There’s a great write-up about us in today’s Waco Tribune! It’s titled “Dark Mirror fest offers 6 horror films,” and the Web version is behind the Trib’s paywall, so we can’t link to it directly. But you can read it on the Web if you’re a subscriber, or in the print edition, which is of course available everywhere in the Waco area. We can tell you that entertainment editor Carl Hoover does a fine job of describing the theme and nature of our 2011 film festival, as seen in these snippets:
The second Dark Mirror Horror Festival moves inside in more than one way this year with a slate of six films screened for free today and Saturday at McLennan Community College’s Lecture Hall. Last year’s debut featured film screenings on consecutive weeks at MCC’s outdoor Bosque River Stage. Turnout was encouraging, but organizers Matt Cardin and James Kendrick opted to move the festival inside this year and cluster film showings to make it easier for filmgoers to attend … The first Dark Mirror festival examined how horror movies reflected the societal fears and concerns of specific decades — the “dark mirror” of the festival’s title — but this year’s version takes a look at more internal, individual fears with the theme “Horror and the Soul” … Friday’s film selections share a common thread of monsters or supernatural beings inhabiting a shadowy, post-death territory … Saturday’s movies examine the loss of a person’s soul or personality to an outside force.”
Thanks, Carl!
