Head to the Film & Television Institute's (FTI) cinema on October 28 for a special horror film screening and the opportunity to network with local filmmakers. Directors Wade K Savage and Damien Gigliette will be at the event and host a Q&A session following the screening of their films The Dead Wastes and Trespass. Read on for more information about the films screening.
Local Focus is FTI's new screening program that highlights local films and investigates the filmmaking process with a post screening Q&A.
Come in costume and have your photo taken with the characters from The Dead Wastes as you network with WA's local industry in a life-like horror scene set in the FTI Hall. Best costume wins "A Week of Frights" DVD pack.
The full line-up of films include:
The Dead Wastes (Premiere screening)
In a long dead world, a young woman puts herself to the ultimate test. Does she have the ability to overcome an opponent who has already died long ago?
Written and directed by Wade K Savage.
Trespass (Premiere screening)
A quiet night in the woods is interrupted by a group of youths who are out for some extreme entertainment. After some off road driving, poor judgment and a cruel practical joke, someone is now aware of their presence.
Written and directed by Damien Gigliette.
Tinglewood
When the McCallum family set up camp in the Tinglewood Forest for a family vacation, they encounter an unknown force that leads to a violent battle for survival.

Written and directed Alex von Hofmann and Antony Webb.
