After a long hiatus, Grindhouse Nights Film Festival is back! For our 10th anniversary, we're bringing you a two day show on April 23rd and 24th, 2022 at Crossroads in Garwood, NJ. Click the image below to visit the official event website!
Grindhouse Nights Film Festival is a film festival unlike any other! Imagine a full day of horror themed entertainment, combining the best in independent horror films with extraordinary live entertainment. Nowhere else will you find an entire day of horror thrills and chills for one low price!
Typically, Grindhouse Nights FF takes place twice per year, in the Spring and Fall. Our current venue is Roxy & Dukes Roadhouse in Dunellen, NJ. A roadhouse you say? YES! Roxy & Dukes is a well known NJ entertainment venue with great atmosphere, superb food and drinks and a beautiful stage for our performers.
Grindhouse Nights is a curated festival, and we do not give out awards. Many people have asked us why. Our feeling is that there are plenty of award based festivals out there and we wanted to have an event that was not based on competition, but rather on filmmakers and fans coming together to share in what they love. One of the popular elements of our festival is the Q&A session that takes place after each screening block. This gives the filmmakers, cast and crew an opportunity to interact directly with the audience, and answer questions about their films. Not to mention the fact that the entire day consists of the cast and crew mingling with fans, which leads to great opportunities for networking!
Throughout the day, we also offer incredible live entertainment. Over our 8 years and counting, we have featured burlesque performers, opera singers, rock singers, magicians, sideshow acts and much, much more, once again making Grindhouse Nights Film Festival the best full day of horror-themed entertainment you'll ever find!
