In addition to the usual reviews and comments you would find on a horror movie blog, this is also a document of the wonderfully vast horror movie section of the video store I worked at in my youth.

Frontières!


I wanted to break from the reviews for a moment to give a shout out to my good friends Serena Whitney and Justin McConnell, who are pitching their feature project, Mark of Kane to investors at this year's Off Frontières at the Fantasia Film Festival

They've been preparing for this opportunity for months and have some really cool materials made up to showcase their project, like this pamphlet;




My last night at Fantasia, I also finally met filmmaker Todd E. Freeman whose been a name in my Facebook feed for months now. We both have projects in the ABC's of Death 2.5 (mine of course being M is For Manure, and his being M is for Marriage) so that was a good conversation starter. He is in Montreal because he is also pitching at Frontières. He has put all the pieces together for his next feature Love Sick, he just has to find some generous investors to back it.


Love Sick starring Tristan Risk & Francisco Barreiro.

Good luck to my peeps and everyone who is throwing their ideas out there this weekend. It takes a lot of courage to put yourself out there like that. Hopefully, the bean counters will recognize your passion and give you all that you need to make your dreams become flesh. Who knows? Maybe I'll even be there someday...
