‘Moose: The Movie’ shows May 30 at Homer Theatre

“Moose: The Movie,” a film by Tundra Comics cartoonist Chad Carpenter and his brother Darin Carpenter, shows at 8:30 p.m. May 30 at the Homer Theatre. Tickets are $10. Chad Carpenter plans to attend and speak at the showing.

Filmed in the Mat-Su Valley, “Moose” is a comedy spoof of horror movies.
