Holy crap. The Fantastic Fest list of scheduled films is starting to roll out and there are some real gems in here. For one, they got a real print of Hausu, which is spearheading an unstoppable torrent of Japanese weirdness, including Robo Geisha and Vampire Girl Vs. Frankenstein Girl. The festival's tradition of deranged world cinema seems to be going strong, including a baffling sounding Estonian film about Pinnochio's son, and Morphine, a new film from Cargo 200 director Aleksey Balabanov.
I'm burning through my vacation time this year with a trip to France in August, but I am going to go ahead and get a badge anyway, if only to get to see stuff at night after work. I've never missed a Fantastic Fest yet, and I don't intend to now.

i have a web app to assist in scheduling, and i'm looking for other users (also known as guinea pigs) to try. i'm especially curious this year to know if it works for people who only partially attend, so if you could try it :).
Festival Scheduler
I usually use B-Side, but since I am just doing the last half this year, I'll totally test yours.
