Beowulf to screen indie flicksBeowulf Alley Theatre Company, 11 S. Sixth Ave., is screening a damsel-in-distress flick called "Flicker" at 7:30 p.m. Friday and Saturday night. It's about a girl named Pretty who goes camping in the woods . . . well, you get the gist.
"If you're a fan of horror slasher flicks, you'll love it," said Bill Dell, a Beowulf board member who said "Flicker" is the first in a new series called Inde Fliks @ The Alley.
The schedule has yet to be announced, but Beowulf will be working in partnership with the Independent Film Association of Southern Arizona, or IFASA.
"We've been working toward this for at least six months," Dell said on Tuesday. "We wanted to find a way to support local filmmakers."
Admission to the films will be $5, except for "Flicker," which will cost you $12, as demanded by the filmmaker, Dell said.
If you're wondering why he thinks his bloody little movie is worth $12, you can ask him yourself when he takes questions following Saturday's screening.
His name is Aaron Hendren.
