Fantastic–particularly loved the audience feedback. It tracked so well with our positive Premiere screening feedback, and an area that was a little confusing, so we are tweaking just a bit to address. Thank you for the award also!

Today’s FilmFreeway Deadline: ACTION/FANTASY/SCI-FI/THRILLER Festival

Submit to the Festival via FilmFreeway. Deadline Today:

A showcase of the best Action/Adventure/Fantasy/Sci-Fi/Thriller Films and Screenplays from around the world. In-person and hybrid screenings. Plus interviews for the artists.

Festival takes place every single month.

Screenplay submissions offer writers at all levels the fantastic opportunity to hear their stories read aloud using professional actors. Full feedback on all submissions as well by our team of professional screenwriters.

We have created a hybrid festival with 4 tiers to enhance your film and your festival experience. All accepted films receive all four tier options:

Tier #1 – Your film plays at a public film festival event where the audience will record their comments/reactions to your film on their camera or phone, then we edit them and send you a promotional video. No matter what you will receive a promotional video of your film of people commenting on your film.

Tier #2 (optional) – Your film plays on the Film Festival streaming service for 30 hours and invite a select industry audience to watch it. With this system, some films have already received a distribution deal, as many platforms are looking for solid feature and short documentaries. We can not guarantee anything, of course but this has been very helpful to many in the past. (see testimonials below)

Then (Tier #3) we will send you a list of questions to answer for our blog interview that will promote you and your film. Then after that (Tier #4) we will set up a podcast interview on our popular ITunes show where we will chat with you about the process of how the film was made.

September 2025 TORONTO COMEDY Festival (5 STAR) Testimonials.

Well organized and great communication from the organizers!

Deadline Today to submit to the festival:

FEEDBACK Toronto Comedy Film and Screenplay Festival is a must for filmmakers because you get direct feedback that allows you to know if your film works. Do people get it? Does it engage conversation? All of these questions were answered and more. Thank you. And Thank you for recognizing the actors that put in a great performance. There is a lot of talent out there and to tip your hat to two of ours, makes us giddy.


Terrific read on my script, did a tremendous job! Great feedback and suggestions. Enjoyed meeting them and had fun on the podcast. Heartily recommend the Toronto Comedy Film and Screenplay festival.


A fantastic festival that gives you audience feedback through a video compilation – nothing I’ve ever experienced a festival do before! It was incredible hearing what people thought of our film and the depth the were able to get from it – it was even slightly emotional hearing what they had to say. A Brilliant festival!


The most communicative staff of all the fests I’ve been involved with. Definitely focused on encouraging and promoting work.
