Hey HorrorBid!!! great contest guys!just wanted to show my contest entery, i made this one very quick today, i hopefully will do it with a better camera if thats ok, but heres the video of my horror collection, Iv been collecting for around 4 years now and im only 15, I grew up with horror, nce my father works in the film industy iv always been obsessed with anything horror related!
as my fascination keeps growing so does the collection, i have blown just about my entire savings on this collection. As other kids play with trucks and toy dinosaurs, i was playing with severed heads and fake chainsaws. I collect many items such as masks, props, replicas, artwork, dvds, screen used props from movies and shows, but mostely now i collect custom figures. I even traveled to different Countrys just to go to horror and figure expo`s. Iv been a huge fan of your guys webte for years now! i check it everyday for any updates! also i love thepropshop they have the best myers masks out there! Im a huge fan of Caseys work! So heres the video hope you guys enjoy, sorry about the crappy quality. http://youtu.be/EjJryyQAmeY

Damn that was tough and long hours editing lol. All costumes degned by myself and reenactments performed by myself as well. :) Will have more but I am not sure if I would have time to edit them before Halloween. So here is my compilation. I had ot use a tril software for the last ones to convert my videos back so I could use the in moviemaker, but will be buying that now. Still cool videos though.http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RFp5VY_B45I

First I would like to thank you guys for holding this contest. Not only for being so generous to give away all these great prizes. But to bring the community closer as one, and to re-spark my love of making fan films.
Also, I have enjoyed watching all your guys' entries. Some tough stuff to beat. Here is mine, hope you enjoy!
Also, looks much better in full screen.

I agree with everyone else.
All the haters can bite it.
If they really want to complain about something they could yell about the sequels being inaccurate to the original Halloween! Great vid man!

From the band Fugitive Underground and VideoMonkey Productions to you all for Halloween!
The recently dead are returning to life to feast on the flesh of the living. It's an all out Zombie Apocalypse. But will a little thing like that keep F.U. from playing a show?
HELL NO!!!
Armed to the teeth, Fugitive Underground head out cross country through the endless hordes of zombies. Fighting every stop of the way, they will not disappoint their fans, both living and undead. They will play this show, even if it kills them.

HorrorBid's Halloween Video Contest 2011
Alright, heres my entry. Ive been workin on this nce the beginning of October. It was originally going to be another sequel to a series of Halloween fan films ive made over the last couple years, but some things fell through and we only got some stuff filmed.
The plot involved a satanic cult member bringing back michael myers, and someone moving into the Myers house.
I decided to make this fake Red Band trailer instead and i think it turned out pretty good for a couple of kids right outta high school.BE SURE TO WATCH IN HD!
ENJOY

This is a schlocky short that five friends and I threw together in one day. None of them were actors, and I'm certainly not a director, but there's an actual meaningful storyline. It's a lent black and white featuring muc by Liars. By the way, the day we threw it together in was yesterday.

Kinda odd that most of the entries are 6 posts or less, makes you wonder if some are making videos with multiple accounts or just joining up to get something as opposed to contributing, as I am sure they won't be seen again after the contest.
