SHRIEK is ready to bring you an overdue classic: The Exorcist! Join Heather, Evan, and the community for a fresh look at what's been called the scariest film ever made. Ever wonder why women and girls are more likely to be possessed than boys and men in horror movies? Let's discuss. Sponsored by Scarecrow Video and Crypticon Seattle!

SHRIEK is a community class merging film with education and offering an accessible forum outside of academia. The goal is to offer low-cost opportunities to learn about film and women's studies and to inspire more diverse filmmakers to get involved as creators in the genre. 

The Naked City screening room is 21+. Food and drinks are available on site. Please do not bring outside food or drink. We reserve the right to refuse admission to anyone under the influence of extreme drugs or drunkenness.
