Hi Folks,
the Yellow Fever Independent Film Festival owes a great deal of thanks to the Freak Show Film Festival in Orlando for its inspiration in pushing me forward with my creation. We attended the Freak Show last year with our first feature film - BATTLE OF THE BONE - and won the Audience Choice Award which was a fantastic achievement!
Now, the Freak Show 2009 is back and our latest feature - THE KNACKERY - has been selected to play!! The genius thing is that its scree...

we still do). So when myself and project manager Graeme Livingstone
took Battle Of The Bone to the Freak Show Film Festival in
Orlando in...
