The Central Heating Lab at ACT celebrates RAWSTOCK's Fifth Anniversary Screening, Friday March 6. RAWSTOCK V features cinematic highlights such as Spencer Susser's brilliant zombie love story Sara Jane, Megan Griffith's drama Moving (featuring Humpday director Lynne Shelton), Tor Fruegaard's ultraviolent puppet epic It Came From The West, Darrius Scheider's Fluffer (his follow up to I Married A Towel) and Lick A Ninja, Shawn Telford's beserk foray into corporate sponsorship. The evening is bookended by two decadent parties sponsored by Bulliet Bourbon and features live music from The Fred Roth Revue. Yet any description of the night falls short of capturing the energy and essence of this event. As local filmmaker Darrius Scheider recently opined, 'The only way to describe RAWSTOCK is to experience RAWSTOCK.'
