Getting Ready for Halloween-?  You are requested to visit Raleigh Studio's Shreik Fest and see Chatter….come on out and be a fan. 

Certainly fans are the life and death of a new film.  Matthew Solomon's new thriller will be headlining at Shriek Fest. 

That's it. Rise from the couch and head straight to this screening.  Use social media and get all your ghouls and buddy's out as part of building up the creative economy and show your power to make all the difference.  10 days to invite your friends should be magnificent.

And Six point 9 billion dollars? This is not small stuff, but the budget of some small nations but it's the figure defining what Americans spend on Halloween. 

So Shreik Fest won't blow your budget, but this small film festival may just rattle your nerves just right and even move you to save the net (net neutrality), asking for privacy checks and assurances and even lead to voting. Scary, huh?

How we celebrate the dead and remember our ghosts…that economic barometer...is only a  sketchy figure, and not the entire amount spent on tv shows, cdc vampire diaries or microplastics in the ocean.  It's not things or thinks that are scary because you can't see them and you know they are there. Halloween is very hip and popular.

When the coroner gets eaten in the second episode of the The Strain, we know the plot before the end of the scene, but that's the point.  Halloween is a holiday where we want to be scared and enjoy it.  As a cultural addiction, it's a groovey pastime and a social event that keeps on giving.   Growing every year for retailers…..plastic blood, grease paint, decals, costumes, toxic teeth….decorations are "de rigeur".  We are a country that has made a party out of its thrillers and whether movie, monster, and cultural mish mash of ancient rites with celebration this spells out better turn out for Chatter and Shriek Fest's lineup. 

From Disneyland Resort (Diamond Celebration) to kids songs and cupcakes (https://www.youtube.com/watch?t=33&v=Pdp-wIiRxXI),  it's time to appreciate the veil between the worlds and get out your fangs and pumpkin carvers.  Consider starting to invite friends and like or share Chatter the movie on the facebook now to go with your 3d skull or mummy cupcakes and skeletal sweater.

Unlike being eaten by the thing under the bed. you can practice getting your Halloween makeup and costume just right, by reserving your October 2nd tickets for Shriek Fest online now.  Mark your calendar for Chatter on October 2^nd at 10:45pm. 

Set in Hollywood and London, this is a techno-thriller with nervous, emphasis of what is going on behind the scenes with people, while ghosts run around will disturb you and set you laughing. You can get your tickets at the link below and invite a team of friends and other fiends through Twitter, Facebook, or by email or phone.

No joke, the cast, the producers, the crew are all inviting you to help this local production that has already won an award and film festival mention to meet its potential.  Help them pick up new buzz that will lead to distribution through word of mouth, foot traffic and an increased following i.e. build expectation with each mention or click.  It's literally indie life's blood.

In the Indie Film World, the word is out calling the undead, the non working, the terror film fans, and the friends of friends to gather, and increase the audience, the buzz, the interest and the eyes who will get out and get a kick out of this modern scary conceit…help us …help them…help out, but get to the event, bring friends, and amplify the options for this cool local production with a talented team.

Like it on Facebook and share the event (www.FollowtheChatter.com)

Get into the darker side of things in a way that can build careers and reflect on the dead and dying in prep for a full dance card on the actual shriek day at the end of the month when the veil thins and we can salute the ancestors at Forest Lawn, from old Hollywood Reporter issues, or Hollywood antics and Bowl or gossip fun.

It's an era where your spin on this and attendance can make a huge difference to all of us that participated in Matty's primo project and first film.

It's not a laughing matter, but it is a cool little film made with new tech, quick thinking and sensitive direction/cutting (my role died on the editing room floor…ha, ha, ha, ha…watch for how I haunt this subject ……revenge is just one motivation thread

in the film…)

From losing Joan Collins to cancer to Joan Rivers this year, this is going to a hallowed and hopeful event and a really a great way to discover new sources of entertainment, new ways to see friends and films and have a great time. 

Come out, send your peeps, and gather at 10:45pm…it will definitely give you the creeps. Help Chatter to trend this week and keep going…it's definitely spooky and entertaining ….not unlike debating candidates, South Park, or Hamilton… the festival and the headliner are something you want to return to again and again. 

Boo-tiful and so resilient… a really class act and so sticky and tech savvy, Chatter is calendarable. Don't miss it!
