I’m sure I’m the last to hear about Xtranormal, the site where you type a script and it instantly renders a movie. Man if I was 12 I would be completely obsessed with this. As it is, I think my test film above will be my last…. Related posts A Town Called Panic (0) Revolver [...]

We caught this stop-motion movie at the Portland International Film Festival (PIFF!) on Sunday. It’s terrific, really kooky and quite funny, good for kids and adults.
