The PollyGrind is Las Vegas' Premiere Underground Film Festival. It is put on in the same spirit as old school grindhouse cinema - no funding and creatively using whatever is available. This is our second year, our sequel, and we hope to be a little bigger and better than our debut.

For those that are involved in or 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

"Gindhouse isn't a genre, it isn't a style; it's a state of mind." - Chad Clinton Freeman

ABOUT THE FESTIVAL

The PollyGrind is an underground film festival and considers any and all independently produced and non distributed movies that are  slightly off kilter. 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 PollyGrind Film Festival 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 consists of programming in the tradition of grindhouse theaters with double features, bookended by trailers and music videos.
