J-Horror Invades New York
Where else can you see Pakistani zombies, J-Horror madness, and Chow Yun-Fat all in the same place? Answer: The 2007 New York Asian Film Festival, a longtime favorite that's moving to new digs (at the IFC Center) and showing what looks to be one of their best line-ups in years. If you live in or get to New York, you can catch the J-Horror smash hit Death Note films (Japan's biggest films of 2006); the Pakistani gore epic Hell's Ground, and Kyoshi Kurosawa's latest, Retribution.




















Hi Matthew,
I've been checking out the blog recently and I love the diversity of posts and topics that you cover. I'm writing because I thought that you and your blog readers might be interested to know about Rooftop Films' screening of Murder Party, on Friday August 3rd at Automotive High School in Williamsburg. The film is a feature-length slasher horror comedy directed by Jeremy Saulnier.
Rooftop Films is a non-profit film festival and production collective that supports, creates, promotes, and shows daring short films worldwide and in a weekly summer rooftop film festival.
I hope this proves interesting and useful to you; we were hoping that perhaps you might be willing to post the link on your blog as well so that your readers will know about this great documentary.
Thanks,
Alice
