Perfect for the sweaty days of late summer, Atlanta-based filmmaker A.K. Espada has put together a night of Southern Gothic films to premiere her new short I Could Just Die, And That Would Be Alright, highlight the works of southern talents and provide a great networking opportunity for genre filmmakers in the south.
The Gothic South event will take place at Atlanta's Plaza Theatre on October 4 with screenings starting at 7pm and an afterparty starting at 10.
The synopsis of Espada's terrifyingly-titled I Could Just Die, And That Would Be Alright reads as follows:
Trying to end her life, a depressed woman allows the violent creature that roams her neighborhood at night to attack her. But her plan backfires when she wakes up the next day doomed to a life of undead immortality.
Here's the full lineup of the night:
- BRACKISH - Christa Boarini (Florida)
