The Wrap-Up: Euro Premiere at BUTFF

October 1st, 2009 · No Comments

Just a quick note about how spectacular of a time we had at the European premiere of ALTAMONT NOW at the International B-Movie Underground Trash Film Festival in Holland.

Really, this is an amazing festival and anyone who is interested in this type of filmmaking should consider checking it out. What makes it so great? Well besides all the crazy cool films playing… this year films like Modern Love is Automatic, Sex Galaxy, Blood on the Highway, Saila, Hora, lots from Toe Tag and many more…

And the insane live performances (shout out to Aesthetic Meat Front for freaking out a bunch of horror and trash film directors).

It’s the very unique communal spirit. Everybody– from fans to performers to directors– eats, drinks, watches movies and just generally hangs out together in this random yet excellent formerly-industrial space. Totally unpretentious and fun. We met lots of great people.

And this year the hanging out included special guest of the festival John Waters! It was a dream come true, for realz. He is hilarious, brilliant and super down-to-earth.

Here’s a photo with John Waters.

Me n John

Thinking we kind of look alike, my pal Irene slightly altered it.

Me n John, Photoshop-style

Yeah.

More news soon including our DVD/digital download release (it’s about time!)
