Support Female Horror Filmmaking

Did you know that in 2019, only 26% of the top 100 grossing horror features had female protagonists and only 17% were directed by women? The simple fact is, the unique female voice is largely absent in horror films.

Award-winning filmmaker Tara Garwood is on a mission to change that.

Garwood recently completed producing and directing “The Strangle of Ivy”, adapted from the short gothic horror story of the same name. Join Tara’s filmmaking journey and find out about upcoming festival screenings by signing up for the Tarakata Films newsletter below!
