Dallas filmmaker Israel Luna takes his 'Ticked-Off ->-bleeped-<-s With Knives!' to the Tribeca Film Festival — but not without controversy

http://www.dallasvoice.com/artman/publish/article_12649.php

When Israel Luna submitted his latest film, Ticked-Off ->-bleeped-<-s with Knives, to the Tribeca Film Festival, he expected the usual "Thank You For Your Interest, We Wish You The Best Of Luck" letter. Instead, he got the news that his comedy-slasher-exploitation revenge fantasy had been accepted into one of the nation's most prestigious film festivals, established in 2003 by Robert De Niro, Jane Rosenthal and Craig Hatkof in New York City.

The low-budget feature — shot in Dallas last summer over 18 days — follows a group of transgender women who are violently beaten by three men and left for dead. After they regain consciousness and fully recuperate, they are stalked by their attackers but turn the tables in graphically sadistic ways, resulting in a lot of blood ... and a glimpse into the mind of a filmmaker with a seriously dark sense of humor.
