Dark Cinema is a horror-based film festival for Utah cinematographers with a passion for the dark side of storytelling. For one night only, the darkness descends, and audiences are invited to experience something truly unique—an evening filled with spine-tingling short films that push the boundaries of fear. In the eerie, atmospheric setting of the Ritz, you’ll feel the chill as tales of terror unfold on screen, gripping your senses and haunting your thoughts long after the credits roll.
