The PollyGrind is being put on in the same spirit as old school grindhouse cinema - no funding and creatively using whatever is available. This is our first year and we are doing what we can with what we have, kicking in the Las Vegas film festival door.

For those that support independent filmmaking and those that love cult, horror, sci-fi, exploitation, arthouse, cool, edgy, sexy and bloody works of cinema, here is your chance to be apart of the revolution that is known as the PollyGrind. 

Grind on,
Chad Clinton Freeman,
Creator & Director of the PollyGrind

ABOUT THE FESTIVAL

The PollyGrind, which takes place May 12, 13, 14, 15 and 16 at the Sci-Fi Center in Las Vegas, considers any and all independently produced grindhouse works. This includes, but is not limited to horror, gore, sci-fi, fantasy, exploitation, sexploitation, underground, arthouse, cult, experimental, dark, creepy and campy features and shorts. The festival also welcomes music videos and trailers/ad spots from any genre.

MISSION & OBJECTIVE

The Polly Staffle Grindhouse Fest is all about the darker side of cinema and the artists that bring those films to life. Our aim is to celebrate individuality, diversity, creativity and empowerment by showcasing the work of filmmakers with defiantly independent visions. The festival will consist of five days of programming in the tradition of grindhouse theaters with double  and triple features each day, bookended by trailers and music videos.

ABOUT THE SCI-FI CENTER

Located at the northwest corner of the Commercial Center (right off Sahara on 2520 State Street, Las Vegas, NV 89109), the Sci-Fi Center is a comic book and film geek’s paradise. Owned by William Powell, the store houses a true grindhouse movie theater dubbed “The Underground Screening Room” that showcases arthouse, horror, cult, science fiction, fantasy and independent cinema not usually available at traditional theaters in Sin City.
