APRIL 18, PORTUGAL;
If you happen to be in PORTUGAL on the 18th of this month, you'll be in for a treat as PROJECT VIDEOLAB is hosting a very cool, multi-media event in honour of my main man, EDGAR ALLAN POE's 200th birthday anniversary!
Now isn't that just the coolest thing?
Head over to the blog (in PORTUGUESE, you might have guessed), and have a look around. It's all good stuff, and the poster art for the various events is nothing less than outstanding. For the even in particular, head on over to the
VIDEOLAB website and check up on the brief but informative blurb about what all is in the worls for the day. Or, you can read below:
"- In Celebration of the 200th anniversary of the American poet Edgar Allan Poe's birth, in Partnership "Alma Azul".
The main activity of the project - Videolab screenings - can take different forms, besides the film projections: debates, presentations, workshops, conferences, exhibitions, installations, multimedia shows, etc." See the show at the
Gato Vadio Cafe-Bar.

Should you manage to be around for the show, we'll be screening our stop motion version of THE PIT AND THE PENDULUM!
In keeping with the spirit of multi-media, I'd like to remind (or inform) you all we've got the comic book flying out the door like flaming rats- head over to for your own copy of graphic goodness from the fine folks at
BLUEWATER COMICS and
Things From Another World Comics
This summer I'll be selling very limited edition of the OFFICIAL T-SHIRT for the film, with art by
GHOULISH GARY PULLIN (art director for RUE MORGUE MAGAZINE). Pretty neat stuff, so be sure to check it when you can.
We've got more screenings coming your way this season, as I just got word of a slot secured in the KALAMAZOO ANIMATION FESTIVAL in Michigan, as well as a screening with a bevy of POE films at Toronto's own LUMINATO Film Festival, at the National Film Board. Very exciting stuff, indeed!
Hang tight, as I'll be posting more info on shows, appearances and news as it rolls in. 'Till Then,
Excelsior!
