passes and tickets for the Grindhouse Grind-out and THE EVIL DEAD screenings up for sale as well. We'll also be revealing the art for the exclusive beer we'll be selling courtesy of Elkmont Exchange!

Given how much of this sort of TV is produced here (primarily by beloved KHFF sponsors Jupiter Entertainment) we're not sure why it took us so long to introduce True Crime-sploitation to the genre list, but here's veteran Grind-outers Team Southern Creative totally nailing it!
Extra special shoutout to the detective, Joe Casterline, who won our GG2017 award for Best Performance!
