What was the last movie you went to see? Mine was a homespun tale called "Night of the Loup Garou" and it was a great experience.
The campy film pays homage to the great B-movie horror flicks of old. It details a day (and night) in the life of Dr. Dax Wingo, an expert in the mythical Loup Garou, or Cajun Werewolf. Dax and a merry band of hunters, scientists, and prerequisite G-men search for the tormenting beast in the woods of Taylor, Miss. The action that ensues is horrifying, funny, and down right clever.
The film was produced, designed, directed, and (in many cases) acted by an extremely creative and talented group of folks in Oxford, led by Ole Miss' Micah Ginn. My friend Laura Cavett did the poster art, prop work, set design, and created the Loup Garou costume. They all did a great job and I hope they plan on a sequel very soon. (Cue the growl and bone-rattling howl)
If you get a chance to check out the movie, I highly recommend it. Look for showtimes at www.mississippiwerewolf.com.
