The Housecore Horror Film Festival returns to New Orleans from 19 to 21 November, wrapped around the weekend Pantera play their singer's home city for the first time in more than thirty years.
Philip Anselmo picks the films himself. They screen at the Lakefront Arena on the Friday and Saturday with guest introductions and meet and greets, and the aftershows run at Santos Bar in the French Quarter. The Thursday opens at Tipitina's with a Down listening party for Volume V and sets from Suplecs, Spirit In The Room and Nest.
The concert itself is a separate ticket. The Great NOLA Trendkill takes the Lakefront Arena on the 20th and 21st with Pantera headlining and Down, Black Label Society, Power Trip, Corrosion Of Conformity, Crowbar, Pig Destroyer and Eyehategod under them. It is named for The Great Southern Trendkill, which turns thirty this year.
Sean Yseult, who played bass in White Zombie, will be there signing her book.
To be back in New Orleans with such a package is a dream come true, Anselmo said.
