Tuesday, June 10th, 2008, the Hollywood stars were out for the gala premier of M. Night Shyamalan’s THE HAPPENING - heart-pounding paranoid thriller about a family on the run from an inexplicable and unstoppable event that threatens not only humankind . . . but the most basic human instinct of them all: survival.

– Saturday, April 26th, once again it is a gorgeous day in the City. Our day starts even earlier as we’ve got some time booked at the press office to take in some shorts, four feature films, and the New York Film Commission Party at the Target-Tribeca Filmmaker Lounge. In fact, a long day as we covered the Red Carpet fro the World Premier of Dying Breed. The first feature of the day is Killer Movie.

- Saturday, April 26, 2008, the stars were up from down under for the gala screening of the new horror film DYING BREED that was held at the Village East Cinemas. Director Jody Dwyer’s feature debut utilizes the legendary true story of Alexander Pearce, an escaped convict known as "The Pieman," who claimed to have survived by eating his fellow escapees. Also driving the plot is another legend, the Tasmanian tiger, thought to be extinct but there continues to be report sightings of this elusive creature. The film stars Nathan Phillips (Wolf Creek) and Leigh Whannell (SAW) walked the red carpet in support of the premier.

- Friday, April 25th, was a gorgeous day in New York City. A day better spent out doors than in a movie theater. Still, the film junkies were out in mass to consume the cinematic fare being offered at the 2008 Tribeca Film Festival. We got to enjoy a bit of the day, savoring the morning, as our screening day began at noon with The Wild Man of the Navidad.
