About Blood Sick
Blood Sick is dedicated to creating a community of independent filmmakers and genre fans. We produce our own movies as well as distribute and exhibit movies from other like minded artists. Blood Sick Productions is our distribution and productions company founded by Brewce Longo and Michael DiFrancesco. We have a monthly screening series known as Blood Sick Underground Cinema that screens every 2nd Monday at PhilaMOCA. The very first Blood Sick Underground Film Fest will take place on April 18th 2026. Blood Sick events are curated by Brewce Longo.
Blood Sick Underground Film Fest
Blood Sick is dedicated to screening the best movies in the underground scene. Transgressive genre films, shot-on-video, metal / punk made, outsider art, backyard horror, and movies made outside the studio system on a DIY ethos speak to us.
This festival comes from the curators of Blood Sick Underground Cinema, a monthly screening series in Philadelphia that has hosted a wide variety of guest filmmakers like Joe Swanberg, Eugene Kotlyarenko, Adam Green, David "The Rock" Nelson, Janice.Click, Kasper Meltedhair, Rock Savage, JR Bookwalter, Todd Sheets, Hayden Hall, Dylan Mars Greenberg and many more.
Blood Sick Underground Film Fest is an all day festival that will run from noon to midnight with a brief intermission and short film between each feature. It is primarily focused on screening new or undiscovered movies but we may also include an anniversary screening of a beloved underground classic.
The festival will take place on April 18th 2026 at PhilaMOCA, Philadelphia's only theatre devoted strictly to independent film and music.
This is a one day festival which limits us to about 5-7 feature films depending on length. Any submissions not accepted to the festival due to lack of time we have available may be considered for future screenings as part of Blood Sick Underground Cinema's monthly screening series.
Submission are now open on Film Freeway
