Note: This is a special edition Halloween version of NoBudge Live! All directors will be in costume for the post-film Q&A and Afterparty. We encourage audience members who wish to dress up, please do!  The audience member selected best dressed of the nite will receive a Nitehawk / NoBudge / Movies Brand prize package!

NoBudge is a movies club that presents a hand-picked selection of new indie movies daily. “One of the best places to sample what’s happening in low-budget cinema worldwide,” says Glenn Kenny of The New York Times. Its mission is to provide a supportive home for emerging indie filmmakers working with limited resources and without major industry connections, and to be a trusted discovery platform helping audiences find their new favorite movies and filmmakers.
