October Events
We spent the weekend at EerieCon, a small local science fiction, fantasy and horror convention where I was a guest. We stayed t the Byblos Hotel on Grand Island, even though it's only a 20 minute drive, because I wanted my family to have something of a vacation before my hectic fall schedule. I was on a panel with Craig Engler, co-producer of Z-NATION, and Kaelin got to swim and play in the arcade. She also participated in the masquerade; even thogh she improvised her costume as "the Daughter of the Phantom of the Opera" in 5 minutes with a ballroom mask and spider ring (prizes at a school event), she wowed the judges with her opera singing and won an award. :) She also improvised a song to accompany another contestant's performance when the selected song failed to cue. A fun weekend.
This Friday, 10/9, The Cinefamily in L.A. is flying me out to the film festival Spectrefest (presented by Elijah Wood's company SpectreVision and the horror streaming service Shudder TV) to screen the 16m print of SLIME CITY. It will be our L.A. premiere, and I will be joined by SLIME star Robert Craig Sabin and SFX maestro Scott Coulter! That's right, 29 years after our NYC premiere, our litle gorefest ha reached the west coast. We're part of a double feature with HACK-O-LANTERN, also enjoying its L.A. premiere.
Next Wednesday, 10/14, KILLER RACK screens as part of Spooky Movie International Horror Film Festival at he prestigious American Film Institute Silver Theatre in Maryland! This is a dream venue for me, and a group of us will be driving out there for the screening and Q&A, hen turning around and driving back! A friend asked me if this event was worth 14 hours on the road, and I said "Hell, yes!"
Two days later, on Friday, Oct. 16th, KILLER RACK screens at the Eerie Horror Film Festival, at the gorgeous Warner Theatre, at 11:30 pm, following a screening of MODEL HUNGER. We're also screening on the 16th at Fright Night Film Fest in Louisville, Kentucky and in Tucson, Arizona at Tucson Terror Fest. That's right, a film I directed will be screening in three different cities on the same night.
On Thursday, 10/22 We will be making a big trip to someplace warm for another film festival; I can't announce it yet because they haven't, which is one of the frustrations of this process, but it's a great festival and we're going to make the most of our expensive adventure. Afterward, we will swing by Florida for KILLER RACK's Florida premiere at the Halloween Horror Picure Show in the Tampa Ptcher Theatre on Sunday, 10/26.
Believe it or not, I'm not going anywhere Halloween weekend unless it's to promote Buffalo Dreams Fantastic FIlm Festival. Speaking of which, this year we expanded from seven nights to eight; we're holding a special 3-D kickoff of AZTEC BLOOD at FLix 10 Stadium on Thurs Nov. 5th, before the festival proper, Nov. 6th - 12th at our regular venue, the Eastern Hills Cinemas. This year we're showing 24 features and expect to screen 100 films in total, a record for us. www.buffalodreamsfilmfest.com.
