The Germans and the Mexicans have always had a love affair. (Think Beer and Polka) But when Ficg decided to honor Beki Probst a couple of years ago (or was it last year) who knew what the relationship would grow into.
At the Berlinale this year, Mexico was the first-ever country to be honored by the Festival. The Wall — the Berlin Wall and the Proposed Wall to further divide the two North American Nations of USA and Mexico — further unites them. After all, Berlin was alway Berlin and USA’s Southwest has always been Mexico. That’s why there are so many Mexicans there.
Now the Maguey Prize, the centerpiece of Ficg, is going to German film veteran Jürgen Brüning.
Congratulations Jurgen! Our own association goes back to those early days in the 90s when we were all getting to know each other. Here are IMDb’s listed credits of those years!

We know some of you are always on the lookout for the more provocative and atmospheric genre offerings that come down the pike, and today we have details on the March 8th DVD release of Patrick McGuinn's Eulogy for a Vampire from Water Bearer Films.
Synopsis:
A remote, rural monastery houses the young repressed monks of the Order of Pathicus and their dark secrets.

After a quarter century of silence, the house’s violent past yearns for awakening. Animals are found eviscerated, odd sounds breathe in the night air, and an evil presence is felt throughout.
When an unconscious young drifter is discovered near the monastery, his sexual presence unsettles the young novices as well as the resident priests. The man’s dark charisma ensnares...
