The Ax Wound Film Festival features an eclectic selection of horror films written and directed by trans, non-binary, and/or women filmmakers from around the world.
Our foundational ethos is rooted in and inspired by DIY guerrilla art movements and grassroots activism.

We approach every initiative under our umbrella through an intersectional feminist framework to foster support and amplify the voices of an eclectic community of storytellers whose work spans horror in all its forms in the no-wave, lo-fi, and mainstream spaces.
