HorrorFest 2007 will run from November 9 to November 18, 2007 in over 350 theatres across America. The festival's site has not yet released concrete details as to how the event will be run, whether as two 3 night weekends, or one movie per day during the week. The 2007 films' trailer states "Horror - a genre of motion picture intended to thrill viewers by provoking fear or revulsion through the depiction of grotesque, violent, or supernatural events." As with last year, tickets are available to be purchased individually online or at local theater box offices. An all-access pass, which includes guaranteed seating and a goodie bag, is on-sale through the website until October 31st. Frontiers was one of the 8 Films to Die For at Horrorfest 2007, but due to the MPAA giving the film an NC-17 rating it will instead hit theatres unrated in 2008.
The eight films to be shown during this festival are:

Written and directed by Zev Berman, this film centers around Phil (played by Rider Strong from Cabin Fever) and his two college buddies who road-trip down to a Mexican border town to celebrate their college graduation. They run into a cult looking for human sacrifice and their weekend becomes a bloody test of survival.

Crazy Eights
Six friends reunite after 20 years at a mutual childhood friend's funeral. A search through their deceased friend's house reveals a map to a time capsule they buried some twenty years earlier which spurs the friends to find it and dig it up. After uncovering the trunk, the unexpected is found ... the rotted remains of a child. A child from a past they've long forgotten, a child that begins to haunt their every waking moment and makes them question who they really are. The closer they come to remembering the circumstances of the mysterious child's death, the closer they come to their own reckoning. The memory that will eventually kill them one by one is the same memory they need to discover to stay alive.
