DZFF Officially Open For Submissions

Drunken Zombie International Horror Film Festival

The fifth annual Drunken Zombie Film Festival is now open for submissions! We are celebrating our
5th year of showing independent horror films to a horror audience that is hungry to see something
outside of the studio system that can tap into the horror life line and bring them a great experience they
have been craving. We show all types of horror films and not just zombie films which some take our
name to imply. So whatever type of horror film you have feel free to submit.

Our submission process is easy. Head over to the website, www.drunkenzombiefilmfestival.com, fill
out the online submission form, and mail it off with your movie. It’s that easy. No entry fees. No
complex rules. If you want your horror film seen by an audience that is craving the next great horror
film then this is the festival for you. We are looking for feature films, short films, music videos,
trailers, etc. Anything you got we’ll take a look at. The deadline for submissions is August 31st, 2012.
Our film festival is taking place on November 2-3, 2012 at Landmark Cinemas in Peoria, IL. Have
your film Slay In Peoria!

This is our fifth year running our convention and have had a great time showing off some films that
have gone on to great success. Some of the past films we have shown are Dead Hooker In A Trunk
(DZFF2010), The Taint (DZFF2011), Zombie Apocalypse (DZFF 2008), Trippin’ (DZFF 2010), and
The Selling (DZFF2011). We present a well rounded list of films from straight up scary to horror
comedies to the full on surreal.

For further info on submitting films and keeping up with news, sponsorships, and more visit
www.drunkenzombiefilmfestival.com or email filmfestival@drunkenzombie.com.

Praise For The Drunken Zombie Film Festival:

“The Drunken Zombie Film Festival is run by a group of diehard horror fans who’s only desire is to
help out indie filmmakers and that passion shines through in their treatment of your work, their
interaction with you (the filmmaker), and their enthusiasm overall. I am very happy to support DZ as
they have been more than supportive of my career over the years and are one of the reasons I have fans
across the world.”
Tony Wash – Director of It’s My Party And I’ll Die If I Want To (DZFF2008) and A Chance In Hell
(DZFF2011)

“We had the distinct pleasure of having our film, “The Feed”, screened at the 2011 Drunken Zombie
Film Festival. Though unable to attend due to a work conflict, I had a number of people write to us
saying how much they enjoyed the festival and our movie. Not only that, but a podcast was released
shortly thereafter where a whole group sat around discussing the fest – and our film – in great detail! It
was fantastic to hear. We rely quite a bit on social networking to keep our fans up to speed on our film’s
progress, and the 2011 DZFF, as well as their devoted followers, allowed us to post many, many
updates. We look forward to submitting our next work as well as attending!”
Steve Gibson – Director of The Feed (DZFF2011)

“DZFF makes a real effort to reach out to its filmmakers, in order to help them connect with each other
and with industry. That’s why I’ll keep sending my films to DZFF. Also, their name is really cool.”
Chris Walsh – Director Of Fitness Class Zombie (DZFF2011)

Basically these are the people that will be on hand to do Q&As after their films.  Which is why I included myself.  Yeah I’m that egocentric.

The Final Slew Of Films

And here we go.  These five films will complete our line up for this year.  Going to be a great year everyone.  First up:

Toxic Lullaby is the story of Eloise, who wakes up in a destroyed, life-threatening world after a bad drug trip. Separated from her friends, she learns to survive in a bizarre reality. The world around her is chaotic. She learns that this situation originated in a financial crisis and the following speculations about the last food recourses – and the complete destruction of the latter. In addition, the use of biological weapons spread a virus among the human species – causing them to become dangerous mutants (sleepers).  In this desperate situation, she joins a group of people, who, like her, are motivated by the longing to flee this nightmare.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

On the darkest night of the year, when Satan is allowed free reign to walk the earth, a motley crew of Satanists kidnap a sharp tongued southern waitress to be a given up as the Dark One’s bride and mortal host of the antichrist.   But when her rowdy redneck friends botch up the ritual in a violent rescue attempt, all of hell’s fury is inadvertently transferred into the most unlikely of hosts: a sacrificed chicken!  Now, the Satanists and Rednecks battle one another as an evil most fowl threatens to swallow their souls and transform them into a demonic army of the walking dead!  Who will survive the terror of Zombeak!?

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Have you ever talked on your cell phone in a movie theater?  If so beware as someone may come to take revenge when you least expect it.

 

 

 

 

 

A short tale of the undead. It’s the little things that getcha.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Le Blanc C’est Le Meilleur:

When you are a zombie used to eating businessmen on prestigious golf courses and that you have never come across a black man, you might think twice before eating a lost wanderer with darker skin … But cooking is yet again a field of discovery and creativity… So … let’s forget about habits and fork out !


There is no trailer for this so enjoy this weird video that has french zombies in it.
