ZRC Public Appearance: The Dark Carnival 2013

| February 27, 2013

The Zombie Rights Campaign was proud to attend The Dark Carnival film festival every year in Bloomington, Indiana as one of our favorite venues to see the latest in cutting-edge, independent Zombie cinema. Over the years we saw some of the best, worst, most offensive and most enlightening films that the independent horror world had [...]
