"Picnic of the Living Dead" screening in Berlin!

Hello Party People!

The "Picnic of the Living Dead" gravy train just keeps chugging along. Next stop: Berlin. The 2008 Trash Film Festival. Details can be found here.

I probably won't be able to make it but if you're in Germany and like films that aren't afraid to get down and dirty, check it out.

"Picnic" will be shown at Zombie Fest 2008!

Hello Party People!

"Picnic of the Living Dead" will have it's international debut at Zombie Fest 2008! I got an e-mail a couple of weeks ago from the organizers of the event asking if they could show "Picnic of the Living Dead" along with a couple of other shorts and I agreed (of course).

Zombie Fest features " zombie films, guest stars, games, shooting and archery with zombie targets and of course, The Zombie Experience…" (from their website). The Zombie Experience is a live action role playing scenario in which some people are zombies, zombie hunters, victims, etc.

If you're in the UK, check it out. If you're not, then take the weekend off and book an airline ticket to awesome.

Picnic in High Res!

Also, look for a BIG announcement soon about "Picnic!"

Blogs of the Living Dead

I wanted to take a moment to highlight some blogs that have said some pretty nice things about "Picnic."

First is "Undead Backbrain." This is a pretty neat blog by Robert Hood that seems to split its time evenly between zombies and kaiju. Which is fine by me. Check out what Robert had to say about "Picnic" here.

The second blog is from Germany, Doktorsblog. Now I don't know German, but a friend tells me it's a competition amongst several bloggers as to who can come up with the craziest online video clips and apparently "Picnic" made the grade. Sweet!

Finally, Zombie Pages put a link to "Picnic" on Brightcove. What I think is funny is that the next short film they highlight is "Brunch of the Living Dead." There seems to be a wave of meal-themed zombie films. Well, zombies' gotta eat.

NOW SHOWING

ONLINE PREMIERE TONIGHT

Tonight begins the online blitz for my monsterpiece "Picnic of the Living Dead." It's been a long time coming (although not as long as some other projects...sigh...), but trust me, it's good. Anyway, I'll be putting on YouTube, Brightcove, and IFilm this weekend, and then laying siege to the various blogs and news sites out there that might be interested in it. As for film festivals, there's one I have my eye on and stay tuned regarding a theatrical showing in the Metro area.

Finally!

It's finished. Now begins the process of submitting to film festivals. It should be online soon.

It's Alive!

The Rough Cut is Finished! A few more tweaks and this little zombie is ready for Prime Time.
