One
of the highlights of the 7th Festival of Serbian Fantasy
Film in Belgrade was the first
Serbian Zombie Walk.
It
took place on a beautiful Saturday afternoon, 20th October 2012.
The
team of about 20 zombie-makers was supervised by the living legend of Serbian
make-up effects, Miroslav Lakobrija (T.T.
SYNDROME, SRPSKI FILM, ...PORN GANG, ZONA MRTVIH etc) - pictured below:
Dylan Dog, famous English (Italian) investigator
of the occult & occasional zombie killer, was also in Belgrade.
The
festival's special guest was the Italian EFX maestro, Sergio Stivaletti, responsible for the zombies in DELLAMORTE
DELLAMORE and for gore & visual effects in almost everything Argento's done
since PHENOMENA.
Stivaletti was head of the jury which
awarded the best zombie make-up.
Here's
the winner! The one on the left, that is.
I
was there, too – but without make-up. I didn't need it.
The
walk was accompanied by a cheerful atmosphere of carnival – nothing strange for
Serbs, who are used to sing & dance & make fools of themselves in face
of adversity and apocalypse.
Here's
a video with some of the moments from the Belgrade
Zombie walk.
Plus, some more
pics to give you the idea of the event. Enjoy.
