FILM4 FRIGHTFEST 2009



"The films are now in place, the guests confirmed, their flights and hotels booked and the screening schedule has been worked out. All that remains to be done, is to get everything in place and ready for the big announcement on the 3rd of July. At 2.00 p.m. make sure that you check back here, because that is when we will announce what will be unspooling on the giant Empire screen, between the 27th and the 31st of August."

The FILM4 FRIGHTFEST takes place August 27th through August 31st at the Empire Cinema in Leicester Square, London. I'll let this serve as a bit of a recap for the past month, considering six of the zombie movies I've reported on are being featured in the festival. Click on the title to read the synopsis and see the trailer if you originally missed out: Paris By Night of the Living Dead, Pontypool (here and here), Dead Snow (which I've since seen and plan to review soon), La Horde (The Horde), Colin, and Zombie Women of Satan. They're also playing the Best Worst Movie, or Troll 2, which I plan on attending here at the Indianapolis International Film Festival on July 21st (information here). Outside of the zombie flicks, the two most interesting by far would have to be Tom Six's Human Centipede and Andrew Miles' Fragment, which may or may not be zombie-related. It's a bit too early to tell. To see the schedule, if you're lucky enough to live near the festival, or if you just want to read about the other movies being featured, click here.
