Thanks to everyone who threw in their choices for poster A or B of our 22nd annual South African Horrorfest . It was such a tight split between the two(!), and Sara also suggested to simply use both, which we did contemplate at first, but decided was the best choice, seeing as we have both the cinama leg and online streaming chapter of the festival!
The frontal image will be the main festival poster and cinema feature, with the profile view used with anything related to the streaming portion of the 2026 South African HORRORFEST
In-cinema shows will be at the L***a Theatre across 29OCT-8NOV with the streaming window linked from our Horrorfest.info site over the 28OCT-15NOV period (for those too far outside of Cape Town, in other parts of South Africa, or if you missed any cinema screenings).
The Bloody Parchment literature chapter will be at Exclusive Books.
