Troma Dance Film Festival

When many people think of indie film festivals they might think of quiet, character-driven critical darlings, but the folks over at the Queens-based production company Troma are far more interested in DIY ambition and unique (often bizarre) artistic direction. This 16th annual edition features a movie about teenagers fighting against mutant bullies in Return to Nuke 'Em High Vol 2 and black-and-white animated film This Horror Most Unreal.
