Hear ye, hear ye!
I’m finally beginning to get my feet back on the ground after visiting the H.P. Lovecraft Film Festival & CthulhuCon last weekend.
Tranquilizer played twice, both times to nearly filled up rooms, and Tobias Enevolsen and myself had a great time with the following Q&A. We met a lot of wonderful people, both other filmmakers and artists and also a lot of fans, a category I gladly count myself as part of as well. Gwen and Brian Callahan, the brains (in jars) behind the festival, were very gracious and welcoming, and we had the best of times at the Hollywood Theatre in Portland, Oregon. If you ever have the chance to go there, I can highly recommend it!
However, if you find yourself in the position to not be able to attend the festival in person, there is also an online version, and this takes place this coming weekend, from the 18.-22. of October.
This festival will have most of the attending shorts and features, some 50 films in total, as well as some other fun stuff that you can find out more about at the festival website RIGHT HERE.
Tranquilizer will of course be playing, and if the schedule allows it (we should know in a couple of days or so), we will also have an online Q&A session there.
If you’d like to purchase passes for the online event, you can do so RIGHT HERE!
In other news – and I should probably preface this by mentioning that I’m currently part of two podcast series – I is for Investigate is closing in on its season two premiere. The trailer for this dropped recently, and can be heard on SoundCloud, Spotify, etc. Most major podcast providers should have it.
Season one, which can be heard in its entirety on the same platforms, was based on Robert Bloch’s short story The Shambler from the Stars, and season two will see the same investigative team take on H. P. Lovecraft’s Dagon, so stay tuned for that!
Here’re links to the channels on Spotify and SoundCloud.
You can also follow us on Facebook for updates and discussions.
I is for Investigate is created by Destination: Yesterday, a production company which is also providing regular readings of short fiction, with added sound effects for atmosphere. I have provided a reading of H. P. Lovecraft’s The Temple, and it can also be found on the Destination: Yesterday channels on the various media outputs.
For further information, you can visit Destination: Yesterday’s website RIGHT HERE.
Destination: Yesterday can of course also be followed on Facebook.
Hope to hear from you in the comments, and see you again for the next issue of Nilsonian Timely!
