ScottWeinberg	post #1  on March 18, 2008 - 8:09 PM PDT   For my sixth consecutive visit to the mega-awesome South By Southwest film festival. This year they had a few cool genre titles, but the leader of the pack (by far) was Gregg Bishop's 'Dance of the Dead,' which is sorta like zombies vs. John Hughes archetypes. Funny, gory, strangely endearing flick. Ooh, also I just got to see a fantastic Spanish import called [REC]. The American remake (Quarantine) comes out later this year, but definitely keep your queues peeled for the original. (Have I mentioned [REC] in another thread? If so, sorry.) I'll have some more goodies to talk about soon, what with Philly FF and Tribeca coming up, but for now I'm exhausted from ten days in Austin. Damn what a great city.

D: Only way that'll happen is if I become a self-made genius...or a whore. I'm leaning towards the latter, but I'm told it can be messy work. Maaaan, Austin isn't even that far from Dallas. ;_; I probably have FAMILY there I could (rudely) crash with. *sobbing*
