Everybody's doing the Rosen-dance!

In the tradition of Micky and Carlo, the two unlucky (or lucky, depending which side you are on) actors hired to play Rosencrantz and Guildenstern in Theo Horace’s play “Rosencrantz and Guildenstern are Undead” who constantly try to find new ways of improving or modernizing their characters names, this video is called “The Rosendance”…do the Rosen-dance this Halloween and be the cool kid at the party…

Dancelvania

Spooky spoken words have a long tradition in dance music. From Vincent Price’s crackly low monologue over “Thriller” to Nigel Tufnel’s attempt to capture the dark mysteries of “Stone ‘enge” to almost any intro of a Doctor Octagon song.

Following in that tradition, and maybe a little inspired by Rocky Horror, a scene from “Rosencrantz and Guildenstern are Undead” was just included in a Halloween Dance song.

A DJ known as Dancelvania put a beat under Theo Horace’s dialogue where he teaches the vampire slave girls to turn human’s into vampires. Check it out here

The festival is composed of Animation, Comedy (that’s the one we’re in) Documentary, Kids, Horror, Independent, International Film, Shorts Film, World (how is this different from international, I wonder?) and Digital (which should be the same as indipendant, maybe…)

According to their website “The Hollywood Film Festival®, was created to bridge the gap between established Hollywood, indie filmmakers and the global creative community, as well as to honor excellence in the art of filmmaking.”
