MISSION STATEMENT
Arizona Underground Film Festival is Arizona’s only premier underground cult film festival, and one of the biggest genre film festivals in the country! We make it our sole mission to showcase the work of filmmakers with defiantly independent visions. We are on a quest to represent every genre of independent film from across the world celebrating the artist, and their work.

We are now celebrating our 5th year as one of the nation’s top underground cult film festivals. It will be a 9 day celebration running from Sept. 21st to 29th 2012. We will have films from categories of Narrative, Horror, Documentaries, Experimental, Animation, and we are proud to be the only festival to offer an Exploitation category. Join us in the underground!

TICKETS
General Admission: $7
Tickets will be available for purchase through our website, and at the box office before each screening, unless the film is sold out. So make sure you get your tickets online before the film sells out.

FESTIVAL PASSES
$65 (LIMITED TO ONLY 100 PASSES)
The festival passes will go on sale through our website, and will be limited to only a 100 passes. The pass includes free admission to all the screenings, and after parties. Festival passes will only be sold through the website, and are sold on a first come first serve basis until all are gone! Having a pass guarantees you into any and all films for the festival, if there is a line, pass holders get to the front, they are let in the theater first, but you must arrive 15 min before the start of the film to guarantee seating. Its like VIP Treatment for the moviegoer. The festival passes are valued at $150, but we are selling them for less than half the price! Because of this we do expect these to sell out very fast. Pass holders will be able to pick up their passes in person(will call) anytime during the festival at the box office.
