Drunken Zombie Film Festival 2010

Press Release from Drunken Zombie

“This November 5-6 Drunken Zombie will be holding its third annual Drunken Zombie Film Festival at the Peoria Theater in Peoria, IL.  The Drunken Zombie Film Festival strives to showcase the best in truly independent horror films.  In years past we have been privileged enough to have such films as Zombie Apocalypse which went on to get world wide distribution, Outpost Doom which has been selling out on DeadLantern.Com, Night Of The Living Dead: Reanimated which has been winning awards all across the film festival market, and Don’t Go Into The Woods which was created by a couple of thirteen year old kids and it blew away a lot of people at last year’s festival.

We have announced tickets for presale on our website drunkenzombiefilmfestival.com.  For the low price of $15 weekend passes can be purchased through our PayPal account.  This is a $5 savings of buying Weekend Passes at the door.  Day passes will also be available at the door for $10 for Friday and $15 for Saturday.  There will be giveaways and Q&As with the filmmakers in attendance.  Internet horror star Lord Blood-Rah will be MCing the weekend’s festivities to really give it a horror host feel.

Lunar Eclipse

I decided to try and take some photos of the eclipse with my inexpensive digital camera. They didn’t turn out that great, but here are the ones that came out ok.
