Montreal is hosting Fantasia Festival and you are welcome to attend. Started in 1996 it claims to be the largest genre focused festival in North America. Devoted to high violence gore movies / documentaries, sci-fi and Asian action films, Fantasia is not for somebody with weak stomach. Prepare for violence, course language and is some case very sexual content.

Here’s some of the movies lines up this year:

Special Guests

Fantasia also has special guests at every edition, with notables including director John Carpenter, Lars Von Trier’s fetish actor Udo Kier and A Clockwork Orange’s poster boy Malcolm McDowell.

The headquarters are located at Concordia University’s Hall Theatre and J.A. De Sève Cinema.
