WHAMMY!, Los Angeles
We are thrilled to present 2 premieres of newly made, shot-on-videotape films from Los Angeles local filmmakers! **MID/EVIL TIMES** (2025) [61 mins] In the near future, petty criminals are sentenced to act in art films in lieu of jail time. 10 years after that, groups of experimental theater students and clandestine filmmakers attempt to recreate an iconic “lost” film from this era, the mysterious, and possibly haunted, “Mid/Evil Times”… Shot on a shoestring budget with gear, locations and friends all borrowed and stolen, MID/EVIL TIMES is a broken kaleidoscope of SOV filmmaking, reflecting the horrors and joys of the creative act in a world overtly hostile towards free expression. Featuring a cast of familiar faces from the LA underground film scene, “Weener Kleener Soap”, and gratuitous Godard references, come behold this evocation of the past and questionable conjuring of the future with friends. **DISPATCH FROM L.A.** (2025) [25 mins] Walking around Los Angeles, Robert Dayton, a Canadian on an extraordinary talent visa working in the US, opens up about casting calls, making art, Canadian food and more in this report the year 2025.
