I’m lucky to live in Atlanta, Georgia — home of The Walking Dead, southern gothic author Flannery O’Connor, and the film capital of the East Coast.

One such event is the annual Women in Horror Film Festival. An eagerly anticipated celebration of female filmmakers and visionaries, it boasts unique screeners of films that might otherwise get drowned out of the spotlight.
