A Merry Movie Christmas returns to The Electric Theater Saturday Dec. 17 at noon. If Horror-Fest was about the heebie-jeebies, then A Merry Movie Christmas is all about the warm-and-fuzzies.
The centerpiece of this magical, Christmas-inspired cinematic event will be the Holiday Edition of the Guerilla Shorts Showcase. Aspiring southern Utah-based filmmakers were given a month to put together short films that take place during the yuletide season. Each film was also required to include a Christmas tree and either an ugly sweater or mistletoe. Come on out and see what these creative storytellers came up with.
“A Merry Movie Christmas” has been warming hearts since 2010, and this year’s event promises to be a wonderful get-together for the entire family. In addition to an imaginative (and heartfelt) slate of holiday-inspired short films, expect a handful of other magical surprises as well. In fact, rumor has it that a jolly bearded fellow in a red suit may be taking time out of his hectic schedule to make a rare appearance.
Tickets for A Merry Movie Christmas are only $6 for adults and $3 for children 3 to 11. Children 2 and under are free. Partial proceeds from the event will go to Switchpoint Homeless Shelter.
Come on out, support our filmmaking community, and lend a helping hand to Switchpoint in the process. After all, ’tis the season for giving.
