Zombie Outbreak Film Festival

ZO_8x11If you happen to be near the Portage Theatre in Milwaukee today, then you should drop EVERYTHING you are doing and head in there at 4pm for the Zombie Outbreak film festival. Not only will they be providing a series of films for you to watch, but at midnight they will be showing a 35mm reel of Return of the Living Dead, one of the legendary movies that has brought the zombie genre into the cult status that it now has.

The festival will feature 14 short films including the low budget “Colin“. As well, there will be several guest appearances, and a chance to win a “Halloween 2” poster signed by Rob ands Sherry Moon Zombie.

For more information on the festival, check out the Horror Society website.

Zombie Short Film Festival

zombieshortfilmimage2So some guys in Toronto are trying to put together a Zombie short film festival. I think that might be the most awesome short film festival EVER conceived. So, I’m posting it here.

As it stands, anyone can join. There’s a (tentative) $20 entry fee and two rules.

  1. The film must be 20 minutes or shorter.
  2. It must be about zombies (duh)

It’s in Toronto and hopefully being held at the Revue Cinema. For more information go to http://zombieshortfilmfestival.blogspot.com and check out the details. As it stands the entire event is conceptual and tenative. Without support it’s doomed to failure. So go out there, make a cool zombie film, and submit it so this can happen!

Go Zombies!
