| 48 Days Later
The Providence 48 Hour Film Project simply refuses to die quietly. Like a zombie crawling out of the mire, it has returned for one last burst of chaos in the form of 48 Days Later.
Many teams continued to develop/edit/fine-tune their films after the conclusion of the 48HFP. They will be screening their "Final, I Mean It This Time, We Had More Than Enough Time So Seriously This Is The Final Cut" of their films this weekend at The Comedy Connection. Sunday, October 21, 5pm
Admission is free and you would be supporting local filmmakers and business (there is a bar, after all). So just go already. In fact, for $10 you can stick around and see a Comedy Showcase which starts at 8pm.
