Still non-notable film which is still to be released. Corvus cornix_talk 02:22, 25 December 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Keep To politely disagree with the nominator, the film had releases in Poland (Polish Horror Festiwal) and the US (Vermont International Film Festival) in October, 2010. The search parameter as set by the findsources above is useless. Looking to the article itself, one sees that it has enough genre coverage, specially for a non-US film, to meet WP:NF.

What parts of Wikipedia:Notability (films) does this film meet? Corvus cornix_talk 03:51, 25 December 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Being released and having significant coverage. Wikipedia does not expect nor demand that an independent horror film by a Polish filmmaker would have the same coverage as does big-budget highly-touted blockbusters. Schmidt, ^{MICHAEL Q.} 04:09, 25 December 2010 (UTC)[reply]

...and yes, I opined a "keep or incubate" at the no-consensus keep AFD of last July as we had no reports of it being screened but production was getting coverage. With the expected release, that has now changed, and I can feel firmer in my keep this time around. It had coverage then,[1][2][3][4][5][6] and has even more now.

- And yes... since opining, I have been addressing some of the article's issues per Film MOS, to fix reference formats and to make it more encyclopedic.[7] Schmidt, ^{MICHAEL Q.} 09:32, 29 December 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Speedy keep - erroneous nomination? Seems it has been released, and has been discussed in multiple sources, so I don't see the problem.--Kotniski (talk) 20:38, 30 December 2010 (UTC)[reply]
