Ithaca Fantastik starts today and runs through next weekend

Ithaca Fantastik is one of the coolest genre festivals I’ve run across in the almost 8 years I have been covering film. While not has huge as something like Fantasia or Fantastic fest Ithaca makes up quantity with quality.

And quality is something they have in spades. Every year looking at the schedule I find I want to see everything. And while I may not like every film, I know why they screened everything. There is always something unique and worth seeing in every film they run.

How good is the festival? Mondocurry has made the trek from NYC for the festivities, thus shaming me greatly because I should have done the same thing.

I have no idea what to say other than if you live anywhere in the world and can get your butt to Ithaca New York you need to go.

To motivate you here are some reviews of the films we’ve seen previously

Expect a bunch of coverage of some of the other films they are showing.
