Toronto After Dark 2019 Wrap-Up

My eleventh year of attending the Toronto After Dark Film Festival has come to a close. This turned out to be a bit more of a hectic year for me and for the first time since I first became accredited media in 2012, I ended up missing one of the films, that being The Mortuary Collection, which I hope to catch up with some time in the near future. In the meantime, here are my favourite films of the festival.
