The primary goal of Strange Maynard is to put on a festival that's FUN! 

 

We would say that this is a Horror Comedy film festival, but any of the films may lean more or entirely in one direction than the other and horror is NOT a requirement. Furthermore, horror is a very broad genre and we do not adhere to strict rules about what is and isn't considered horror.

​

What are we NOT looking for? Drama, art films, the types of films 

​

We love underground filmmakers, low budget filmmakers, first time filmmakers, and people who are passionate about filmmaking. There is no budget too small to make a great film!

​

What are we looking for? It's probably easier to just throw some words at you to get the idea:

• Existential Dread!

• Lynchian!

• Bizarre!

• Cronenberg!

• Creepy!

• B-horror/camp!

• Low budget!

• Bloody!

• Weird!

• Unsettling!

• FUNNY!

​

Films must be under 20 minutes in length.
