| 2003 Festival Winners |
| GOLD AWARD |
| "Edgar Allan Poe's The Raven" Director: Peter Bradley Brooklyn, New York peterbradley@trilobitepictures.com Peter Bradley brings Edgar Allan Poe's classic horror poem, "The Raven," to chilling life in a faithful, word-for-word adaptation. Based not completely in reality, but not completely in fantasy, one man's self-induced torture over the loss of his lover manifests itself and pushes him over the edge of sanity. |
| SILVER AWARD |
| "Asking for It" Director: Kevin C. Murray San Francisco, CA kevin@getawaycar.com In this short, well-produced piece, Kevin C. Murray shows us that masked intruders are not always who we think they are. The classic "cabin in the woods stalker" storyline is given a unique twist in a surprisingly humorous conclusion. |
| BRONZE AWARD |
| "Intellectual Cuisine" Director: Waylon Bacon Oakland, CA javaother@yahoo.com With an eerily gritty style, Waylon Bacon brings us into the lonely, disturbing world of his eccentric main character. This troubled man wants to be an intellectual like the group of chess players he pesters at the park. He begins killing each of them in the hopes of getting smarter by eating their brains. |
| "The Testament of Tom Jacoby" Director: Edward Martin III Tigard, OR petting.zoo@verizon.net Using only still photos as visuals, we are told the tale of six men who discover a terror in their midst during an otherwise harmless afternoon scavenging through an old mine. |
