MIDDLEBURGH / WARNERVILLE — The Green Wolf Brewing Co. will conclude its spring film series with the local debut of “Shudderbugs” on Sunday, April 21st. Cobleskill-Richmondville grad Johanna Putnam’s indie film has received high praise as it toured film festivals nationwide since its late 2022 release.
Shot entirely in the Schoharie Valley during the Covid-19 shutdown of 2020. The film focuses on grief, paranoia, and, appropriately for the strange days within which it was filmed, isolation. 2023 was a good year for the psychological thriller. Putnam and her small film crew won fifteen awards from the twenty-one film festivals they attended, including best screenplay, best performance, best original music score, and The Ralph Steiner Prize for poetic cinema. The screening will be a homecoming for the film and filmmakers alike, as Putnam and members of her creative team will attend the local debut on Sunday night to present their film.
With a large crowd expected, The Green Wolf suggests that some consider bringing camping chairs to ensure available seating. The Green Wolf will also be raffling off movie posters from past screenings. Please join us for this special event and support local films. The screening is free with a suggested donation of $5.
