A Prairie Horror (HANDOUT)

Just in time for Halloween, Canadian video and performance artist Jillian McDonald will screen her latest frightening work.

A Prairie Horror” will be shown alongside McDonald’s “Incident at the Pool” (2011) at the University of Manitoba today.

McDonald has recently focused her attention on American horror films but unlike contemporary horror directors, she avoids extreme gore and violence in favour of a stripped down narrative and archetypes.

The made-in-Manitoba film will begin at noon in 136 ARTlab, School of Art, 180 Dafoe Road.
