The stated motto of the festival is 'cults, classics and genre-benders'. Especially the section of contemporary films very firmly follows genre-bending approach, and the chosen films are of a very diverse nature, and can also include Tollywood historic blockbusters. Some of them are Child of God (James Franco, 2013), Aleluja Alléluia (Fabrice du Welz, 2013), What We Do in the Shadows (Taika Waititi, Jemaine Clement, 2014), Bahubali: The Beginning (S. S. Rajamouli, 2015), Demon (Marcin Wrona, 2015,), Bone Tomahawk(S. Craig Zahler, 2015)
The retrospectives are either thematically or author focused. There was the 'Urban versus rural' selection (from Boorman's Deliverance to Italian cannibal exploitation), a presentation of the ouvre of the cult Italian italo-horror direcotor Mario Bava (his son, also a director, was that year's guest speaker), and – in 2016 – the trope of the final girl (a concept taken from the work of the theorist Carol J. Clover), which pays tribute to prominent female figures and roles. Examples of this theme are I Spit on Your Grave (Meir Zarchi, 1978) and Suspiria (Dario Argento, 1977).
