Milwaukee Film's New Midnight Program

It's called Cinema Hooligante and it's the newest creation programmed by the good folks at Milwaukee Film for this year's Milwaukee Film Festival.

The 4th Annual Milwaukee Film Festival is scheduled for September 27-October 11 at a number of theaters in Milwaukee and this year we'll be staying up late to check out the "amalgamation of all things raunchy, gory, scary, fun, bizarre and possibly offensive."

Programming Manager Angela Catalano wanted to infuse a cohesive program with the passion she has for genre films. "Personally, I think this line-up is kick-a$$." Yep, that's a quote from the release.

Titles on the list for this year's program include:

Dead Weight
 part of Cinema Hooligante
Beyond the Black Rainbow, Citadel (a SXSW audience award winner), Dead Weight (lots of Wisconsin ties here), Eddie the Sleepwalking Cannibal, Klown, V/H/S, a shorts program and Mark Borchardt Presents: The Giant Spider Invasion.

The Mark Borchardt Presents title lets Milwaukee filmmaker Mark Borchardt, who many have seen as the focus of American Movie, present one of his favorite cult films. A Q&A will follow and who know what might happen.

The Midnight Film Program is just the latest announcement from Milwaukee Film, who announced their Children's Festival Line-Up in Mid August and the line-up for Passport China earlier this month.

The festival looks to be screening at the Landmark Oriental and Landmark Downer again this year and has added the Fox-Bay Cinema Grill as a third location. (Gone is the Ridge and Northshore locations from the list of screening theaters -- and that's too bad as the Ridge was like a second home for me last year).

There is much more to be announced here so stay tuned...
