Welcome to deadCENTER Film.

Whether you’re looking for your monthly independent film fix or one of the best weekends of your life at our festival, deadCENTER is the place for you. 

The mission of deadCENTER Film is to promote independent film arts. As filmmakers and film fans, we constantly work to bring independent films and independent filmmakers to Oklahoma City.  So whatever your taste, you’re sure to find it here. 

The 8th annual deadCENTER Film Festival June 11-15

The 8th annual deadCENTER Film Festival is almost here and we're excited to announce our 2008 festival lineup!  Click on the 'Festival 2008' button at the top of the page to check it out.  Once again, B-side is the host of our schedule.  By registering with B-side, you can take advantage of some great interactive tools such as tracking the festival buzz, creating a personal calendar, rating and reviewing films and more. 

If you've enjoyed our previous festivals, you're sure to enjoy this one.  As always, we will feature great independent films from around the world.  What else should you expect for 2008?

  • Projected audience of 6,000 film enthusiasts
  • National and international award-winning independent films
  • A myriad of Oklahoma films
  • Over 100 films will be shown at 8 different locations throughout downtown
  • A free kickin’ ”Kid’s Fest” – fun for the whole family
  • Multiple film professional panels and screenplay table-read
  • “Midnight Shorts” to showcase edgy, alternative films
  • Visiting filmmakers from around the globe
  • And, as always, Food, fun and cocktails

What's the best way to experience the deadCENTER Film Festival?  With an All-Access pass!  The All-Access pass is the golden ticket to over 100 films, all of our panels including the table-read, and (of course) the fantastic parties we've become known for.  Think about it.  5 days, over 100 films, experiencing your own filmmaking boot-camp with our panel series, and networking, networking, networking at our parties and special events.  No wonder the deadCENTER Film Festival is the "it" event of the summer.

If the All-Access pass is not your style, try out our Screening pass.  The Screening pass will still allow you access to all of our exceptional films for all 5 days.  And, if you're short on time and just want to check out a couple films, individual tickets may be purchased at each screening the day of that screening.  To purchase passes click the 'ticket' button at the top of the page.

Traveling to the festival?  Need a place to stay?  deadCENTER is pleased to inform you that the Colcord Hotel is once again our host hotel.  The Colcord is one of the finest boutique hotels in Oklahoma City and even better, it's located in the heart of downtown OKC (or shall we say-the deadCENTER).  The Colcord has extended a truly fantastic rate to those attending the festival...$139 per night.   Trust us, even if your not traveling far, you wouldn't want to miss out on this.  But don't wait.  This offer is only available through June 1, 2008.  You may book your room in one of two ways:
