SXSW |4:42 AM|
I just got back from the post-screening festivities. An official selection of the South By Southwest film festival, no less.
Of course, the movie was about a disease. A disease causing poultry to tear its way out of people's asses. High art indeed.
Laughter is welcome, but it is still an "Official Selection". We get to use the seal and everything. My director submitted a bunch of films to
Reel Women, among them a cheesy romance, an experimental horror movie, some other film, and chicken ass. The woman in charge of Reel Women was up in Dallas showing her sick mother the selections on a DVD player, and when they reached our film they "keeled over laughing". I assume when they described the keeling over, it was not actually lethal. The mother insisted that the movie be in the festival, and the family has apparently been talking about it all day.
Bitchin'.
The movie also got into "Horror Dance" down in Houston, so I might travel down there for gripping and grinning, glad-handing, networking, power-lunching, all that manner of grabass-ery.
Hell of an evening.

Good work. Being in s x sw is probaby worth the loss of the $60 Expressmen pants the chicken came through. I'm proud of you.
The least you could do is provide a link to the website for the movie. Sheesh.
Bitchin' indeed.
