4th Annual A Night of Horror International Film Festival
June 20th 2009 03:36
What began as an idea for a one-night event (hence the festival's name) now spans for 10 days. The 2009 festival showcased 15 feature films and 70 shorts and music videos, along with hosting parties, filmmaking forums, and a screenplay competition.
John Michael Elfers, director of the feature film "Finale" speaks glowingly of his experience at the 2009 festival: "Saying that we had a tremendous experience at A Night of Horror would be an understatement. It was our world premiere and exceeded our expectations. The festival is committed to helping independent horror filmmakers find their audience and get noticed. They put our film in the hands of distributors, reviewers, and got us on the radio. The personal attention was unlike anything I've experienced at other festivals."
Canadian producer Mike Masters agrees, "I've attended all types of festivals across the world with my film 'Reel Zombies' and my experience at A Night of Horror ranks amongst the best of them all. It will be at the top of the list for festivals to submit to with my next genre picture."
2009 Festival winner now on DVD
I KNOW HOW MANY RUNS YOU SCORED LAST SUMMER was the winner of the 2009 Horror Festival . Here's a quick breakdown of what goes on off the field.
There's a game so torturous, so excruciating, so disturbing, so boring, you'll wish you were already dead. There are many ways to die, but none more unpleasant than being ripped apart by some nutter in his cricket kit!
In a heady Australian summer, a young cricketer is hospitalised by his bullying team mates. Twenty years later he returns to wreak his bloody revenge.
Scotland Yard hotshot Kim Reynolds arrives in Sydney to assist New South Wales Detectives Gary Chance and Shane Scott in the hunt for the serial killer terrorising Sydney. The remaining team members are relocated to a safe house in Joadja Creek, unfortunately it doesn't turn out to be that safe!
One by one, in the remote Australian outback, the team members are dismissed by the moustachioed serial killer with a razor sharp cricket glove and an arsenal of sharpened stumps.
This time they’ll get to keep the Ashes!
