MAKE OUT WITH VIOLENCE
Tuesday, November 11 at 6pm in Buttrick 103.
The screening is free and open to the public.
Shot locally, the zombie love story, MAKE OUT WITH VIOLENCE, is a genre-bending tale of a boy trying to fulfill his unrequited love for a girl who has risen from the dead. Set against the backdrop of a summer of cicadas and melty milkshakes, the film blends elements of up-beat teenager melodrama with the strange gravity of classic coming of age stories.
