What with all the Hollywood productions flooding into New Mexico of late (yes, that was sexy ex-vampire Alexander Skarsgård you saw lurking Downtown), it’s always a major treat to see an honest-to-goodness local film—one that was born and bred right here in our state. On Saturday, May 16, Guild Cinema (3405 Central NE) will be screening the psychological thriller Truth. It was produced by Las Cruces-based PRC Productions and directed by Michael J. Cramer. Shot in and around Silver City, the low-budget film follows a group of college students who stumble across an abandoned government research facility that was used to create a groundbreaking, nanotechnology-based “truth” serum. Seems that things went a wee bit wrong, and now—a decade later—something dangerous is lurking in the dark. The film will screen at 1pm only.
