Here are a few quotes from writers who have reviewed our past programs:

"...not your average anything. Strange, beautiful, grotesque, but obscenely smart... apathy's not on the agenda."
Oakland Urbanview, October 2003

“this third annual indie festival offers an energetic collection of nine videos and two films from Paris and across the U.S… the program tilts toward satirical and highly imaginative digital-video exercises delivered at MTV velocity.”
CRITICS CHOICE IN THE CHICAGO READER
J.R. Jones, December 13, 2002

“this year's Z Fest sets the bar high. If an October preview was any indication… patrons are likely to walk away profoundly altered.”
Michael Workman, New City, December 12, 2002

"…the last word (letter?) in fringe film and video-making…"
"Be warned. This is not a festival for the squeamish or artistically inflexible."
- John Petrakis, Chicago Tribune, December 7, 2001

"December spawned a monster."
-Jeremiah Kipp, filmcritic.com, December 2001

"aggressive, provocative"
- Fred Camper, Chicago Reader, December 7, 2001
