Día de los Muertos Summer Film Series 2022
Dear Young Cinephiles,
If you are receiving this message, then you have been formally invited to participate in the inaugural DdlMFF Summer Film Series for Teens, Young Adults, and all Film Enthusiast young at heart.
This is the Summer of PG-13. You have most certainly seen a lot of good movies. Movies with family and friends. Great movies from Disney and super heroes. And classics that your parents showed you. And maybe even some “R” rated movies and movies with some foul language and the like.
You have been selected for this program because you are at the age to watch these films at 13 or above.
Or if you are a bit younger, then you have had parental guidance and approval to watch these movies. Not all movies are PG-13 though. Some are PG, G, or even R. But most we watched when we were kids, with the more lax PG rating or despite the R rating.
Note:
These films do not need to be watched in any particular order, but watched from top to bottom or however you like or to cherry pick. There are 51 movies:
https://www.imdb.com/list/ls565659900/
Please create an imdb.com account to track these moves and check off the list once you have viewed the movie.
For successful completion of this class, please watch at least 70% of the movies on the list or 35 movies. But please strive to complete all if you have the time and love for movies.
This may mean a sacrifice on watching normal regular TV, cable, favorite shows. But hopefully this will instill a love and appreciation for film.
Notice that the imdb.com list will show you were you can watch and stream the moves form, Netflix, Hulu, Prime, etc. If you don’t have these accounts, then you can go to your local library and put a digital hold on the titles to pick up at your convenience. Most can be watched for free this way, as some are more challenging to get than others in this time of digital media. (Please contact me for other torrent routes to download these titles.)
To get the most out of this experience, ideally it would be wise to watch each title in one sitting, Undistracted from phones, noises or extra lighting. Think of a movie theatre experience a la the Alamo Drafthouse, shhh.
To watch movies together with others virtually, please set up a watch party.
Afterwards, if you would like to write up a brief summation of the film or what it meant to you, please submit those to this email address.
If you see a title that would be a great addition to this list, please send to the same email for future inclusion for next years Summer Film Series. However, the titles selected here were selected because our family may have already viewed the title.
Sincerely,
Uncle “Traveling” Matt

uh, not so annual now…

Past Events
Día de los Muertos Film Festival 2015
For those that have expressed interest in attending our 3rd Annual horror movie night!
However, the forecasters were right and even more so…
Well there’s floodin’ down in Texas, and we want all to be safe in their homes and on the roads and pray for others affected by the flood waters.
Día de los Muertos is a Mexican holiday to celebrate the circle of life. It is our intentions to observe what is known to us as The Day of the Dead, as well as our own Halloween, and celebrate these in film.
This started out as watching horror movies alone at home on Halloween Night, after putting candy fueled children to bed. Too scared to continue to watch these movies alone, it was my intention to have a gathering to watch these with family and friends.
The outdoor projection screening is the most special to enjoy these sort of films. If it is dry enough on Sunday, we may be able to hold this event on the actual Día de los Muertos day. And could start the screenings an hour earlier, due to Day Light Savings.
Dia de los Muertos (Day of the Dead) 2015 begins on Sunday, November 1
Will let those know that have RSVPed if we still plan to hold the event on Sunday when it gets closer. If not, then please come out and enjoy this event with us next year!
Día de los Muertos Film Festival Part III, on Sunday Evening, the actual Dia de los Muertos Day of the Dead, day!
Please RSVP, if you are able to attend.
- Kids Events most likely canceled due to a new soggy sod lawn.
- Costume Contest
- Popcorn machine
- Keg of Shiner Wicked Ram IPA – (Released less than 2 weeks ago)
Film Screening Schedule
- 6:35 – Indoor Kids Screen – It’s the Great Pumpkin, Charlie Brown

- 8:20 – Outdoor Adult Screen – Suspiria
- 9:40 – Outdoor Adult Screen – The Town That Dreaded Sundown

Van Halen: I’ll Wait Lyrics
Songwriters: Michael Mc Donald;Alex Van Halen;Michael Anthony;David Lee Roth;Eddie Van Halen
You’ve got me captured
I’m under your spell
I guess I’ll never learn
I have your picture
Yes I know it well
Another page is turned
Are you for real?
It’s so hard to tell
From just a magazine
Yeah, you just smile and the picture sells
Look what that does to me
I’ll wait
‘Til your love comes down
I’m coming straight for your heart
No way
You can stop me now
As fine as you are
I wrote a letter
And told her these words
That meant a lot to me
I never sent it
She wouldn’t have heard
Her eyes don’t follow me
And while she watches
I can never be free
Such good photography
I’ll wait
‘Til your love comes down
I’m coming straight for your heart
No way
You can stop me now
As fine as you are
(Guitar Solo)
You can’t imagine
What your image means
The pages come alive
Your magic free
To everyone who reads
Heartbreakin’ motor drive
Are you for real?
It’s so hard to tell
From just a magazine
Yeah, you just smile and the picture sells
Look what that does to me
I’ll wait
‘Til your love comes down
I’m coming straight for your heart
No way
You can stop me now
As fine as you are
I’ll wait
‘Til your love comes down
I’m coming straight for your heart
No way
You can stop me now
As fine as you are
I’ll wait
