Pittsburgh, PA – June 30, 2008 – What’s the best way to celebrate the 30th anniversary of the George Romero classic zombie film Dawn of the Dead? By holding a zombie-themed festival at the site where it was filmed.
The It’s Alive Zombie Fest™, taking place on October 25 & 26 at the Monroeville Mall in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, will be a zombie fan’s delight. “Pittsburgh has long been considered the zombie capital of the world”, says Mark Menold, organizer of Zombie Fest™, and creator, producer and host of The It’s Alive Show, Pittsburgh’s late night horror host program. “People come from around the globe to make a pilgrimage to the Monroeville Mall because of Dawn of the Dead being filmed here. It’s like a zombie Mecca.”
Zombie Fest™ will feature vendors from across the county offering collectible and hard-to-find horror and zombie-themed wares for sale; zombie films; discussion panels featuring award-winning horror writers; bands; celebrity guests; games and other fun activities for zombie fans of all ages. The events at the Mall will be open to the public and free of charge; some after-hour events are in development that will carry a nominal admission fee of which all proceeds will go to the Fest’s designated charity, the Greater Pittsburgh Community Food Bank.
“We decided that since 2008 is such a monumental year for zombie fans that we’d change our format from a traditional horror convention to a show that is accessible for everyone”, says Menold. “It will be a little different from what our vendors and fans are used to, but it’s an opportunity to reach a wider audience of zombie fans.”
On the eve of Zombie Fest™, Friday, October 24, a Zombie Masquerade Ball will be held at the Churchill Valley Country Club. The Ball will feature live entertainment as well as a DJ and will be an age 21 and over event. Prizes will be awarded for best overall costume as well as best zombie costume. There will be a separate admission fee for the Ball (to be determined).
The highlight of the weekend will be World Zombie Day™ on Sunday, October 26 featuring zombie walks with accompanying food drives aimed at raising awareness of the problem of global hunger. At press time, approximately 40 cities have signed on to participate, including New York, Philadelphia, Chicago, Atlanta, Los Angeles, Seattle, London and Hong Kong as well as cities in Canada, Australia and Costa Rica. The hub of WZD will be the Monroeville Mall walk on Sunday morning, led by Menold as Professor Emcee Square, his character on The It’s Alive Show. The prior two walks organized by Menold at the Mall earned Guinness World Records™; the 2007 walk received a Rondo S. Hatton Classic Horror Award for Best Fan Event of the year.
Menold promises a memorable time for fans who participate in the weekend’s activities. “This event is going to rock 33.3% harder than last year. I want people who come to Zombie Fest™ to be able to mingle with the guests and dance at the Zombie Ball, to play zombie games, have a chance to appear in a TV show about zombies, rock out to live bands, and to participate in another world record attempt at the Monroeville Mall. This is the location where George Romero shot Dawn of the Dead! At Zombie Fest™, you can actually be a zombie for a day. Three days, really.”

THE HORROR VAULT which has been in the works for now well over two
years will be released on April 24. It will be available from the
website www.thehorrorvault.net and the film will be shipped from the
US.
The film is an anthology and consists of nine small stories, very
inspired by the pasts Creepshow, Tales from The Crypt and ofcourse
Masters of Horror.
Check cast and crew here http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0369424/
The Horror Vault consists of nine short grueling stories about the
cruely and insanity of mankind. Hopefully you will enjoy, find the
dark humor amusing and hopefully make you wonder.
“When John Met Julia” is a modern twist on Romeo and Juliet, except
everything goes a bit wrong…for poor John anyway. Written and
directed by Kim Sønderholm, starring Claire Ross-Brown (Love Me
Forever, Pistoleros) as Julia and Kim Sønderholm (Craig, Brutal
Incasso) as John.
“Delusion” is a black/white 50ies style of horror drama, directed by
Mark Machillo, starring Jonaton Trent (Alone with her, Slaughter,
Fashion Victim), Heather Tom (The Bold and The Beautiful, The Young
and The Restless) and many others.
“Alone” is a story about being all alone in a sorority house on a dark
night. Written and directed by Kenny Selko, featuring Mandy Amano
(Ghosts of Goldfield, Coyote Ugly), Jerod Edington (Ghost Month, E.R)
and Guy Nardulli (Jekyll, House M.D).
“Mental Distortion” is a story about Pete, waking on on his floor,
about to do a gruesome find. Directed by Kim Sønderholm who also plays
Pete, supported by Maja Muhlack (One Hell Of A Christmas, Westbrick
Murders) and Barbara Zatler (Craig, Predatory Instinct).
“Dead To The World” has english actor and director Russ Diaper (Deadly
Pursuit, The Demon Within) take a stab at the Ted Bundy legend from a
new perspective. In supporting roles are Paul Kelleher (Meatcleaver
Massacre, Moonlight Murders) and Joyia Fitch (Midsomer Murders, The
Last Hangman).
“Disconnected” directed by David Boone and Josh Card is a black and
white little threat of the absurd - dark humor and crude and explicit
torture mixed in one.
“Echoes” by Gabriel Dowrick, the australian addition about a man,
waking up, tied to a bed in what seems to be a nursing home, knowing
little of what is going on.
“The Demon” by Thomas Steen Soerensen is the story about a man chased
by his own ghosts and desires, which is about to explode as he picks
up a young pretty woman hitchhiking at the side of the road, coming
seemingly from nowhere. Or is she?
Finally, “Retina” by JP Wenner starring Rachel Grubb and Heather Amos,
is a black and white and extremely absurd and nihilistic story about..
well - you’re the audience - you decide! 
Film is now available from http://www.thehorrorvault.net/
