The Ghostbusters director volunteered his Tuesday night to mentor eight women in the film industry, each hailing from a different discipline. The woman are members of the non-profit Cinefemme – a group of key creatives that work to connect female filmmakers and foster opportunities to greenlight their films.
Watch Feig talk about the organization in the video below.
The Dinner with Dames event is one such opportunity. Writer/director and program director Jenna Payne and writer/director and Cinefemme Executive Director Michelle Kantor started the intimate gatherings last September and has been able to snag mentors like Simon Barrett (The Guest, You're Next), Zoe Bell (Camino, The Hateful Eight), Dean Cundey (Jurassic Park, Back to the Future), Vicky Jenson (Shrek, Shark Tale), [link...

There's no denying the popularity of "The Walking Dead". When we were first reading Robert Kirkman's comics, we knew this tale was nothing short of genius. As a result zombies have now infected every aspect of pop culture. Especially comedic parodies which range between comic genius to wow, what bullshit. This one, however? Chicken fried gold!
Below you'll find "The Walken Dead" from director Ryan Hunter starring Taige Jensen, Trevor Vaughn, Melodie Sisk, Veronika Dominczyk, Ryan Hunter, Renaldy Smith, Jon Mantzke and The Walkens - Neal Bledsoe, Will Connell, Justin Morgan, Trevor Vaughn, Ted Schneider, Scott Skolnick, Matt Imparato, Daniel Kelleher, Jenna Payne, and Ryan Hunter.
Time for a heaping helping of brains served with a healthy dosage of cowbell. Dig it!

El Monstro Del Mar, the Australian underground monster movie directed by Stuart Simpson that’s been making waves on the festival circuit this year, has won the Best of Fest award at NYC’s Royal Flush Festival, which was held at the world-famous Knitting Factory on Oct. 11-18.

Three female hired killers hide out in a sleepy seaside village, only to awaken a monstrous creature that rises from the ocean’s depths to feast on human blood.
