New Platform Ripcord Debuts Halloween Film Festival for Genre Fans

Ripcord, a newly launched independent film platform built to connect genre filmmakers directly with their audiences, has announced its first festival. The Halloween Film Festival will showcase work aimed at horror and genre fans, according to the platform. The launch marks an early step for the company as it positions itself as a direct link between filmmakers and the audiences built around genre film. For a local industry built on independent production and distribution, a new venue aimed squarely at genre work is worth noting.
