Creepy Christian Cinema
Churches have been using film to spread their message since the early
20th century. Of the thousands of films made for churches and
synagogues, the A/V Geeks have picked some of the strangest and
creepiest. Films include Youth Suicide Fantasy: Does Their Music Make
Them Do It?, Stalked, He Restoreth My Soul, PSAs and other odd
religious shorts.

The Mouse Forgets...
What mouse are we talking about? How about that tiny mouse that started
as a small animation studio and has grown into an unstoppable media
goliath. While they've been releasing some of their less
entertaining/more ephemeral films on DVD, they've left some out. Shorts
like: VD Attack Plan, Story of Menstruation, Insects As Carriers of
Disease and more. Bring a friend! Door prizes. Suggested Donation $3.
