"Defiantly independent and deliberatly scandalous"
- Michael Willmington, Chicago Tribune
 
"A cultural mainstay"
- Ray Pride, Filmmaker Magazine
<http://www.filmmag.com/winter98/festroundup.html#chicago>
 
"If you care at all about the state of culture on the margins, this is
probably the most important project in the country reflecting its
evolution"

"The biggest and best of the subterranean screen-events"
- New York Independent Film Monitor
 
"I'd like to think the work Chris and I did at Film Threat helped
inspire the lunatics behind CUFF but now they're the ones inspiring
me... Not just a great "underground" fest but a great film fest period"
- Dave Williams, former editor Film Threat Video Guide
