In advance of the world premiere of his new slasher flick "Savage County" on MTV2 tonight, October 7, at 11 p.m. (10 p.m. Central), director David Harris has been guest-blogging on MTV News to share some thoughts on making the film. He talked about marketing the movie on Tuesday, offered up some horror-movie-making tips yesterday, and today he introduces the up-and-coming cast (like Ana Ayora, pictured to the right).
It's pretty rare for a horror movie to get an Academy Award, and even rarer for that award to go to the cast. (Quick Quiz: Which actors have won Academy Awards for horror movies? Answers at the bottom.)
Even actors who love horror movies have to look elsewhere for their field's top accolades. But horror has been a launching ground for a lot of famous names before they were famous names: Johnny Depp ("Nightmare on Elm Street"), Jennifer Anniston ("Leprechaun"), Mischa Barton...

Oh, Cigarette Girl! I was so looking forward to watching you. I got up early, eagerly skipped to the cinema like a big girl, sat in the back row and opened my notebook. Nothing could have prepared me for how bad you are. Nothing. The festival buzz around this film was big, with the awesome premise of future smokers having been segregated from the rest of society and living in ghettos, while gangsters illegally trade cigarettes for cash, drugs and favours. Cigarette Girl is part of this world, but decides after a death in her family to quit. Quit smoking, quit gang life, and quit all the hard and hateful things in her life. The cinema was packed for the press screening - near empty by the end.
The film is...

Two highly-anticipated second feature films from U.S. underground filmmakers will be making their World Premieres all the way over at the 64th annual Edinburgh International Film Festival, which will run for twelve days on June 16-27. The films are Rona Mark’s The Crab and Zach Clark’s Vacation!.
The Crab, which screens on June 21, is the touching story of a verbally abusive man born with two enormous, mutant-like hands; while Vacation!, which screens on June 20, tracks four urban gals let loose in a sunny seaside resort down South.
Both Mark and Clark previously screened their debut features at Eiff. Mark’s Strange Girls screened there in 2008 and Clark’s Modern Love Is Automatic screened in 2009. Both films also ended up as runners-up in Bad Lit’s annual Movie of the Year award, again Strange Girls in 2008 and Modern Love in 2009. Sadly, these two masterpieces are still unavailable on...

Director/writer: John Michael McCarthy.
Cigarette Girl is the first production from Guerrilla Monster Films and the first film to also be distributed by this company. This is John Michael McCarthy's six feature film as a director and this film centrally revolves around Cori Dial's character Cigarette Girl, who peddles nicotine to a futuristic world (2035). This film will show at the Edinburgh 2010 Film Festival June 22nd and the well written narrative tale is mildly hampered by some flaws in sound and dialogue.
The film's story focuses in on "The Smoking Section" were those who choose to smoke must do so with other smokers (Cigarette). Cigarettes are $63 a pack and Cigarette Girl makes a living by selling these addictive death sticks at a cut rate price and competes with one of the biggest sellers in the district, the Vice Club. Events get a little more complicated for Cigarette Girl when...
