Jonathan W. Hickman, Daily Film Fix writes, “The Pill is the model of independent efficiency. There are no wasted parts. It’s the kind of film that should be on the IFC Spirit Award short list…”

This film shows at 7pm in the Nan and Miles Kennedy Art Center and is a no-fee event!

Bert Dennis and the New Jazz Quartet perform in the Cafe at Arts Collinwood from 8pm-11pm this evening.  Christmas Ale on tap and great bistro food is always available.

This Saturday, October 29th at 7pm, get  your Halloween spirit on with this smart, quirky independent film entitled “Zombie Dearest”.  This film is the second in a series of films being shown at Arts Collinwood in partnership with Independent Pictures.  The critics called it Creepy and Hilarious!   This film will be shown in the Nan and Miles Kennedy Art Center and is free to the public.  Art School music classics will be played in the Cafe afterwards along with some seasonal food and drink specials!

Zombie Dearest is a romantic black comedy with its very own take on the modern zombie; a scary, quirky comedy that delivers cult horror in an award-winning indie film (Winner, Audience Favorite at The First Time Film Festival in Los Angeles). What Zombie Dearestlacks in blood, guts and gore, it more than makes up for with comic characters, outrageously funny situations and memorable dialogue, making it “Frightening and Hilarious” (Dan Goldberg, producer of The Hangover ), a fun diversion for everyone from the dedicated Zombie Walk aficionado to fans of Shaun of the Dead, Fido or Zombieland. If you like your humor with a pinch of current affair, watchZombie Dearest … very independent, very original… a cult classic in the offing.  Click here for more on this creeper www.zombiedearest.com.

Hamell on Trial is a one-man punk band bringing you (mostly) loud, fast music informed by politics, passion, energy and intelligence, played by a guy with a sharp tongue and a wicked sense of humor.  2011 launches Hamell into new territory, captivating audiences not only by his award-winning performances, but also a Kerouac-esque story of social commentary through years on the road.  Ed’s live show contains no boundaries, bringing you more of his wildly genius infused rants while still being able to silence the crowd and break a heart or two. Visit www.beachlandballroom.com to purchase tickets. Doors open at 7:30pm, show begins at 8:30pm.
