Last week we shared that our friends at The Horror Collective had acquired Jason Miller's horror flick, Ghosts of the Void. The flick was having its final festival screening at Popcorn Frights last weekend, after which we would have to wait to hear when The Horror Collective will do a wide release. It should be later this year.
Well, they now have an accolade and publicity boost when promoting the film as the festival has announced that it won the jury award for Scariest Feature Film Prize. Congrats to Miller and their team. We will have to see for ourselves if the jury got it right when Ghosts of the Void releases later this year.
