Deadspiel 7min
In the pantheon of the Zombies in Sports subgenre, none
have come close to capturing the gritty realism of life and
(un)death in the sometimes ugly world of small town curling
as DEADSPIEL. Chronicling the epic struggle for playoff
survival between the human Team Olmstead and the once
human Team Romero, this film transcends the confines of
its genre to tell a tale of hope and acceptance and remind
us all of the simple beauty of a rock sliding down a sheet of
bumpy ice.
Cast: Daniel Rose, Matt Olmstead, Chris LeSauvage, Jeff
Stevenson, Joe Frans, Mark Constantineau, Peter Higgins,
Stewart Craven
Writer: Jay Molloy (Co-Writer), Pat Corcoran (Co-Writer,

Rising up:
The Story of the Zombie Rights Movement
28min
Rising Up, a ground-breaking 'documentary', tells
The story of the oft-neglected zombie rights movement of
the 1960s. In the early part of the 20th century, zombies
were killed for assembling in public, exploited as crash test
dummies and abused by the cosmetics industry. Few
people knew about their plight, and even fewer cared.
Through contemporary interviews and historical footage,
Rising Up takes us from the movement's humble origins in
the beatnik communities of Pittsburgh to the height of its
popularity where zombies, human protesters and an
enigmatic leader take Washington by storm.
Cast: Kevin Allison, Kirk Larsen, Rae C. Wright, William
Broderick, Phil Lamarr (Voice-Over)
Writer: Brendan O’Brien (Co-Writer), Hugh Mackey (Co-
Writer), Laura Moss (Co-Writer)
Director: Laura Moss
Producer: Geoff Celis, Brendan O’Brien (Coproducer),

Finale 93min
A family descends into a vortex of denial and paranoia
after the death of the oldest son. Though labeled a
suicide, the bizarre circumstances lead the mother to
believe darker forces are at work. He threw black paint
over everything reflective in his decrepit Victorian house
and set an explosive trap in his bedroom. A woman from
his past haunts the cemetery where he lies buried. But
when the mother's investigation threatens to ruin the life of
her teenage daughter and possibly her own sanity, she
realizes there is but one escape from this nightmare - the
very route attempted by her dead son. Finale captures
mystery, horror and suspense in the colorful visual style of
the 1970's Italian gialli.
Cast: Carolyn von Hauck, Suthi Picotte
