Horror is a vessel to bring strong emotions to us. We continue a journey that get an unique identity, as a paralel universe where criativity made in the freedom that night brings unleash our fears, our poetry, our ilegal desires turned oniric, a satisfaction in our dual mind and spirit, to laugh, to crie, to be scare, we seek emotions. We give and receive them. Darkly.  Horror Unleashed has been a creation that opened a Portal in Portugal to this paralel universe made indendent, and so, what we receive is what we see, what we judge with several perspectives, the perspectives taken in the night, in freedom. Sex is explicit. Blood is explicit. All content is legal to be screened. Only the mind that created the Work is the judge of itself. And censorship is censored.

 

In the screen we had 214 films. Proud of each Work we received. Proud to have so much quantity and quality in a thematic Film Festival, that are rare in Portugal. We hoped that Horror prevailed. And so it was. All questions were made again and again, to follow the Portal created, that unleashed 24 awards. What makes the Horror so attractive? The answers infinite. From a dark cave in Porto, Portugal, we judge you all.
