Also in today’s Horror Highlights: Ray Harryhausen: Special Effects Titan Blu-ray / DVD release details, info on Europe’s 4K Uhd Blu-ray release of The Texas Chain Saw Massacre, and a Q&A with Restoration director/co-writer/co-star Zack Ward.
Exclusive: Watch the Short Film For My Facebook: Press Release: “It all started with a funny image that popped in writer/director Carl Kelsch’s head: a play on words that yielded the final shots of ‘For My Facebook’ (To say more would spoil the ending). With only a few directing credits under his belt, he recruited jack-of-all-horror-trades Louie Cortes (Dir. of Attack of the Brain People, writer of Blood Slaughter Massacre) to do Sound. Kelsch, who also operated the camera, got input from Cortes on blocking and framing.

Regardless of how you feel about horror anthology films, it’s obvious that they aren’t going anywhere. And why would they? The format allows for nascent filmmakers to flex their chops on a short segment before feeling the pressure of a full feature; and given that the short story is the most prominent and effective form of horror (just look at the masters: Poe, Lovecraft, Matheson), it also provides the opportunity to experience these tales visually without stretching them thin to reach standard film length. It’s like reading a literary magazine from cover to cover: different styles, different effects, different scares. I’m all for it.

Fango contributor Jeremiah Kipp sent along some photos and info on Contact, a new genre short film he created for New York City’s annual Sinister Six festival, hosted by Bryan Enk every October. “This is the final incarnation of the fest,” Kipp tells us, “and since I kicked it off four years ago with my movie The Pod, I decided to go all-out and do another harrowing drug/body-horror project.”
This year’s Sinister Six will be presented Saturday, Oct. 31 at 8:15 p.m. and Sunday, November 1 at 5:15 p.m. at Millennium Film Workshop (66 East 4th Street). Kipp describes Contact, shot in black-and-white hi-def, as “a dark urban fairy tale, a kind of reboot of The Pod distilled down to the most intense, graphic elements. I thought of the movie as an emotional hand grenade about a young woman [Zoë Daelman Chlanda, from Alan Rowe Kelly’s I’LL Bury You Tomorrow and Bart Mastronardi’s Vindication] who runs away from suburbia to engage in the...
