Screamers is a 75-minute feature film created and performed by members of the New York City experimental dance, theater and performance communities - including dancers, actors, directors, designers and curators. A kind of conceptual ghost story, Screamers was conceived during a year-long residency at a former Catholic Church owned by the artist Dan Hurlin in Stuyvesant, NY – and was subsequently filmed over the course of two weeks in September 2015, with additional filming in the Playhouse at Abrons Arts Center.
Screamers is the first feature film by Chocolate Factory Co-Founder / Artistic Director Brian Roger and is the third in a trilogy of works referencing cinematic vocabularies after Hot Box (2012/13, co-presented with Crossing The Line, PS122 and EMPAC) and Selective Memory (2010/11, Bessie Nomination).
