Vampire Zombies...From Space! is fully aware of what it is: a loving send-up packed with heavy tropes, shameless jokes, and more heart than you might expect.
Predators avoids the structural safety nets of traditional documentary filmmaking. There’s no narration guiding us toward a particular point of view, no dramatic underscore telling us how to feel.
Good Boy is a microbudget haunted house horror told from the perspective of a dog. Its premise is straightforward: Indy, a retriever with no supernatural abilities, must protect his human companion Todd from a presence only he can sense.

When I sit down with Annie St-Pierre at the Epidemic Sound Filmmaker & Industry Lounge at SXSW, I don’t expect us to start talking about Reuben and the Dark. But within minutes, we realize we have something in common – her partner plays in the band, a group I’ve seen live multiple times back in Calgary. It’s a small-world moment, but fitting, considering the film we’re here to discuss.
