That means that all directors of all films will be on hand this evening.

As usual we are running a little behind. But have no fear. Tickets should be going up today for sale through boxofficetickets.com (or this weekend). Notifications for final selections for films will be done today! Director Stuart Gordon is attending and also very likely to be seeing the Darkest of the HIllside Thickets. We also are planing to screen The Whole Wide World at least once during the festival. Stay tuned for more news.
The judges have narrowed the field of 30 screenplays to the final six for judging in the 2010 screenwriter competition.

The first H.P. Lovecraft Film Festival® in Los Angeles was a success! Thank to everyone who came out for it, supported us, and especially, allowed Andrew to sit back, relax, and not have to deal with anything.
Yes the rumors are true... I will be retiring (or going on sabbatical for awhile), this October festival will be my last as a director. I have been running this festival for 15 years and am out of sanity points. So what does this mean? Well Aaron Vanek has started a satellite festival in LA which will become an annual event. The Portland event is in limbo until I can find someone to replace me.
Thanks to Lee Moyer and Brian Callahan and an idea from your's truly, we have our 2010 T-Shirt. What does it all mean Elwood?
