NWFEARFest 3-Film Discovery Pack

Not sure of what to see?

The NorthwestFEARFest 3-film Discovery Pack has been curated specifically to give festival audiences the chance to see 3 of the year's hottest new genre films from new and emerging filmmakers! Be the FIRST to see the next wave of genre films that you'll be hearing about over the coming months!

Our Discovery 3-Pack is an AMAZING deal: For just $20.23 + fees (= $6.75 per film!), you will receive 1 ticket to EACH of the following films:

  1. JERICHO RIDGE -Will Gilbey's debut feature film pays homage to classics like Assault on Precinct 13 and VFW, as a small-town sheriff battles unknown attackers in this white-knuckle siege thriller.

  2. DEPARTING SENIORS - Canadian Premiere! When a masked killer terrorizes Javier’s high school, and he acquires an unusual gift, he and his best friend Bianca take on the responsibility of capturing the killer themselves.

  3. THE ELDERLY - directors Raúl Cerezo and Fernando González Gómez follow up their brilliantly unhinged 2021 horror film, The Passenger ("La pasajera"), with this truly terrifying paranormal shocker. When the wife of octogenarian, Manuel, suddenly and unexpectedly commits suicide, it sets off an unstoppable chain of events that threatens to destroy everyone around him.
