A weird little festival for weird little movies in the weirdest little city in South Carolina. Babylon Fest lives at The Babylon Kino, Columbia's space for underground movies in Columbia's rowdiest bar district. Give us your riskiest movie; we'll give you an audience with more enthusiasm than good sense.

The third Babylon Fest is curated and MC'ed by producer David Axe, underground movie expert Harper Hudgens and B-movie critic A.C. Nicholas. Expect plenty of pre-parties, after-parties and opportunities to chat up indie filmmakers. Cash bar. Tickets!
