Volunteers!
Fantastic Fest is looking for volunteers for the 2009 festival. We need you to stand face to face with the celebs and the fans alike to make sure everyone has the best possible time in Austin. No other festival draws so many eclectic directors, writers, actors and genre film fanatics from across the globe and packs them all together with screenings, beer, karaoke, beer, BBQ, beer, trivia, beer, boxing and more beer. And you can help make it happen!

First 09 Fantastic Fest titles announced 7/13!
We've been on the hunt since last October, scouring the globe for the best of the best in crazy-beautiful cinema. Now that Fantastic Fest is a mere 3 months away, we are plotting to release details on the first wave of content in this year's festival. We have LOTS more special events, premieres and surprises that we will be trickling out roughly once a month until the festival. We'll be launching the newly revamped website and activating the BSide community all at the same time, so mark your calendars, July 13 by noon CST we'll be offering up the first glimpse of the Fantastic Fest 2009 toybox! If you want to stay on top of all the news and events, especially during the festival, subscribe to this blog and follow us on twitter! Badges are still available for this year's festival, so tell your friends - there ain't no party like a Fantastic Fest party.
