2018 - David Allensworth
What a great Austin fest that really takes care of the filmmakers every step of the way. Phenomenal communication and organization. Never felt nervous about our screenings as it all ran smoothly.
The organizers (Bears, Jordan, Dan and the rest of the team) were enthusiastic about each film and are huge fans of sci-fi and horror genres. They filled the theaters and promoted the event online and with local papers. Bravo. Will return in a heartbeat.

2018 - Jake Jarvi
I had the best time at Other Worlds Austin. I couldn't believe how many people came out to see the short film blocks. The horror shorts were playing opposite the closing night film and we still had a packed house. The team that runs the fest is so great and organized and they throw great Q&As. The filmmaker events are super fun and appropriately boozy. I met so many cool genre filmmakers who just wanted to chat, so much so that after the closing night party a group of us went back to the hotel and talked sci-fi and horror until almost 3 in the morning. Flix Brewhouse as a venue is outstanding. Huge screens; great projection and sound. 5 out of 5. Like. Subscribe. Can't wait to go back.”
