The
Razor Reel Flanders Film Festival, the only Flemish genre film festival, takes
place from Thursday November, 5 to Tuesday November, 10, 2015 in the city
center of Bruges. During the course of 6 days, we present a quality selection
of the best national and international genre films (fantasy, thrillers, action,
comedies, animated films,...) to our audience, in a unique, intimate and cosy
atmosphere! We also welcome many guests and we host lectures and Q&A's that
enrich the visitor’s knowledge.
These
are important parts of the program:
COMPETITIONS

Blood Award
With
“Young Blood”, the Razor Reel Flanders Film Festival offers a platform to
