Fantastic Fest 2013: Images From Day One - MACHETE KILLS, SEPTIC MAN, PROXY And Many More!

Andrew Mack, Editor, News; Toronto, Canada (@Mack_SAnarchy)

Welcome to the first of many galleries committed to giving you a visual essay of the treats and fun going on in Austin at Fantastic Fest this week. A small gaggle of our intrepid staff is there right now whooping it up Texas style so the rest of us get the enviable task of sorting through a bevy of images from each day at the festival. Goody. Todd claims that the gang at ground zero cannot commit to creating these galleries because of dodgy wi-fi. Those of us who have been to many a Fantastic Fest, including myself, know this is simply not the case. I feel that I should be quoting Pickles from that episode of Metalocalypse when he tries to buy 'that cinnamon bun franchise', "Too drunk. Too drunk"

Enjoy the show!

(NOTE: There is no photographic evidence to back up my claim about that drunk part. But we know. We know.)

Note the comfortable seats. Note the clear line of sight. Note the tables in front of each seat. Those are for the full menu service and drinks while you watch your movie. Truly this is what heaven on Earth is. Now you know why we make such a big deal about these places.)
