Vampire Fest accepts all films that could be classified in the context of vampire, supernatural and the bizarre. A filmmaker can even submit a documentary about Goth people or about Gothic architecture. Vampire Fest will accept any narrative or experimental film that emphasizes the grotesque, mysterious or desolate. The legend of the werewolf and other supernatural creatures are interconnected with that of vampire and Vampire Fest is open to films of the Goth, zombie and werewolf, witch or ghost genre. Filmmakers can submit on line at http://www.vampirefilmfestival.com or at http://www.withoutabox.com/."

- "The recent vampire craze born of Twilight and True Blood came a bit too late to save CBS' Moonlight. The vampire detective series was canceled after one season. But it won a Saturn Award for best series on DVD last week, and executive producer Harry Werksman offered fans some hope that a Moonlight movie could offer some closure."
