Tune into the YouTube channel of the Oriental Institute Museum of the University of Chicago for a screening of Latino Art Beat’s short scary movie “Visiting the Museum”. This screening, which is a perfect scary treat during Halloween, will premiere on YouTube at 4pm on Wednesday October 20, 2021 (the video will remain up for your viewing enjoyment throughout Halloween.) “Visiting the Museum” (“VTM”) is a 20 minute film about two high school teens Raul and Clint, who have been friends ‘forever’, visiting the Oriental Institute Museum (“OI”) to do research for their homework assignment on Egyptology and mummies. Once in the museum the boys are in awe at the exhibits, when Clint wonders off and encounters a door marked “Do Not Enter” which, he of course enters finding much to his amazement an ancient mummy apparently being readied for display. Then the excitement begins!  This short film creates a real ambience of suspense and fear resulting in great ‘old Hollywood-style’ entertainment! The film was shot at the Oriental Institute on the grounds of the University of Chicago.  To view the film, visit the Oriental Institute Museums YouTube Channel: https://youtu.be/GLIP0Gt_I_s
