Additional Event Information
Come celebrate the 40th anniversary of 'Skate Witches' -- the legendary short film by iFFY visiting filmmaker DANNY PLOTNICK -- with a rager rock show afterparty at our favorite downtown Ypsi venue, ZIGGY'S!
That's right, that bite-sized punk comedy classic, shot by Plotnick on the UM Diag in 1986, is hitting the big 4-0! At 7 PM on Saturday, 4/18 at Riverside Arts Center, iFFY will be screening the film as part of a Danny Plotnick retrospective, SUPER 8 & DESTROY: THE FILMS OF DANNY PLOTNICK.
After movie time, make your way down the street to watch TRUE DEVIL (featuring Skate Witches cast member/Lucky Monkey Tattoo co-owner Dana Forrester!) and ELECTRIC HULDRA melt the walls with heavy rock action! We'll also be hosting a SKATE WITCHES costume contest! Rumor has it Dana will even be bringing a replica of her original hand painted Skate Witches jacket; the original can't make it because it's in the permanent collection at the Smithsonian (wait, what?! No, FOR REAL!).
Doors at 9:30 pm. $5-10 sliding scale for folks just attending the show, no cover if you show your ticket stub for SUPER 8 & DESTROY at the door. Bring your best Skate Witch finery, ear protection, and a rock & roll fist to pump.
