Geeking Out At Not Quite Hollywood (warning: Leprechaun inside)

Last night was a total party for anyone that loves B-movies. DSC_0018.JPGNot Quite Hollywood introduced and re-introduced the slavering Midnight Madness audience to some of the most ostentatious films in the Australian industry's history.

For me, it was wonderful meeting all of the directors last night - especially  Brian Trenchard-Smith, who I found out directed my third-favourite Leprechaun movie, Leprechaun 4: In Space!! leprechaun 4.jpgI have met a couple of personalities in my time volunteering at TIFF, but I don't think I've ever been so starstruck.  This is the man who read a script about a FREAKING LEPRECHAUN IN FREAKING SPACE and said to himself 'hi-yo! There's the project for me!'  (it should be noted that he also made Leprechaun 3 in which our Irish friend inexplicably finds himself in Vegas) Going through his resume on imdb, I also discovered that Trenchard-Smith apparently, made a movie about 9/11 starring George Takei!! How awesome is that?!
