Horror Fest

On 6 November the HorrorFest held their main event, the screening of their Short Film competition.
According the Paul Blom & Sonja Ruppersberg organizers of the Horror fest, the level of movies entered into the competition was top quality & made it difficult for the judges to decide on the winners.

The main prize for the HorroFest was sponsored by Visual Impact. The winning team received a one week free HDV camera rental with lighting plus a Macbook pro with FCP to do their editing.
After the screening of the Local & International short films the winners were announced & they are as follows:

Donker Herfs (Best S.A. Short)
Eviscerate (Best Title Sequence / Best Cinematography)
Cain (Best Make-Up & Visual FX)
On The Verge Of Blood (Best Homage)
