Beyond Class "Halloween Festival"

At Richard Bland on Halloween the school held a film festival. I personally enjoyed this event and the movies they showed. There were a list full of movie scenes we watched but the two movies I liked the most were It and Dawn of the Dead. It was a horror/drama based on Stephen King's novel about a wisecracking clown called "Pennywise the Dancing Clown". Dawn of the Dead was a horror/sci-fi film made in 2004 and it was directed by Zack Snyder. This motion picture shows a some human survivors living in a Milwaukee, Wisconsin shopping mall surrounded by swarms of blood thirsty zombies. I really liked this movie festival and hope that Richard Bland continues to have activities with their students like this one.
