Held back on Sept. 21-29, the 5th annual Arizona Underground Film Festival was a major blow-out event of extreme underground greatness. And, to top it all off, they handed out a gaggle of awards to both feature films and shorts alike.

The big winner was the Best of Fest award that went to Michael Melamedoff’s sly drama The Exhibitionists, about a bunch of hedonists gathered on New Year’s Eve. Meanwhile, the Audience Award went to the reality TV parody Ghosts With Shit Jobs by Chris McCawley, Jim Morrison, Jim Munroe and Tate Young; and Kenton Bartlett’s torture flick Missing Pieces won the Director’s Award.

Some other winners include Spencer Parsons‘ Saturday Morning Massacre for Best Horror Feature, a film that while not reviewed yet on the Underground Film Journal we’ve seen it and easily declare one of the best horror movies of the last few years. The Vincent Gallo-starring The Legend of Kaspar Hauser, directed by Davide Manuli, won for Best Experimental Feature and Best Narrative went to the “altar boys gone bad” comedy Funeral Kings by Kevin and Matthew McManus.

On the short film front, Alexander Yan’s Elko, which has been ripping up the entire film festival circuit this year, won for Best Narrative Short; and Kevin Lonano’s Blue Sheep Suit won for Best Horror Short.
