THE CINEFORUM EXPERIENCE: LAST NIGHT I DREAMT I MET REG HARTT
Since 1992, eccentric archivist Reg Hartt has opened his doors to lovers of rare film. With a screening room in his front parlour, he welcomes any and all curious visitors. You will know his house when you see it. There is a red neon sign in his window that blinks “Cineforum”, a Greek inscription above his door that reads “Abandon all hope, ye who enter here”, and a cast of mysterious characters that lurk in the shadowy background. Two weeks after granting us an interview, a pile of crumpled notes were found on our office doorstep, and we have dutifully transcribed them for you, on fear of mystic retribution. Enjoy.

Romero, of course, started the zombie craze with 1968’s no-budget classic Night of the Living Dead.

Cooperation, Chemistry, and Corporate Ethics
Teamwork is a challenge for anyone, particularly within corporate environments where the pressures of time and budget are often a big consideration, along with developing client relationships and attempting to blend often wildly different personality types. In the new film Eating Buccaneers, released in Toronto on October 16th, the challenges of teamwork are taken to a whole new level.
