Fantastic Film Festival Australia and Umbrella Entertainment are proud to present the inaugural Fantastic Film Prize, a landmark initiative celebrating the boldest voices in Australian genre cinema.
With a $10,000 cash prize awarded to the winning feature-length film, this new competition is set to spotlight visionary filmmakers pushing the boundaries of horror, sci-fi, fantasy, action, cult, and the downright unclassifiable.
We’re seeking original, completed Australian feature films that dare to thrill, provoke, mesmerise or completely defy expectations.
A curated selection of entries will screen in competition at FFFA 2026, with the Fantastic Film Prize winner chosen by a jury of esteemed industry leaders during the festival.
Entries open October 8, 2025. This initiative is a celebration of fearless storytelling and aims to support the next wave of bold, genre-defying Australian voices.
