Hundreds of Beavers
Added April Fools’ Day Screening!
USA, 2022, Mike Cheslik
There will be no in-person special guests (or beavers) this time around, but here’s a second chance to catch the comedy sensation of the year on the big, crowded screen! A wordless, wildly inventive, live-action comic book-cum-videogame about a 19th-century trapper battling scores of buck-toothed varmints (all played by humans in mascot costumes) one Upper Midwestern winter, this indie anomaly saw sold-out shows during its Jan-Feb “Great Lakes Roadshow.” It has since conquered NYC and L.A., garnering great reviews and infecting more moviegoers with “beaver fever.” Sure the special effects are cheesy, but what else would you expect from guys from Wisconsin? Don’t miss it! “A marvel of slapstick invention…In terms of pure unbridled creativity [it] puts most big-screen comedies to shame.” –Daily Beast. DCP. 108 min. www.hundredsofbeavers.com (Source: ohio.org)
