A LITTLE RED HERRING...

The Hollywood version - sure to be a PG-13 yawn-fest...


Hell, you know that feeling when you're busy working on your new underground super-8 film with
a total budget of say £300 - then along comes a massive Hollywood shitbuster to steal your thunder? You don't? Well I do!

Of course there's nothing new about the Little Red Riding Hood story - I mean, 200 hundred years
and the Brothers Grimm have got the edge on me, I know... It's just such a coincidence I guess! A bit like when you see those two buses tailing each other, both heading in the same direction. Still - I know which film will be scarier - and 42 million smackaroonies aint got nothing to do with it!

So Roundeye followers - keep your ears to ground for news of 2011's best version of Little
Red Riding Hood... not coming to a Cineworld/Odeon/Vue near you soon!*

*But hopefully to the coolest film nights and underground festivals instead.

The Roundeye version - mind over money...

KOMING SOON AT KINOKULTURE

There's something of a Benny B retrospective coming up this month at the KinoKulture Short Film Night in Shropshire, with four Roundeye films being screened in one sitting. That's Getting Ready, The Return of Ellen Love, Initial Prospect and our little-seen art film The Lighthouse.

KinoKulture is an independently-run boutique cinema in Oswestry, which offers a varied programme of film screenings and events throughout the year. Our films will be shown at The Ironworks on Sunday 27th March, starting at 7.30pm. Tickets are a bargain £3!


UPDATE... We've just heard that Getting Ready and Initial Prospect have been moved to the next Short Film Night, being held sometime in May. We'll keep you updated!
