After a successful year on the festival circuit, the award winning and critically acclaimed documentary, CONVENTO, is having its theatrical premiere in New York City. Hobbies Odd co-produced CONVENTO with director (and long time co-consiprator) Jarred Alterman.

In this unique film, “Christiaan Zwanikken is a kinetic artist who reanimates skeletal parts & deceased wildlife with servomotors and robotics. He breeds these new species in a 400 year old monastery in Portugal.” (reprinted from the CONVENTO website)

You can get tickets for the limited-run engagement here. You can also see the trailer in our Film/TV MEDIA vault.

*It starts MARCH 9, 2012 – so you’d better hurry!*

After Alex Brook Lynn‘s short film I AM A FAT CAT took home the coveted “Best of the Fest” prize at Raindance last year, she was asked to create the festival trailer for 2011. And, in true Alex fashion, it became an ambitious project complete with car chases, special effects makeup and stunts… Amazing.

The trailer was released to the public this week. I hope you enjoy watching it as much as we enjoyed making it for you.

This journal documents my experience inside some of the country’s most notoriously haunted locations while filming a new paranormal-based reality series.

location: Linda Vista Hospital – Los Angeles, CA

My senses were on high alert after the events in the records vault. Now every sound and shadow appeared to have some paranormal significance. Of course, I am fully aware of the poisonous ability of the minds eye to manifest what one wants to see in cases like this. In fact, I found it interesting to experience this phenomena with that in an open mind…

Location: LINDA VISTA HOSPITAL – Los Angeles, CA

Easily the most haunting location thus far, Linda Vista Hospital proved one thing to me instantly: Buildings have a soul – and the soul of LVH is a tortured one…
