Canada’s Blood in the Snow Film Festival Announces Its 2019 Award Winners

Alberta director Brandon Christensen and his film Z claimed the awards for Best Feature and Best Director at Blood in the Snow Film Festival’s 2019 Bloodies Awards ceremony, held with the presenting partnership of Hollywood Suite. The festival ran November 21–26, 2019, at the Royal Cinema in Toronto, Canada. Z tells the story of a young boy and his supposedly imaginary friend, and the havoc that the latter wreaks on the child’s family. Dead Dicks (reviewed here) took three awards including Best Screenplay, Best Actor for lead actor Heston Horwin, and the Montreal-based co-directors Chris Bavota and Lee Paula Springer were recognized as 2019’s Rising Stars. The 2019 Vanguard award went to Toronto director Audrey Cummings, whose film She Never Died was her third feature to screen at Blood in the Snow.

U.K.’s Horror-on-Sea Film Festival Announces Its Stellar 2020 Lineup

Horror-on-Sea returns to Southend once again in 2020 with its biggest blood-soaked line up yet of independent film as the fest celebrates its eighth year. One of the UK’s biggest independent film festivals, it was originally formed to promote independent horror films. The fest gives an opportunity to fright-fare features and shorts that are not normally played on the big screen. Taking place at The Park Inn Palace Hotel (Southend-on-Sea), the festival will run over two weekends, from Friday, January 10 to Sunday, January 12, and then Friday, January 17 to Sunday, January 19. Many of the screenings of more than 36 features and 62 shorts will include introductions by the filmmakers themselves.

Among the other announced features that I am greatly looking forward to are Peruvian fear-fare anthology Witch Tales, U.K. home invasion horror outing Nefarious,

Movie Review: She Never Died (2019)

Cast your monstrous mind back to 2015… okay, are ya there? Remember that Angry Hank Rollins vampire joint He Never Died? Well, guess what; we are taking a look at a semi-sequel to that terror tale, but it’s been all gender-swaped, both in front of and behind the camera… but more on that in a bit) as I cast my eerie eyeballs on She Never Died! Long story short, this entry focuses on the immortal Lacey (Olunike Adeliyi), a lone wolf with a major case of boredom with her never-ending existence. So what does she do to try and help her ennui? Why devouring the worst that humanity has to offer of course… which in turn causes her to battle her own demons in the process. So how does this hold up to the first, admittedly excellent, chapter? Pretty damn well! End of review. Alright, because you are surely setting on your couch literally begging for more of my wicked
