DVD Fest 2006
From CarlWiki
DVD Fest 2006 was the DVD Fest short film competition held on the weekend of 8th week during Winter Term 2006. It was much larger than any previous year's DVD Fest, featuring 37 films (versus 26 in DVD Fest 2005).
Entries
A noteworthy trend was the large number of films dedicated to quirky takes on small aspects of the Carleton experience, such as "The Meal Plan" and "Sexiled," and even "Temporary Unable to Dispense Cash" (referring to a common message on the ATM machines at Sayles). This trend may have been inspired by the success of "Friday Flowers." There were also at least four films with ninjas.
Much to the disappointment of many, there was no addition to the "Strike of the Mongoose" series.
