By summoning a murderous zombie to wreak vengeance upon an unsuspecting Mardi Gras 23 years later, the adult MacGuffin unwittingly unleashes forces beyond his control and aids a pair of renegade aliens in their own sinister agenda.
Come meet the directors, New Orleans natives Will Frank and Karl DeMolay, and see the newly remastered 10th Anniversary Edition of the film!
Doors open at 6, screening at 7 pm

Elise's Playground Fetish Masquerade Ball
more rebuilding (or lack there of) and eminent domain news!!!
found these while looking at google news. all about New Orleans and recent developments:
Update 4: New Orleans Residents Show Anger at Forum
Angry residents expressed frustration Wednesday at the debut of rebuilding proposals for this devastated city, taking aim at a suggested four-month moratorium on new building permits in areas heavily flooded by Hurricane Katrina

New Orleans plan angers residents
...They were upset by a recommended four-month moratorium on rebuilding homes in some affected districts...

Hostility Greets Katrina Recovery Plan
NEW ORLEANS, Jan. 11 -- Angry homeowners screamed and City Council members seethed Wednesday as this city's recovery commission recommended imposing a four-month building moratorium on most of New Orleans and creating a powerful new authority that could use eminent domain to seize homes....
http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-d…
Doesn't the government realise that the people aren't happy with the plan? And the people are what comprise the city, put them in office, and who they are supposed to be representing the feelings and ideas of not their own!
edit anyone knwo how to contact the ACLU??? I think this is a matter they may be able to help with, hopefully. And if we all contacted them then they might realise that their help is wanted/needed.
