Edgar Wright filmfest

JoBloJoBlo

Our beloved Edgar Wright (SHAUN OF THE DEAD, HOT FUZZ) is currently up in Toronto shooting SCOTT PILGRIM vs. THE WORLD, and has decided to spend some of his downtime programming and participating in a film festival.

Aside from SHAUN and FUZZ (with Q & A session), Wright has some killer stuff on the marquee, including THE WARRIORS, SHAOLIN SOCCER, David Cronenberg’s THE BROOD, DRUNKEN MASTER 2, the genuinely awesome chopsockey gorefest RIKI-OH: THE STORY OF RICKY, Don McKellar’s underappreciated LAST NIGHT, a “SPACED” marathon, and (naturally) DePalma’s PHANTOM OF THE PARADISE.

So if you’re in or around the Toronto area, it’s a perfect time to check out some great flicks courtesy of a British genius. Scope out the full schedule, details and ticket info RIGHT HERE!
