Hello Everyone !!! We would like to invite you to another film festival in Chicago coming in September. Some scheduled acts to appear are as follows:
CHICAGO HORROR FILM FESTIVAL 2008 LINE UP
Svengoolie has recently been added to the Chicago Horror Film Fest Line-up. He will be appearing Saturday, September 27th from 3 - 5 pm.
Tiffany Shepis announced as a guest at the 2008 Chicago Horror Film Festival. Tiffany will be attending the festival in support of not 1, but 2 of her latest films. We have already announced that "Dark Reel" will be showing at this years CHFF, but we will soon be announcing another Tiffany Shepis film to be shown.
Sounds like Tiffany is trying to take over!
Tiffany has been in over 60 horror films and has been named the Princess of Scream. She has done nearly everything in horror film, from Troma Films with "Tromeo and Juliet" to Some of this festival's favorites; such as Nympha (shown at the 2007 Chicago Horror Film Festival), Dark Reel, Bonnie and Clyde Vs. Dracula, and Nightmare Man.
New York-born, Tiffany Shepis has become a princess of scream. In her films she often upstages more seasoned actresses and has some great dance grooves. Can be seen at shows like Chiller and will obviously make the move from indie schlock to mainstream films as time goes on and a good agent looks after her career. She's been involved in filmmaking since the ripe old age of 12 and has appeared in numerous videos with people like Lil' Zane, Wu Tang Clan, Dexter Holland, Run DMC and Destiny's Child video "Nasty Girl", but this particular video was never released. Tiffany also shot a spot for Nintendo but it was pulled for being too (Janet Jackson-like) raunchy. She loves blood and gore but detests violence and is a very good reason why men prefer brunettes.
So Come on out and meet this starlett at this years festival!
The Chicago Horror Film Festival will hold its annual event on S
Emmanuel Exitu’s documentary film “Greater – Defeating AIDS” (Audience Award of New York AIDS Film Festival) has also been accepted at Babelgum Online Film Festival. I worked to this project as camera operator and post-production editor.
This documentary tells the life and people of Meeting Point International in Kampala slums (Uganda) with an innovative, fluent and dynamic style through the stories of Rose, Vicky, Veneranda, Josephine and the other women and how AIDS can be crushed.
The winner will be chosen by Spike Lee among 5 documentary films the most rated by Babelgum users, so we have the chance to show the great artist, as Spike Lee is, that great miracle of joy and conscience of their own infinite value and dignity.
