PHILADELPHIA (CBS) – It’s almost time for Philadelphia’s “scream team” to take its annual excursion into horror movies.

Submitted for your consideration, the Terror Film Festival, lurching toward us this Thursday, Friday and Saturday, offers two groups of shorts each night and then one feature-length movie, all being screened at the Ethical Society building Rittenhouse Square.

The Festival’s spokesghoul, “Princess Horror”, says it’s more than Twilight and Walking Dead knockoffs.

“We actually have a lot of different categories. For example, all three of our features are very, very different. Nailbiter, it’s not exactly a zombie film, but it kind of has these werewolf/zombie-like creatures in it.”

Nailbiter is the Friday feature. Information and even discounted tickets at TerrorFilmFestival.com.
