Why I Make Movies in Portland Aaron Duran
I’ve turned down the option to “Go LA” three times now: Once for school, once for no good reason, and once for a movie job. Each time it was harder and harder to stay in Portland, yet each time I turned down the chance I felt good about it. So,...

Day 2 - The HP Lovecraft Film Festival - 2005 Derek M. Koch
Yup, reprinted from Blog'D ! I got to the Hollywood on Saturday just before they opened the doors at 1:30. I had a fairly set schedule in mind for what I wanted to see today, which would have involved my sitting in front of the Upper Right Screen all night...

Day 3 - The HP Lovecraft Film Festival - 2005 Derek M. Koch

Okay, so maybe that isn’t the most appealing title for a promotional write for the Second Annual Zompire Film Festival, but it got your attention! I keep wondering if the current trend in the Zombie genre (and yes, it is a genre unto itself, as a well-crafted Zombie movie isn’t...
