Tucson and Phoenix: Prepare to be rocked, shocked and defiled. Blasting its way into its third — and biggest — year on Sept. 18-25, the Arizona Underground Film Festival is a cacophonous concoction of angry transsexuals, bumbling hit men, slacker superheroes, living dolls, aliens, dead hookers, adventure-seeking blondes and other crazies.
This year the fest is screening 30 feature films, some of which are making their U.S. and even world debuts. The opening night film is the U.S. premiere of the German hit man comedy Snowman’s Land, directed by Tomasz Thomson,while closing the fest is the controversial and violent A Serbian Film by Srdjan Spasojevic, which you have to be over-18 to get into.

Clemency Movie Poster 2010
Director: Joseph Albanese.
Writers: Joseph Albanese, and Charlie Frazier.
Clemency is an eighteen minute short from first time director Joseph Albanese, which was completed in October, 2009. The film was shot primarily with an Arriflex BL4 35 Mm camera and the colourful visuals are heightened by a thrilling tale of a serial killer, legal loopholes, and vengeance.
The movie review site Horror Society describes the psychotic Poe as "a delicious cake plate of creepiness with a side of sociopath," (Horror) and Poe's ability to "play" with the character Sarah is what makes this film so enjoyable (Clemency). The mystery and tension are built early with Sarah and sister Melody attempting to escape a nighttime pursuit from Poe, but events do not end well for Melody nor an innocent bystander. Clemency flash forwards several years and surviving sister Sarah gets a chance to question Poe's motives. Poe has escape the...
