Film-wise, today went beyond the ordinary with evil stolas, living vampire babies that should've been deadborn and the ever-enjoyable juicy details from dirty Ozzie-minds.
Champagne in the park, vodka-redbull in the cinema. Many a ristretto inbetween and funny reactions from the audience, ranging from laughter to the aforementioned gore to two girls seriously telling each other that "Seventh Moon" really "had its scary moments y'know!" Does that mean we are pregressively hard-to-please? You do keep re-evaluating films in the light of recently viewed ones, but even that can not explain the difference in appreciation. Ah taste, the only thing worth arguing about...

Overheard the following remark: "Can't they do 'imagine in the park' next year?" - so true! We started our festival in the park today: breakfast, sunshine and champagne. Life is good!
Idea for next year: watch all the films with a heart rate monitor attached, and log minimum, average and maximum heartbeats per minute as an indication how engaged / scared / excited you were while watching a particular film! It would be a cool addition to our statsattack. Geoffrey has promised to enlighten us with some wicked statistics at the end of the festival in an attempt to "objectively" make sense of our reviews and experiences during this 25th AFFF / imagine festival. Can't wait!
Clocking in at 45 films as of tonight, tomorrow the last batch which will bring me to a grand total of 51 feature films. Argh.
Also pushed the limits today when it comes to a continuous influx of caffeine, alternating between coffees (cappuccinos and espressos) and red bull - topped up with donuts, Belgian wafles, noodles, biscuits, sausage. A medical check-up after the festival would probably be a bad bad idea...
