Cinepocalypse Film Festival to Take Over Chicago’s Music Box Theatre This November
For the past three years, Chicago has been home to the Bruce Campbell Horror Film Festival. With guests such as Fede Alvarez, Christopher Lloyd, William Sadler, Tom Holland, Barbara Crampton, Jackson Stewart, and more in attendance, it was one of the premiere Midwest film festivals, one that brought new and fascinating horror to residents and visitors of the Windy City. This year, the Bruce Campbell Horror Film Festival is evolving into Cinepocalypse, which promises to bring exciting, ass-kicking films, events, and special guests!
Taking place November 2nd through 9th at the Music Box Theatre in Rosemont, Illinois, the festival is being organized by Josh Goldbloom, Founder & Artistic Director of The Awesome Fest and what had been known as Bruce Campbell’s Horror Film Festival, and Ryan Oestreich, General Manager of The Music Box Theatre.
Oestreich states, “We’re beyond thrilled to host this next iteration of the horror film festival. We pride ourselves on taking risks in our programming and offering a diverse slate of films. Partnering with Josh to create Cinepocalypse makes perfect sense for us as we continue our commitment to great film in Chicago.
Goldbloom adds, “Cinepocalypse will take this iconic film festival to horrific new heights. We plan on presenting Chicago an unrivaled offering of bloody international badassery and terror with our friends at the Music Box.”
The full schedule will be announced in October. Early bird tickets can be purchased right here.
