There were two competing local film events in Lincoln last night, the indie horror flick Return to Horror House that I posted about earlier, and the “Homegrown Film Festival” at the newly re-opened Bourbon Theater (formerly the State Theater). Both events were free to attend.

I was set to go to the Joyo for Horror House but changed my mind yesterday, for some inexplicable reason. I met up with Mat and we went to the Bourbon for the Homegrown fest downtown.

It was complete and utter bullshit. Fuck film students. Fuck Lincoln’s non-genre indie filmmakers. Those abortions you retched up onto the screen were insulting. You guys all suck and you wasted my night.

I heard back from some friends who went to Return to Horror House at the Joyo across town and they said the theater was nearly full and everyone had a blast watching that film. I want to congratulate the director, Dustin Ferguson, for putting on what sounds like a bitchin’ event with his Horror House screening. I won’t miss the next one.

At least I was able to brutalize Steve’s team in a match of L4D Versus later that night. Hey Steve, you can call these folks if you need someone to talk to after that game.
