Full 2009 Toronto After Dark Line-Up Unveils Opening Gala for Black Dynamite
Every year the Toronto After Dark Film Festival gets a little bit bigger and a little bit more variety in its line-up, and while last year’s screening of Let The Right One In is still going to be hard to top, I think the 2009 programme is looking a lot more well-rounded.
The full schedule is now online, with new additions that include Norwegian Nazi zombie flick Dead Snow, Warlords starring Jet Li, Kim Ki-Duk’s Rough Cut, and an opening night gala for the blaxploitation parody Black Dynamite, which is sure to be a crowd pleaser. Toronto After Dark runs from Aug. 14th to the 21st; for more info visit the official website. Check out the full schedule after the jump.

I saw Dead Snow… big let down in my book.
Trick R Treat would be what I was most looking forward to.
Posted by Jon Rocks on July 29th, 2009I’ve got high hopes for Strigoi, Rough Cut, and Grace.
I’ve seen BLACK DYNAMITE, and it is a pretty solid opener for the fest. It’s a fuckin’ blast. You Dig. I’ve also seen the other riff on blaxploitation, BLACK, and it is also fantastic and novel and a little crazy.
Posted by Kurt on July 29th, 2009Are any of the film junk boys coming down to the festival this year? Hope to see you guys there.

Posted by Drew on July 29th, 2009Definitely hoping to catch at least a few flicks… Franklyn, Trick R Treat and Grace are the ones that I’m most interested in. I’d like to see Black Dynamite again as well.
Posted by Sean on July 29th, 2009This year is shaping up to be the best one yet. I’m only skipping two or three films this year.
Posted by Wintle on July 30th, 2009Line up pretty awesome, really looking forward to another great year at Toronto After Dark – especially for Franklyn and Rough Cut.
