Activity Description

"Vampire Time Travelers" is a live-action cartoon funhouse that follows a group of college students who, during a sorority initiation, encounter a hallucinatory mix of low-budget, butt-biting vampires, unexplained time jumps, and increasingly ridiculous supernatural situations. The film is described as a kinetic, self-aware horror spoof that stacks crude jokes, whiplash editing, and chaotic genre detours at a relentless pace. It's an absurdist precursor to the deliberately chaotic anti-comedy and disruptive editing seen in "The Eric Andre Show" and "Tim and Eric Awesome Show, Great Job!" The film operates on the idea that psychically overloading the viewer is the ultimate joke, with an anything-goes structure, meta humor, and total disregard for narrative stability. It is considered one of the most unique SOV (shot-on-video) horror films. A short film, "My Whore Roommate is a Vampire" by Ash Ward, will screen before the main feature. The screening will be followed by a Q&A session with Les Sekely via Zoom.
