Go get some grub, but be back at 6:30! The theater closes for cleaning.
Our annual "Iron Artist" style competition puts the best Lovecraftian artists head-to-head to create a completed masterpiece in only 90 minutes, based on surprise elements pulled out of a hat! It's a crazy rush to create amazing one-of-a-kind art. Each piece is auctioned off, with 100% of the proceeds going to charity (previous charities have included AnimalAid Portland, the Hollywood Theatre's Youth Film Education program, and the Hispanic Federation for hurricane relief in Puerto Rico). Through this competition, we have donated over $2500 to those in need.
Friday's screening of Short Film Block 1 will begin immediately after the Opening Night Gala.
Q&A with visiting filmmakers after the films.
See the US Premiere of The Rules of Ruin, inspired by the forbidden tome created by Joseph S. Pulver!
