Block 23 – Queens of the Dead with Tina Romero. Buried Alive’s Filmmaker of The Year.
Screen: LeFont
Join us for a special screening of Queens of the Dead, directed and co-written by Tina Romero, BAFF’s 2025 Filmmaker of the Year, followed by a live Q&A and poster signing. Buried Alive is honoring Tina for her bold contributions to genre cinema, her commitment to community empowerment, and her work with the George A. Romero Foundation, where she helps preserve her father’s legacy while uplifting the next generation of horror creators. With her vibrant, satirical debut feature about a queer Brooklyn found family battling a zombie outbreak, Tina is forging a legacy all her own—fearlessly innovative, inclusive, and barrier-breaking. This will be a night to remember. (P.S. She’ll also join our free Screenwriters Panel on Saturday, very limited space, RSVP required!)

The Buried Alive Awards Ceremony (Runtime: 90 mins)
Screen: LeFont
** 30 min interactive panel before the awards.**
Join us as we honor the best of the fest at The Buried Alive Awards Ceremony! Celebrate the filmmakers, writers, actors, and artists who brought the year’s most daring, disturbing, and unforgettable nightmares to life. With handcrafted trophies, special guests, and a few creepy surprises along the way, this is more than just an awards show, it’s a darkly joyous celebration of horror in all its forms. Come raise a glass (of blood, perhaps) and toast to the brilliance of those who live to keep the genre alive… and buried.
