For 25 years The Valley Film Festival has been supporting films “Made in the (818)” and the tradition continues with our opening night feature program:

In DOROTHEA, the infamous serial killer Dorothea Puente faces her final moments behind bars—but not before revealing the grotesque secrets of her past. From a childhood scarred by abuse and betrayal to the horrors hidden within her Sacramento boarding house, her confessions expose the terrifying path that turned a home into a graveyard. Based on true events.

Paired with the searing short IT’S OVER. THE END., two former friends reunite to return each other’s belongings—only to descend into a final confrontation that’s as brutal as it is unforgettable.

Both films pack shocking twists that will keep audiences guessing until the last frame.

More than a night of horror—our “Made in the (818)” program is a showcase of local talent with stories that will haunt you long after the credits roll.

Purchase tickets.
