I’ve known this for awhile. He talks about something near and dear to a few of us that love monsters and horrorific goodness.
…Insomnifest, the world’s first Online Horror Movie Festival.
12 movies are featured in the fest, which runs from Feb. 11 thru Feb. 24. The web site for the fest boasts a mega-trailer from most of the movies. I’m thinking this is not the kind of festival one attends hoping to meet the people who actually made these movies or the fans who seek them. At least they did not call it Splatterfest or Cheesefest, but perhaps they could have. And I don’t recommend you use your computer at work to bask in the buckets of fake grue.
But you don’t have to stand around in the snow like at Sundance, or wade through the beautiful people.
See, I told you.
I’m waiting on Joe to cure halitosis, teach dogs to speak and advise me on how to cook a dinner without ever entering, and alas, blowing up my kitchen.

So it’s like an online version of that After Dark Film Festival that they’ve been occasionally trotting out, except this one has what I hope are full-length movies?

‘Coma, you flatter me! I only know everything about movies. I is mostly clueless in the non-movie world.
And yes, Ron, these are full length. Some from Asia, one from the Netherlands, I think it was, and a few American ones. Sort of looks like moves that couldn’t even get distributed via After Dark. But hey, it’s only 5 bucks a movie.
And ya know, I meant to write up this week about the worst-looking and most-tasteless remix of the zombie movies I’ve seen lately — “Special Dead” - zombies attack a camp for Special Ed kids. As ‘Coma says, that can’t be of the good.

Special Dead is absolutely insulting to both zombies and the mentally disabled.
