Birth Movies Death
The What The Film Fest - an annual, weekend-long celebration of outsider cinema hosted by Toronto's Laser Blast Film Society - has two options on its audience-award voting ballots. On any given film, you can say you “Loved It,” or declare it “Too Weird.” Thus, the festival ends up with two awards: Best in Fest, which this year went to Mangoshake (reviewed here), and Weirdest in Fest. The latter honour went to Armando Lamberti's Green House.
