Indy Incubator Film Fest 4: It might have been one small step for Matt Kubinski and Charles Klein (creators of the incubator), but it was a giant leap for the Indy Incubator Film Fest (IIFF). The IIFF celebrated season 4 by introducing a panel of judges that critiqued each film and awarded a “best in show” at the end of the night. The panel consisted of Kathy Byrne from the Chicago Film Office, Ed Griffen from WTTW's Image Union and Matt Sardo from the Chicago Comic Vault.
As for the films themselves – another terrific harvest!!! The fest really got moving with a screening of Apocalypse Oz, a marvelous creation from cineclash productions. The film mixed elements of Apocalypse Now and the Wizard of Oz to perfection. Director Charles Klein in association with Film Beyond brought us the next highlight – Brain. The film centers on a handsome young man nicknamed – Brain, who works in the IT department of a company he does not like. One day he flips and goes out drinking….in his mind, he had the night of his life! Right before the intermission D-mob productions brought the house down w
ith their small film – Ass Periods. Not for the faint of heart, the story centers around a wish made by a girl that her boyfriend would get a menstruation period so he could see what it is like first hand. As the title suggests….the wish came true. The movie was done perfectly, highly creative and just the right shots to get some gross humor going, but stopped short of being “vomit material”. Bravo!! I was not the only person impressed with Ass Periods, as the judges declared the film “Best in Fest” at the end of the night. The second half of the fest had 2 films from Blame Society – The Death of a Pumpkin & Chad Vader 7. Both these films were of the highest quality and very creative; Blame Society really has something great going on. In all it was a great night for the movies. All the filmmakers should be proud as to should Matt Kubinski and Charles Klein. They have created a Film Fest that keeps getting bigger, better, and more creative. Great work guys!!! See you in November for Season 5.
