United States · Multiple structural red flags — exercise caution before submitting
I could not verify a film festival formally named the FearFighters Quarterly Showcase in the provided results. The closest matching result appears to be an online fear-themed festival associated with the slogan “Fight the fear and be free,” but the available information does not establish it as a recognized U.S. film festival circuit event or clearly define its programming focus.[1]
