Milwaukee Movie Talk started life as a private Facebook group in 2011. From there, we have grown beyond our wildest dreams, reaching thousands. We partnered with the Milwaukee Film Festival in 2013, being a community partner showcasing a selected film. This year, we chose Uncertain as our partner film. Lets look back at the brief but, interesting history we have had as community partners.

Milwaukee Movie Talk started life as a private Facebook group in 2011. From there, we have grown beyond our wildest dreams, reaching thousands. We partnered with the Milwaukee Film Festival in 2013, being a community partner showcasing a selected film. This year, we chose Uncertain as our partner film. Lets look back at the brief but, interesting history we have had as community partners.
2013 - Billy Club
Billy Club is a local production from directors Drew Rosas and Nick Sommer. It's a crazy horror movie with a baseball theme. Fifteen years after a triple homicide that killed their coach and two team mates, four friends reunite to remember their fallen comrades. Unbeknownst to them, the murderer has unfinished business with them. The film was a crazy, wild horror film with a lot of charm. A great flick to watch with a group of friends. Recreational drugs are optional.
2014 - Witching and Bitching
Witching and Bitching sold us the moment we saw the trailer. A Spanish horror/comedy from director Alex de la Iglesia, Witching and Bitching was a surprise sensation. A group of jewelry thieves on the run after a robbery make a wrong turn in to a town of witches. They hole up in an old house as the guests of a host of witches, intent on eating our hapless crew of unlucky robbers. Can they escape the lair of the witches? The movie was hilarious with great special effects, it was a treat to watch. No tricks here.
2015 - Uncertain
Uncertain is a documentary about a small Texas town. Written and directed by documentary veterans Ewan McNicol and Anna Sandilands, Uncertain tells the story of three men with troubled pasts in a town of 96. We have yet to see the film and, are looking forward to our screening of it.
While our history with the fest might be small, it feels like we have been doing it longer. We have had a few spotlight films over the years as well. We always look forward to the film festival and, look forward to partnering for many years to come.
