Looking forward to sharing Surrogate with an international audience!

Surrogate - short film!

Surrogate comes to us from the United States of America, is the 10th film from the USA to be featured at the show, and has a runtime of 8 minutes even . It was directed by Nick Michael, written by Jon Dittman, and produced by Kyle Thornton. It stars Alexandria Rumsey.

Synopsis:

The movies have been handed over to our Blood Bash Judging Panel, so we are unsure if this film will be shown on Friday or Saturday. However, we can confirm that you can catch it on one of those days at Blood Bash 2024. The event will take place on Friday, February 9th, 2024 (film festival bonus night) and Saturday, February 10th (main convention day) at the Commonwealth Commerce Center in downtown Jackson, Michigan!

If you've never attended a Blood Bash event before, be aware that it is quite different from most other shows! In addition to the vendor room and the film festival, there are plenty of other activities to enjoy. These include participating in interactive game shows and trivia challenges, playing carnival games and video game challenges for free, a contest for the best scream queen, a cosplay contest, and much more!

Get your tickets now at www.meggaxp.com/tickets - - - tickets are just $10 for Friday night, $15 for Saturday, or $20 for BOTH days!!! You can also get kids tickets if your kids are crazy enough to handle this show - - - for $5 for both days!!! That's right, $5 and your kids 12 and under can be disturbed for not one, but TWO days!

Finally, if you're in the military, past or present, you can just show your military ID at the door and get to come experience Blood Bash 2024 on us, as a way of saying thank you for your service!!!

Vendor booths have been sold out for awhile, but you can still get on the waiting list if you want by heading over to www.meggaxp.com/getyourbooth and signing up!!! Also worth noting, that even if you don't get in to this year's show, just BEING ON THIS LIST will get you early access to Blood Bash 2025, so it's worth signing up regardless!

So SAVE THE DATE, people! Saturday, February 10th, 2024 (as well as Friday if you're a HUGE movie fan and want to see ALL of the movies) - - Commonwealth Commerce Center - - - - downtown - - - Blood Bash 2024

As a group that’s participated in both Z-Fest Film Festival and Catalyst Story Institute we’re excited to see the collaboration. Oh and Surrogate might be showing there as well ;)

Come, play hooky with us! This year we’re trying something different. Drive up to Duluth on Thursday, October 5th to watch some amazing Z-Fest shorts at Catalyst! Improve your filmmaking skills by asking some of the best Minneapolis filmmakers how they did it. This is a rare Q&A opportunity to speak with the creators of five of the top ten films of Z-Fest 2023. Q&A Screening starts at 3 PM and should run until 5 PM. Stay overnight if you can and have some fun. See the beautiful fall leaves change colors. There’s nothing to lose and everything the gain! Tickets are only $10.
