"13 Hours" in a Red Box

by Chris Grap, MNDialog

The Minnesota-made horror film 13 Hours in a Warehouse hits Red Box today. That’s pretty cool, and chances are if you are in a place that has Red Box you don’t have the most discerning taste (or you collect Madagascar 2 toys, and that’s not good either). You might as well spend another buck and support a local filmmaker. Amazon, Best Buy, Blockbuster, Netflix…you can find the film just about anywhere. People are divided over Dav Kaufman’s film. Tripe or triumph, gorehound or not…whatever you think, here is some fodder for people on both sides of the fence.

1 drink – every time someone dies
1 drink – every time you see a ghost
1 drink – every time you see “32369” written on a wall (it’s also the director’s birthday)

Local Horror Film Wins Big

Hundreds of independent horror films are produced in Minnesota each year, most of which never leave the camcorder in which they were shot and simultaneously edited. Occasionally, however, a locally produced horror film will rise from out of the corn-syrup-and-chocolate blood concoction and get noticed. This year Dáv Kaufman’s 13 Hours in a Warehouse did just that. The film, shot locally with regional talent, took home the Gold Remi Award at WorldFest, Houston’s prestigious international film and video festival. The film later found global distribution and is now available through Netflix.

Watch the trailer and enjoy a pint:

Congrats to Dav Kaufman and crew on getting this one out there.

Stories We're Working On

In progress

These are some of the stories we are working on. We invite and encourage you to contribute to these stories, or to suggest other stories that you would like to see covered.

REPORTER’S NOTEBOOK | North Minneapolis We’ll tell you what the judge decides on the flurry of lawsuits around last winter’s Jordan Area Community Council controversy as soon as the decision is made (probably the week of July 6). What do you think about what’s been going on at JACC, in Jordan, and around the Northside? Tell us what you know – and what you think we should be covering.

REPORTER’S NOTEBOOK | Background checks bar park volunteers
Minneapolis parks have recently tightened enforcement of rules about background checks for volunteers. But does the “systemic bias of the criminal justice system” mean that many African American males will be barred from serving as volunteers? We want to hear your ideas.

REPORTER’S NOTEBOOK | Hmong Freedom Celebration and Sports Tournament Coming up this weekend! We’re looking for community input about the sports tournament, your experiences at the tournament, how it has changed over the years, what the gathering of Hmong from around the country and around the world means, and any other thoughts you might have about the weekend.

MUSIC | Black Blondie and Foxy Tann knock 'em dead at the Uptown Pride Block Party

By Dwight Hobbes , TC Daily Planet

The Uptown Pride Block Party on June 26 was an LGBT Pride Week affair, but you didn’t need to be lesbian, gay, bisexual, or transgender to get with it. For that matter, you didn’t have to have a dime in your pocket. All you had to bring was the willingness to enjoy a damned good time. MORE »
