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!

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.”
