From Terrence Malick to Richard Linklater to Robert Rodriguez, Austin's film community has a long-standing tradition of individuality and independence. Fantastic Fest embodies this with more than 100 films from more than 30 countries, bringing to Austin such unique and diverse programming as vampire films from Sweden, action films from Australia, a comedy starring Jean-Claude Van Damme, and the new comedy film from Kevin Smith. Fantastic Fest is part of what helps keep Austin weird, and we love it for that. But just as important is how it shows the international film community once again that Austin is one of the most film-friendly cities in all of North America. From Austin Studios to the Alamo Drafthouse, Austin's love and commitment to film sets it apart – a fact we couldn't be more proud of. We sincerely hope that the Fantastic Fest 2008 experience will bring a new audience of filmmakers and movie lovers to appreciate Austin as one of the best places anywhere to make a movie or just go see one. Thanks to everyone involved in the festival, from the filmmakers to the staff to the audience itself for their support of Austin cinema. We hope everyone has a blast at Fantastic Fest 2008!

STATE OF TEXAS OFFICE OF THE GOVERNOR TEXAS FILM COMMISSION September 2008 Welcome Fantastic Festers, You have chosen wisely. Being part of this year’s Fantastic Fest does more than guarantee you eight days of amazing films from around the world; it also makes you part of an indelibly Austin experience. Think of the aicn.com readers and film fans around the world who would give pretty much anything to be here too. Take a look at the sponsor list, and you’ll see companies old and new, large and small, that have been front and center in securing Austin’s worldwide reputation as the place to be. The Austin Chronicle, Dell, BSide, Ain’t It Cool News, Austin Daze, KOOP, KVRX, AMD Austin and of course the Alamo Drafthouse Cinema – that’s quite the power list of commercial, cultural and media icons, and they’re all here at what has become one of Texas’ highest-profile festivals.
