"But for the truly dedicated, all of December should be dedicated to cinema of the macabre. They get their wish with the latest edition of Another Hole In the Head, the festival whose focus on sci-fi, fantasy, horror, and more, i.e. the miscellaneously "wild, weird and wonderfully unexpected," returns for its 22nd edition this week. The online edition on Eventive does indeed run all month long, December 1-31, with quite a number of titles available via streaming only."
"The in-person program, held at SF's Balboa Theatre, occupies a shorter if busy span December 5-18. It opens this Fri/5 with two indie US features (both accompanied by shorts): Daniel W. Bowhers' Beyond the Drumlins finds a crew of university researchers waylaid by mysterious powers during a field trip in the woods; Kyle Misak's more darkly comedic Bad Haircut has another collegian suffering some things far worse than the title predicament when he goes to get his faulty follicles fixed by one very peculiar barber."
Another Hole In the Head dedicates December to sci-fi, fantasy, and horror films, offering an online program December 1–31 and an in-person run December 5–18 at San Francisco's Balboa Theatre. The festival opens with Beyond the Drumlins and Bad Haircut, both screened with accompanying shorts. Program highlights include tales of toxic farm soil (Dead Bloom), dangerous moonshine (The Undistilled), and a menu gone wrong at a Chinese restaurant (Free Buffet). Other entries probe hazards of freelance housecleaning (Interaction), risky social invitations (The Hanged Man), community theatre follies (Theater Is Dead), isolated cabin dread (Weekend at the End of the World), and a satanic cult world premiere (A Reservation).
