KUDOS: AIVF Member Screenings and Accomplishments

Orin Portnoy's KILLER BUNNIES was conceived in a dream in early 2002 on a hot night in February and was shot weeks later in the Arizona desert. The film was shot on super 8 and then transferred to DV and loaded into a G3 Mac with Final Cut Pro where it was cut; the music was recorded on the same Mac with Pro Tools. The crew was simple like the story. Upcoming screenings at New York Independent Film and Video Festival, New Filmmakers Series at Anthology Film Archives, Black Bear Film Festival, and more.

Film Threat

Killer Bunnies Directed by Orin Portnoy For a change, bunnies hunt humans in the hot Arizona desert. Thing is, these bunnies are about six feet tall, carry rifles and smoke stogies. And the humans they're hunting -- well, you'll just have to get yourself down to this show and see for yourself. Shot in glorious black and white Super 8mm.

....On the other hand, Orin Portnoy's "Killer Bunnies" is a humorous, tongue-in-cheek comedy in which two guys dressed in bunny suits roam the Arizona desert for the perfect kill. It's enough to make any "furries" aficionado squirm.
