Next up for us is this neat event! Great vendors, great people, and of course you find a great deal or two which speaking of… we will be doing 2 for $5 horror DVDS only. Blu-rays will be $5 and Indy movies will be $5, plus you never know what we will be bringing from the magical basement as also (while supplies last) we will be giving out a free t-shirt to those who spend $20 or more at our table.— with Tom Gross at Monroeville Mall.
For our next Grossfest 2027 guest announcement is an unbelievable talent on screen as their presence is unlike anyone you have seen. Over the past decade they have acted in over two dozen independent films as their presence on screen makes fans out of everyone seeing them for the first time. They have been in projects such as: Plank Face, Space Babes from Outer Space, Slaughter House Slumber Party, The Embalmers, The Barn II, Fatal Desires, and Hobocop, with more to come in 2027. We like to introduce all of you to this great rising star as there can be only one… Alyss Winker!

Thought we would give yinz an inside look of someone who is joining Grossfest 2025 to be a part of our little convention to network, sell movies, and much more. This person might be the busiest individual we have ever had at our convention as they have worked behind the scenes on hundreds of projects! So many to list that the only other list that might be longer is Danny Trejo or Santa Claus… as it goes on forever (but we will supply yinz with a link to check it out). But more recently this person has spread their wings into directing, writing, and even a poetry book. This wonderful talent is not just a great addition for us but this person is just as excited to be a part of something different they have been hearing good things about and knew they had to be there to be a part of it. They have worked on: One-Eyed Monster, The Dog Who Saved Halloween, The Contractor, The Monster Project, Grandma’s Cookies, and Dark Lullabies. With great excitement we like to introduce yinz to a kind and personable soul who loves Indy cinema like all of us… Michael Coulombe!

Just when yinz thought we at Grossfest were done? Nope, we have one more! This person isn’t just another pretty face as their presence is beyond invaluable in front of the camera and behind. When they are not producing a film or ramping up to write more scripts they also do some local (Pittsburgh area) theater work. Ever since they showed up for an audition for a 2012 independent favorite called ‘Everyone Must Die!’ you knew they would be undeniably one of the brightest stars to ever grace the no budget screen. They might be known for such titles as: The Meowy movie series, Shingles: The Movie, and Head Case but what shows off their talent the most with little effort in all phases of filmmaking is their work with the CarousHell trilogy, Amityville Christmas Vacation (one of our favs), and Curtains For Christmas. This talent is so damn good and sweet they allowed themselves to be filmed in a segment for the anthology ‘Tales from the Gross Side’! We are always happy to see them but never been more excited to introduce them… We like to introduce all of yinz to one of the friendliest and hardest working talents in the independent scene… Aleen Isley!!!

Oh Grossfest fans we got one more for yinz to meet, enjoy, and have fun chatting with in August at Grossfest 2025. This person has taken an interesting path to get where they are as they are out of the state of New York. I would say they are a fresh face to the genre but they have done so much in a short span of time in front of the camera as an actor and behind the camera also that it makes you wonder when this awesome talent has had time to sleep. You may know this impressive talent in such films: She Kills, It Kills, Frozen Sasquatch, House Squatch, Cocaine Werewolf, and more shark films than Maddie Deering (the shark film expert) could imagine! A lot of yinz Indy fans will quite enjoy this major staple in and around Polonia Brothers Entertainment allow us to introduce yinz to the super cool Jamie Morgan!

Getting to know your special Grossfest 2025 guest!
This announcement should come as no surprise as this person has been one of the biggest supporters of Grossfest but also they are a local (Pittsburgh) talent with an exceptional personality that just stands out like non one you ever met. They are not just a triple threat but a whole lot more as they are a writer, actor, and director, you name it this person has done it or about to accomplish it. We at Grossfest would like to introduce yinz all to the wonderful, the handsome and always smiling… Jason Burke! Go check Jason’s work out:

Well fans we have another guest announcement and yinz can thank us at the show for this one. This person had busted out onto the Indy scene in 2018 with acting in a few short films but got their big break with the feature ‘The Curse of Lilith Ratchet’. Ever since then this person hasn’t looked back on becoming one of the hardest working actors in the Indy scene. Their talent, charm, and work ethic make them hard to miss on screen as their presence on film has made them one the hottest upcoming actors to have in an Indy project. You may know them from such titles: Debbie Does Demons, XXX-mas, Waspzilla, Killer Campout Part II, Crackcoon, Blood and Breakfast, with a host of other upcoming projects! But wait there is more as this wonderfully talented person is about to add writer/director to their list of credits with their own project ‘Martian Girl Massacre’ segment that will be a part of the ‘Amityville Aliens’ project (so of course massacre and Amityville made the Gross brothers ears perk up). We are proud to announce someone we know yinz are all gonna love having at Grossfest 2025… we like to introduce yinz to Morrigan Thompson-Milam! We enjoy this young lady’s passion and drive to conqueror the Indy genre in 2025 so please go check out her work sooner than later:
