They find quite a few ghosts who don’t seem too happy to be found, blinding Mike by making his glasses explode and dragging the other two into the darkness.

Ventana Sur’s Blood Window, one of Latin America’s most important platforms for up-and-coming horror, science fiction and fantasy filmmaking, is headed to Cannes’ Marché du Film with seven works in progress and a new market screening premiere for buyers and film festival programmers.
Although Blood Window’s beginnings are steeped in blood and gore, the festival has diversified its offerings across recent editions, embracing films of fantasy and science fiction with increasingly political storylines and constantly bigger budgets. That’s not to say there isn’t plenty of slashing to be had in this year’s lineup with classic cabin in the woods fare like “The Shape of the Woods,” zombie slasher flick “Dead Alive” and ghost stories “Don’t Come Back Alive” and “Huesera,” but two of this year’s crop are full-on sci-fi titles: “The Last Boy on Earth” and “Alien Island,” the former set in...

Written and directed by popular Argentine genre filmmaker Santiago Fernandez Calvete, “Vurdalak Blood,” based on Alexi Tolstoy’s short story “The Family of the Vourdalak,” is screening in works in progress version at this year’s Ventana Sur Blood Window genre sidebar.
“Vurdalak Blood” takes place in the uncertain hours after a vampire hunt when it’s unclear if the hunter has himself been turned into a creature of the night. Will his family find out in time, or will their sentiment make them easy prey for the novice nightwalker? Natalia, his teenage daughter, ends up proving that her father has become a vampire just when her brother is abandoning her to her fate and the night threatens to arrive.
Fernandez’s film is produced by Aramos Cine, headed by Roxana Ramos and co-produced with Córdoba-based Jaque Content. As a project it received two production awards, one from Incaa and...
