No horror film festival could be complete without a film about Zombies. And we know that Vancouver has a particular passion for the phenomenon (Zombie Walk, anyone?).

As part of the line up of films for tomorrow night’s Viscera Film Festival, Lori Bowen’s ‘Aftershock’ is a zombie short … so be ready!  And Lori is coming all the way out from Florida to be here at the film festival!

The Vancouver Viscera 2012 Film Festival, brought to you by Curio Media, will be the first time this festival screens in English speaking Canada, and what better city than horror, goth, geek and zombie central, Vancouver?  

Join us on the year’s first Friday the 13th, to watch a bunch of horror shorts made by the most talented women filmmakers in the world.

I don’t believe the necessary scientific equipment has been invented, that can accurately measure the minuscule fraction of time between the moment when the light turns green, and when the driver behind you starts honking.
