Fails WP:NFILM absent coverage in reliable sources; reviews are from blogs, user-generated content, and the like, and in some cases are trivial anyway. –Roscelese (talk ⋅ contribs) 23:28, 29 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]

• Comment. I'm in the process of trying to find sources, but I think that you're right in that this won't have enough sources to prove notability. I did remove some of the more unreliable sources, such as the forum link and the link to the film festival signup page. Those aren't reliable sources and one of them didn't even mention the film. If all else fails, I do think that this should be userfied/incubated until if/when it gets more coverage at its showing.Tokyogirl79 (talk) 05:39, 30 December 2011 (UTC)tokyogirl79[reply]
• Delete or userfy. There's no sources out there except for trivial sources and press releases. The sources on the article were predominantly to non-reliable sources such as non-notable blogs and forums. While this does look like an interesting film, we can't keep things because they're interesting and we can't even guarantee that there'll be more coverage down the line. Sending your trailer to multiple horror sites doesn't mean it'll become notable because there's a lot of films both mainstream and indie that have faded into the background after just one announcement.Tokyogirl79 (talk) 05:46, 30 December 2011 (UTC)tokyogirl79[reply]

• Comment. Just in case the initial editor is one of the crewmembers or is otherwise associated with the people who made the movie (since additions like this are almost always done by someone associated with the film and their only edits were to add the movie to various pages), I did leave a conflict of interest notice on their page just in case they weren't aware of that stuff.Tokyogirl79 (talk) 05:51, 30 December 2011 (UTC)tokyogirl79[reply]

• Userfy per WP:TOOSOON. Indpendent film, slated for upcoming festival release. Is verifiable through Dread Central[1] Bloody Disgusting[2] and less-than-preferred Anything Horror Horror Cult Films and the article does assert it will debut at the next Fantastique Semaine du Cinéma (October 2012)... so we can put it in limbo until it screens and gets wider coverage and commentary.
