Dungeon Masters and other delights
- by Raphaela Neihausen, November 12, 2008
A sold-out crowd welcomed Keven McAlester’s film THE DUNGEON MASTERS to the IFC last night. Audience members included film subject Scott Corum, members of the band Blonde Redhead (who provided the film’s score) and many avid film-lovers and “D&D"ers.
The Q&A included producer Jeff Levy-Hinte of Antidote Films, Corum, McAlester (L to R, see photo) discussing their different perspectives on the filmmaking. Watching over a year of his life compressed into the 90 minute film, Corum said: “it was like a trip to Disney Land in 5 minutes, and a car crash that lasts 2 hours.”
The packed reception at 99 Below featured a “Dungeon Masters Drink Special” (a heavenly espresso martini) which the bartender generously poured.
