In partnership with the Communications Program and Professor Sam Davis-Boyd, the VTSU Castleton Soundings Program presents our annual film festival.

On Tuesday, March 12th, we will present the film "Gunfighter" in Herrick Auditorium (Stafford Academic Building).

Synopsis: A hunter returns home to North Carolina with a mysterious green case. Following the death of his mother, he moves back into the family home where his mind begins to disintegrate. Stalked by divine voices and unholy visions, guided by disquiet, his mother's hand written riddles and strange visitors further complicate an already splintering mind. A cable man, a mummified cat, zealous neighbors, and a killer swirl through this darkly comic southern gumbo.

The filmmaker will be in attendance at the screening!
