HALLOWEEN DRIVE-IN 2010

Four people, alone in a car, park at a secluded Tampa Bay location for an evening of viewing, and reviewing, some of the creepiest horror films ever made. Soon, it will be dark outside of the car, and then, it will all begin.

On October 10, 2010, Tampa Bay Film will begin its film festival line with its very first film festival, as well as its first underground film festival. Purposely designed to be the smallest film festival in the history of Tampa Bay, with a total of four people in attendance, this tiny film festival, the 2010 Halloween Drive-In, will demonstrate that an effective film festival can be done with a minimal of resources.
The 2010 Halloween Drive-In will also be the most unique Tampa film festival of all time, with the film festival being held in a car. Much like the outdoor drive-in theaters of old, the 2010 Halloween Drive-In will screen indie films, and horror movies, while the audience relaxes in a car. The films will be screened on a portable DVD player, which will be a superior movie experience to any drive-in, however, with no bulky speakers hanging off of car doors.
The Halloween Drive-In was originally supposed to happen on October 25, 2009, but with four guests, and some last-minute cancellations from three of the four participants, it was cancelled, and then rescheduled for October 10, 2010. The original 2009 Halloween Drive-In underground film festival was created in protest to the cancellation of the 2009 Halloween Horror Picture Show horror film festival, and it was designed to be a private, underground film festival utilizing the highly creative “film festival in a car” concept envisioned by event planner C. A. Passinault. Passinault noted that a film festival in a car, held at an isolated location, would be perfect to screen horror films. After all, what could be scarier?
Originally, the 2010 Halloween Drive-In was supposed to be a radically different underground film festival, expanded from the original, but with the cancellation of the original horror film festival in a car prototype, Passinault insisted upon rolling the original concept out the following year, postponing the expanded version. The expanded version is still planned, and its debut will be announced soon after the 2010 Halloween Drive-In.
The 2010 Halloween Drive-In underground film festival, although the smallest Tampa film festival ever, will be just as effective as a large, conventional film festival, with the same amount of coverage, as well as some features of large film festivals which are relevant for the underground film festival. This film festival will have full film festival coverage, which includes interviews of the participants, a featured article on Tampa Bay Film, a review of the film festival, reviews of the screened films by the participants, an event photography shoot, and a special video of the underground film festival, which will be shown on the main Tampa Bay Film article. There will also be an extensive behind-the-scenes post on the Tampa Film Blog, and the video will be showcased on the popular, and effective, Tampa Bay Film Online Film Festival. The 2010 Halloween Drive-In underground film festival will be one of the most unique, and creative, film festivals ever done, and is expected to become something truly special, and even legendary, in time.
Although the 2010 Halloween Drive-In is a film festival held in a car, with the expanded underground film festival already in the planning stages, this first one may end up becoming one of a kind for the Halloween Drive-In series. Passinault has yet to decide what will be done in the future, and if there will be additional underground film festivals in cars; especially under the Halloween Drive-In branding as an official film festival of the series.
This is the official site of the Halloween Drive-In underground film festival, here on the Tampa Film Festivals Tampa Bay Film site. Feel free to bookmark this page, as it is the main film festival web site index, and expect the official web site, which will not share the site design of Tampa Film Festivals, to launch in October, 2010, just in time for the first film festival! Because this is a private, invitation-only underground film festival, the web site will not launch before the actual event, as marketing and promotion will be done after the fact, instead of before-hand.
