For the gayest possible Spooky Season this year, Ridgewood Commons will be screening the 2019 queer vampire film “Bit” on Wednesday October 22nd at 7:30.

(And be sure to come for Rocky Horror with Shadow Cast on the 29th!)

Bit follows Laurel, played by Nicole Maines, a trans woman and activist who had a recurring role in season 2 of Yellowjackets. The film begins as she leaves Portland to stay with her brother and find herself in L.A. She meets a cute girl, and next thing you know, she’s fallen in with a girls-only vampire gang. However, rather than focusing on this budding romantic relationship, the film explores her relationship to her friends and family, as well as to herself.

There is, of course, also a seasonally appropriate amount of blood and guts, as well as a heartwarming message of unity to lead us into the Fall of [you know the … bit ;)].

Stick around after the film to discuss its political elements and their implications for today.
