| WELCOME TO CINEMUERTE 2005!
Western Canada's premiere genre festival is back
with more thrilling premieres than ever before, as well as
an exploitation all-nighter that will shake your perception
of the world. Seriously. You'll be crying for your
mommy by the time the festival is over!
FINAL UPDATE!
Thank you to all who attended the final year of CineMuerte! It was a fun year, and I was happy to show some of my old favorites on the big screen, like VICE SQUAD and CLASS OF 1984 (Whoever gave VICE SQUAD a ONE on the voting ballots needs to get a clue, for real). And I think for the first time ever, I did not lose thousands of dollars! (Thank you, Buffy). And a big thank you to all my volunteers: Robin, Yannick, Sage, Mariko & BJ, Aliza, Alex D & Alex C, Kelly, Dmidtrui, James and Nick! And of course my evil cohorts Sam & Danielle!
But I imagine the following results are what you've been waiting for:
