After the dust has settled at Austin's 2010 Fantastic Fest, the audiences and esteemed juries announced the winners of this year's awards. Jang Cheol-so's "Bedevilled" took home the Audience Award for best film, and the "Next Wave" Competition winner was Jorge Michel Grau's "We Are What We Are." "Bedevilled" tells the story of a girl who takes revenge on her tormentors after reaching her breaking point. Grau's "We Are What We Are," is a subtly told story of a cannibalistic family whose father dies, his body taken away before they can dispose of it in their own way.
