Film Tampa Bay Presents, an all-new quarterly series
Last month, we joined Tampa Theatre to kick off their Nightmare on Franklin Street series in October. The screening of The Conjuring: The Devil Made Me Do It brought horror fans from far and wide to the historic movie palace to meet the stars of the film! Eugenie Bondurant and Paul Wilson (both Tampa Bay residents) signed autographs beforehand, and stayed after for an in-depth Q&A led by the Tampa Film Commissioner, Tyler Martinolich.
This is the first of the new “Film Tampa Bay Presents” quarterly series, a partnership between Film Tampa Bay and Tampa Theatre that offers free community screenings for films with a local touch. Whether it’s local talent, locations, crew…we offer the community a chance to come out and support local filmmakers at one of the most gorgeous theaters in the world.

The crowd was surprised by a personal shoutout from the star of the film, Patrick Wilson, before the screening began:
