Everytime I speak with one of my favorite directors I know my younger self is shaking his head in disbelief

I just spoke with one my favorite directors Jerimiah Kipp about his film version of MORTUARY ASSISSTANT. It was great. I can't wait to share

have you guys ever heard the radio sho The Man From Homicide? Dan Duryea stars as cop who speaks in Hard boiled -eze that walks the fine line between brilliantly poetic and laughly bad
There are few things like it

Never mind that MORTUARY ASSISSTANT is based on a video game, director Jerimiah Kipp has made one deeply disturbing horror film. Kipp continues to be not only one of my favorite directors but also one of the best horror creators out there. See this film

I don't have to watch any more films do I?
I mean I met my quota right?
They won't think I'm bad if I stop now, will they?

The trailer for UNDERCARD with Wanda Sykes in a dramatic role
The movie is good... Sykes is so good you'll wonder why she hasn't been doing dramas previously. She should get awards notice- but the awards won't notice her

A night of shorts and one feature -most of which I won't review for various reasons that make doing so nigh impossible- for example several are essentially blackouts where everything works to a payoff that makes the film- and keeps me from saying anything other than its simply good or not

TOUGH OLD BROADS at SBIFF is about three women who pushed the envelope and changed the world for the better. The only flaw in the film is that each of the women deserves a standalone feature of their own

THE OTHER ROE which is premiering at SBIFF is the story of the other case that was decided at the same time as ROE V WADE which looked into access to abortion. Its a great film, but there is too much material for a short so it needs to be expanded

I'm doing coverage of five of festivals at the same time (Films run now into March) and they are some of my favorite festivals- and I'm becoming shocked at how flat most of the selections are. The films are (mostly) fine but there are almost no peaks and valleys. Its all grey

And for the record the Halftime show was great.
The actual game was dull as dirt and I would have gone to bed after half time if we didn't have guests

I will have a lot of Slamdance coverage, but its going to end up as a lot of short pieces
