Book and Serial Killer Scavenger Hunt steal the show on first night of BIFF 2.0 - By N.L. Belardes

Oh yes, I was mesmerized by the endless staircases and the mystery book of Matt Keiley's film short "Book". I got caught up in the wandering of the character and the great shots of architecture. What can I say, it also had a strange literary theme. I have to dig that.

Serial Killer Scavenger Hunt (2005) was a great profanity and gore filled film short by Raul Contreras. I found myself rooting for the serial killers who just wanted to cleanse LA while holding a rather competitive contest of the splatter kind...

There's a lot more from the Bakersfield Independent Film Festival all day long. The event concludes with a documentary on the Lords of Bakersfield and 4 contest entries for Cinema of the Lords. To be judged by N.L. Belardes, Roger Mathey, and Matt Munoz. Winners will be announced on this blog next week!

Here's a few images from the first night of BIFF 2.0:
