Not since Freddy met Jason has there been a more logical pairing in the horror genre: The Big Bear Horro-Fi Film Festival® is partnering with Fangoria magazine as the exclusive horror genre media sponsor. Fangoria’s editors will also be among the festival’s presenters, discussing the iconic publication’s origins, its content and an overview of “genre journalism” that is sure to be a scream.

Fangoria has had a presence at the festival in Big Bear Lake, California since it began in 2009. The magazine's presence and participation has grown as the festival's popularity has increased. This year's event is September 30 - October 2.

“Fangoria is the definitive magazine on all things horror, so it’s a natural fit for us to work together,” said BBHFF director of programming Christopher Gaida. “I wouldn’t exactly say that it’s a match made in heaven, but it’s one we’re very pleased about.” 

Justin Beahm with Fangoria Entertainment agreed. “Fangoria is proud to partner with the Big Bear Horro-Fi Film Festival® for their third anniversary,” he said. “With both brands sharing a strong commitment to independent genre entertainment, the relationship is only natural. Camped away in the woods at idyllic Big Bear Lake, I think together we will present an unforgettable festival experience unlike any other."

Founded in 2009, the Big Bear Horro-Fi Film Festival® is held annually in the mountains of Big Bear Lake, CA, to recognize excellence in the film genres of horror and science fiction. The festival continues to grow in popularity among novice filmmakers and Hollywood power players. Film submission deadlines have passed, but tickets are available for purchase for the three-day event.
