Ebertfest, yo! Who's going?

Ebertfest 2013 is taking place from Tuesday, April 17 through Sunday, April 21.

Anybody else from the area want to meet up? [more inside]

Seattle International Film Festival - Whisperer in Darkness

Who's up for a drink followed by some Lovecraftian horror? Whisperer in Darkness is coming to the Seattle International Film Festival, with showings on June 3 at midnight and on June 5 at 9 - rather boringly I favour the 9 o'clock showing as I have to bve tucked up in bed by midnight but I am open to arguments.
