Hollywood Theater Hosting Pittsburgh Premiere Of New Film

DORMONT, PA - The Hollywood Theater will host the Pittsburgh premiere of a just-released independent movie a Bethel Park filmmaker spent three years completing.

“Noxious,” debuts March 10 at 4 p.m. at the Hollywood, a month after its world premiere in Florida. The movie’s commercial release will occur this summer.

“It is an eclectic mix of genres,” first-time filmmaker Diana Riggs said. “Thriller, horror, sci-fi, a love story, drama and a hint of humor that should be a fun ride for everyone.”

According to Riggs, the movie “speaks clearly to the concerns for our Gulf coast environment.”

Tickets can be ordered online for the premiere. Contact the Hollywood for additional showtimes. This movie is not yet rated and not suitable for small children.

The premier is the first for the Hollywood under its new ownership, the Pittsburgh-based nonprofit Theatre Historical Society of America. The society completed its purchase of the theater last month.
