7th Annual Zombie Prom Chicago, June 20th at The Cubby Bear!
Zombie Army Productions will once again be hosting its annual Chicago Zombie Prom at The Cubby Bear (1059 W. Addison, Chicago, IL 60613) on Saturday, June 20th, from 8:00 pm to 2:00 am. As Chicago’s #1 Zombie Event, Zombie Prom is a ghastly, affectionate, cheesy blend of nostalgic high school Americana and the living dead. Zombie attire and makeup are required, but if you do not have your own makeup, zombie makeovers will be available for a $10 donation. This year’s Chicago Zombie Prom is pleased to welcome Libido Funk Circus as the live zombie band, guaranteed to animate your corpse on the dance floor all night!
Other Chicago Zombie Prom highlights include the annual crowning of the Zombie Prom King & Queen, a photo booth and a free buffet (open from 8:00-9:30pm). Throughout the night there will be door prizes and giveaways from Zombie Prom Chicago’s sponsors which currently include Zombie Army Productions, Statesville Haunted Prison, Sinister Visions, Dark Chicago, Zombie Outbreak Apocalypse Tactical Laser Tag and HauntedHouseChicago.com.
This event is 21 & over only. For more info and to get tickets, visit http://www.ZombiePromChicago.com, and Follow/Like/Circle/Watch Zombie Prom Chicago and Zombie Army Productions on:

BUNNY Is Coming and Easter May Never Be the Same… Maybe
Here at Dark Chicago, we think you’ll agree that we’ve all lived long enough without a signature, ironic horror movie to watch on Easter. Oh, sure, you can play the “Jesus was a zombie” card and watch zombie movies, but that’s not the same thing. Christmas has a dozen or so horror movies (many of them classics). Valentine’s Day has a few. Even Thanksgiving has “Thankskilling”. Now, with your help, Easter will have BUNNY.
The guys over at Chicago-based Yokai Films have dreamed up what they hope to be the “best damn Easter Bunny horror film this world has ever seen,” and they need your help to bring it to the big (OK, probably smaller) screen. If the Kickstarter video is any indication, we’re all on the verge of a hilarious and creepy new Easter tradition… go fund Bunny and LIKE them on Facebook!

MOVIE NIGHT : Chicago-Based HorrorBlock Film Fest Short #HBFilmFest
Recently Horror Block and Rue Morgue Magazine sponsored a short film contest; while the contest has ended, there was an entry from Chicago filmmaker Cyle Williamson that’s worth a watch, from the Chicago-based bait & switch slasher opening to the the Demons-inspired concept and music. Give it a LIKE on YouTube and keep an eye on Williamson!

Chicago filmmaker Cody Meirick is making a documentary about one of the greatest children’s books ever published, and he needs your help to make it happen:
“This upcoming documentary will explore the history and background of one of the most controversial works of modern children’s literature: Scary Stories to Tell in the Dark. In many American libraries of the ’80s and ’90s these books developed a growing interest from boys and girls who were taken in by the gothic tales, the whimsical tone, and the ghostly illustrations. Now the Scary Stories book series stands as the most challenged children’s book of the last 30 years and a testament to the power of something that is often taken for granted: A good scary story.”
