Lucha Horror


Thank you to everybody who showed up to make Turkish Star Wars & More the most successful Evil Film School event yet!

Special thanks to Eric Fell, Dan Hershfield, Kayla Lorette, Shaun Stewart and Pearce Visser for supplying the funny during “Turkish Star Wars”. You guys rock.

Other extra special thanks go out to Shawn Conner & the Georgia Straight for their recent profile of Evil Film School. Thanks for spreading the word about our little night.

I also wanted to thank Irma & the gang at Hi-Sci-Fi for having me as a guest on their July 6th show. I had fun & look forward to hearing the podcast.

And of course, thank you to Yuriko & everybody at Blim, including their awesome volunteers for helping to make sure everything keeps running smoothly.
