Read MoreFrightFest Day Four – Short Film Showcase Two, Wolfkin, H4Z4RD, Torn Hearts and The Price We Pay
With Day Three having featured the best film of the festival so far, Something in the Dirt, I wasn’t sad that we’d reached the penultimate day already so much as just excited for some more.

First published in March 2020.
