Hollywood Horrorfest is an international fundraising film festival that “celebrates and keeps alive the spirit of the horror film genre.” The downside is that the “Hollywood” in the title actually means the festival is held there, so if you’re not in the general LA area, you won’t be able to attend. If you CAN make it to the festival, though, here’s a look at what awaits you. This year’s Hollywood Horrorfest has some great guests: Cassandra Peterson – ELVIRA (July 26) Peterson is set to receive the PRICE AWARD, honoring excellence in horror; Vincent Price’s daughter Victoria will present the award, followed by a screening of Elvira classic Elvira’s Haunted Hills and cast & crew Q&A. Alan Howarth – (July 27) — The electronic music legend is set to receive an IMPACT AWARD, then play a live concert with music from John Carpenter classics They Live, Halloween and Escape from New York, then a cast & crew reunion Q&A following a screening of They Live. ** Kevin Tenney – (July 28)
