After 8 successful runs of the popular i48 Film Competition and Festival, we’re announcing a fall event to keep the creative juices flowing. h48 – The Horror Idaho 48 Film Competition and Festival.

WHAT IS h48?

The first (and possibly annual) Horror Idaho Forty Eight Hour Film Competition and Festival is a spin-off from the i48 Competition and Festival held every May-June.  In response to the frequent request from i48 teams for the “horror” genre and a relaxation of the i48 requirement that films be “PG” comes the opportunity to make movies as gory and profane as you want. Teams of filmmakers will have 48 hours to write, pre-produce, cast, shoot, and edit, an original short horror film five (5) to seven (7) minutes long.  A week later, all eligible films will be screened at the Horror Idaho 48 Film Festival at the Country Club Reel Theatre in Boise.
