Drag Me To Fest is the independent horror film festival that lights up Milan with a unique and engaging showcase. Founded in November 2021 through the collaboration of Joe Godoy Gonzalez, Art Director and creator of the horror site Non Aprite Questo Blog, and Chiara Natalini, filmmaker and curator of the Diaiaui series, the festival serves as a shining beacon for horror enthusiasts.
Located in the heart of Milan, Drag Me To Fest celebrates independent horror cinema by highlighting works from bold and innovative directors, both Italian and international. Aiming to rediscover and enhance the collective experience of cinema, the festival creates a unique environment where the magic of the big screen is shared and enjoyed live.
The festival takes place in an exceptional venue: Santeria di via Paladini 8, an iconic 500 sqm space in Milan featuring an outdoor courtyard, bar/bistro, record shop, bookstore, and a room dedicated to exhibitions, concerts, literary presentations, and, of course, film screenings. This vibrant and versatile setting provides the ideal context for an event that blends horror cinema with Milan’s cultural and artistic scene.
Sponsored by the clothing brand Taboo, the film label Rustblade Records, and the horror site NAQB, Drag Me To Fest is much more than just a festival; it’s a celebration of creativity and innovation in the horror film landscape. If you’re passionate about horror films and want to discover the latest trends in the genre in an inspiring atmosphere, don’t miss the chance to attend this unmissable event.
