This just in:

Southern Backtones will perform this weekend at the Houston Halloween Film Festival (HHFF). Dont miss this opportunity to see several short films by local artists, hear freaky live music, eat, drink and barf all under one roof.

The HHFF is an independent, grassroots, festival like no other. It is a truly unique event, created by filmmakers for filmmakers, with local support from people who believe in the arts. Our goal is to inspire & cultivate local talent, foster positive awareness of the production community here in Houston, raise some cash for a good cause and have a great time doing it.

This year we will once again be raising money to support the Texas Coalition for Quality Arts Education. So whether you enter a film or just enjoy the party, we will all be doing our part to ensure the survival of arts in education. $10 gets you all the food, drinks, films & fun. Costumes are encouraged, so get dressed up and come party with the film community.

Location: Rice Media Center (2100 University Blvd., Houston 77030). Doors at 7 p.m.
