It’s almost time for Halloween, and who better to celebrate the creepiest month of the year with than Mr. Hitchcock himself? And why wait until December to start getting gifts? We think every holiday should come with presents. That’s why we’ve combined a full schedule of what we think are Alfred Hitchcock’s creepiest, scariest most bizarre films with our HITCHCOCKtober Contest.

QFest is in town (Houston-town)! Their first annual “Show Us Your Shorts Competition Compilation”, featuring 2007’s best queer-themed submissions is just one of the 19 films that make up this year’s gay-themed festival. Always edgy and relevant, QFest’s lineup includes DAFT PUNK’S ELECTROMA, where the always inventive French electronica duo (think Kanye West’s recent, universally appealing single “Stronger”) try to turn their crazy robotic alter-egos into real flesh and blood. Music fans should also come out for PICK UP THE MIC, an energetic investigation of “homohop” and the tenacious rap-artists keeping the genre alive.
The festival also features an adaptation of the college lit class staple THE PICTURE OF DORIAN GRAY, RAY HILL’S PRISON SHOW, a fascinating documentary from gay-rights activist, ex-prison inmate and Houston native Ray Hill, and a few “After Dark” selections that I cannot write about here except to say don’t bring your kids.
QFest begins tomorrow, September 20 and runs through Monday, September 24. For synopses and a full schedule, visit QFest’s official site.
The 9th Annual Vistas Film Festival is coming to the Angelika Dallas tomorrow, September 19.

The Vistas Festival has always been a mainstay in Dallas so be sure not to miss it. For a full schedule of events, click here.
…Sounds more like a coffee drink but we’ll take that as a “two thumbs up!” Don’t miss this adorable love story between a quintessential Brooklynite and a Kurdish refugee now playing @ the Angelika Dallas.
