Local Vancouver short film production company Squelch Pictures presents…
The world premier of Hell of a Wedding! If you love zombie films and/or wedding films you want to be here for this. (OK lets face it, zombie films kick wedding films in the nads any day, but I know there’s a minority of you wedding film addicts out there. Father of the Bride 2 does make a great drinking game.)
So if you want to watch a quaint wedding get F’d up by Zs, you should watch this film.

Well the past month of post production went off without a hitch. The edit was done in a record one and a half weeks and is tighter than anything I’ve ever produced. I am very proud of my editors Adina Moore and Trent Payton! They convinced me to drop some shots that, as much as I loved them, were slowing the film down. It’s a little like dropping ones child into a dumpster, never to look back but oh well, thems the breaks.
The next week and a half was spent scrutinizing the films sound and creating sound effects for it. As tedious as it is, it is amazingly fun and satisfying when everything starts coming together. And the music just brings the production value of the film to an astounding level!
The Special FX went in lastly and this was a seamless operation because my fellow cohort Alex Taylor was working on all that for a few weeks before the deadline. They are subtle and work very well. Couldn’t be prouder!
On October 3rd I actually screened the film at my friends wedding, whom I made the film for as a wedding gift. An interesting number of people at this wedding happened to love zombie films. There were about 70 people jammed in a small room watching this minor epic. They laughed (I want to say they cried but they didn’t. Not quite Anthony Minghela yet.) But everyone had a great time watching it and left people wanting more so this is a good sign.
Keep checking back to see when this film will be screened in Vancouver. It will be within the next two weeks.
