Silver Scream Film and Comic Festival 2017 in Dallas, Texas: Press Release: "Silver Scream Film and Comic Festival will be taking its second year on vacation — to Texas.
Normally held in Santa Rosa, CA and originally scheduled for February, the Famous Monsters and Cosmic-Con® event will instead run for three days at the Dallas Sheraton Hotel and Convention Center alongside Alien Expo™, the newest extravaganza from the producers of Alien Con™.
“Due to scheduling conflicts, we’ve decided to move the festival to Dallas,” said Philip Kim, Cosmic-Con Producer and Publisher of Famous Monsters. “Luckily, the large number of submissions will be better accommodated by Alien Expo, and holding the festival alongside a convention will increase the number of potential participants.”
The submission deadlines for Silver Scream will be extended two months to allow for local Dallas writers’ and filmmakers’ participation, and future guest announcements will be made to coincide with convention events.
Silver Scream will return to Santa Rosa in 2018."

Tamika hails from North Beach, Maryland, a tiny town inches from the Chesapeake Bay.She knew she wanted to be an actor after reciting a soliloquy by Sojourner Truth in front of her entire fifth grade class. Since then, she's appeared in over 20 film and television projects. In addition to acting, Tamika is the Indie Spotlight manager for Daily Dead, where she brings readers news on independent horror projects every weekend.
The first horror film Tamika watched was Child's Play. Being eight years old at the time, she remembers being so scared when Chucky came to life that she projectile vomited. It's tough for her to choose only one movie as her favorite horror film, so she picked two: Nosferatu and The Stepford Wives (1975).
