Today was awesome. I got to go on Fox KABB to promote Doctor "S" screening at the San Antonio Film Festival. Thanks to Adam and Fox...YAY....GO CHECK OUT THE FESTIVAL, I DEMAND IT!!!

Film Classics Productions is proud to announce that its feature film "Doctor S Battles the Sex Crazed Reefer Zombies: The Movie" has made it into its first film festival, The 2009 San Antonio Film Festival! 

This is an extremely exciting opportunity and I am honored our film has been chosen to screen. This year is looking to be awesome. The festival will be screening films from around the world as well as some of the best San Antonio Local boys. 

I am personally excited to screen Doctor S as it allows for a new audience to find us and our little crazy zombie film. If you have seen this film in the past and if its been a while I can guarantee you a whole new experience.

Where Back

Film Classics is back from the Cannes Film Festival Ladies and gentlemen....and it was out of this world. My whole life I have seen the festival in papers and on tv and at no point had I ever imagined I would actually be there. It as grand and as beautiful as you would imagine it.

The festival is like a candy store and I am a fat kid. I went into a film binge and it was worth every moment. People from around the world walked the building. There where films playing all day every moment. I myself caught one Cannes festival and two market screening films...oh yeah the Cannes film market was going on at the same time. Its like a flee market with unsold films. It was cool to find the distributors of some of my favorite films.

The screening of Four Minutes Till the End was fast and amazing. I sat down and my head was spinning with excitement as the lights dimmed. Before I knew it the screening was over. After that I meet some new friends who took part in the 48 hours but who I had never meet. Most of my time was spent hanging out with John Jackson of Aidin 5. Cool cat. Good times.

The cherry on top....we where in France on the Riviera...not to shabby from a kid from Brownsville and a small time filmmaker in San Antonio.

Sadly to say the day I left they where screening both Inglorious Bastards and Drag Me to Hell...DAMN YOU TIME!! That's ok because one day i will run into one of my heroes Sam Raimi. Well I will participating in this years 48 Hour and I would love the chance to go back again know that I know how to work the festival.


Till next time ladies and gentlemen...I hope to see you soon.
