What is Film Carnage?

After establishing the site in 2015, the overall aim of Film Carnage has become entirely about celebrating indie film. Whether it’s a short or a feature, the goal is simply to help filmmakers by highlighting the amazing work they’re doing and giving honest, constructive reviews.

There has been a fantastic variety of films sent in over the years from all over the world and every possible genre, and I love getting to watch and write about such a wide selection of projects.

Which is exactly why anyone can request a review by sending their film to cherryfilms7@gmail.com. It’s an open and free submission, so if you’d like your film to be featured on Film Carnage, don’t hesitate to send it in.

How does the submission work?

All you need to do is send in a screener, a couple of stills and a trailer (if you have one) to the above email address, and that’s it.

Unfortunately, after so many years of running the site, with the amount of submissions, festivals and releases to cover, I can no longer make any guarantees with the free option, but I aim to cover as many as I possibly can.

I offer a paid option to guarantee a review for a small fee, including rush reviews to be received within 1-2 weeks and private reviews, more info can be found here. Those funds then go towards keeping the site running and to allow me be able to dedicate as much time as possible to writing reviews.

Who is Film Carnage?

A little info on who runs the site for anyone who’s curious: I’m a one person team, I’ve written every review featured on the site (which is over 2,300 as of 2026) and will continue doing so as long as you keep sending in your films.
