This evening the Screamfest Horror Film Festival held their awards ceremony where Toby Wilkins' Splinter took home a record 6 awards: Best Editing (David Michael Maurer), Best Score (Elia Cmiral), Best Special Effects (Quantum Creation FX), Best Make-Up (Ozzy Alverez, Danielle Noe), Best Directing (Toby Wilkins) and Best Picture). You can read our review of the creature feature here and check out the film when it hits limited theaters on October 31st from Magnet Releasing. The movie is also now available on various on demand channels. Michael Dougherty's TRICK 'R TREAT took home the Audience Award.
Wow, that is amazing that it won all those awards. I guess i definately should try to catch the film when it comes out. And if Toby Wilkins really did a good job with this movie, then i guess the upcoming The Grudge 3 is most probably in good hands.
I dont know what on demand channel(s) it is playing on, but I do know it is playing on HDNET movies on oct. 29th. I dont know what time its playing but im guessing its at either 8 or 10 pm.
CONGRATS to Toby and the movie! awesome! just one thing, PLEASE try to expedite the DVD release for those of us who can't see it in theaters OR who don't have 'On-Demand'. i'm SO dying to see this movie. i'll blind buy it on DVD, no problem.
saw splinter on comcast on demand last week, what a treat to come home from work to. i really liked the idea of seeing a film weeks prior to its theatrical release; i hope it starts a trend. the theater has become a monkey humping circus w/ all the geeks w/ their little gadgets flashing in my eyes the whole time. sometimes i fantasize about bringing a garotte wire to the movies and.., anyways splinter was pretty cool for a small movie and if you don't see it now, support it at the theaters
If anyone is in the Dayton, Ohio area, we're playing SPLINTER at the Little Art Theatre as part of our all-night horror marathon this Saturday night. http://www.ohiohorrorfest.com
OK I found the times this is playing on HDNET movies. Its plays 3 times on wednesday the 29th. The first showtime is at 8pm the next is 930pm and the final is at 11pm. So if you have this channel buying this on demand would be just plain stupid.
