Filmmaker talkbacks are for the 7:15pm showings Sept. 11 and 12. I'm moderating the Sept. 12 talkback. Come say hi!

Hey ya'll, wanted to give you an update on my site: we're hard launching sometime between Rosh Hashanah and Yom Kippur (I appreciate your patience!) AND I want to share this piece on BLACK ZOMBIE, an incredible work of media criticism, history, and ethnography about the zombie's Haitian origins

‘An embodiment of white fears’: how zombies went from Haitian spiritual tradition to Hollywood monsters

Maya Annik Bedward’s fascinating new documentary goes beyond reductive imagery to place the zombie and vodou in their true historical context
