Mar. 18—Following what writer-director Eddie Lengyel says was a sold-out screening on Feb. 29, at Atlas Cinemas Lakeshore 7 & XXDXP in Euclid, the horror movie "The Melon Heads" — which is set at least partially in Lake County — will be shown at 7:30 p.m. March 21 at Great Lakes Stadium 16, another Atlas theater, in Mentor.

Lengyel provided a synopsis in an email: "When four college students get their final assignments for the semester, the group heads up to the alleged abandoned crow mansion in Kirtland, Ohio. The legend of the mysterious Dr. Crow and the Melon Heads (has) haunted the locals for year. And until now it's only been folklore and myth, but when the students enter into the Crow Manson they come face to face with the diabolical doctor and his flesh-eating Melon Head creatures, will they escape the wrath of Dr.Crow or will they fall prey to the legend of the Melon Heads?"

Tickets for the 90-minute movie, which is not rated, are $13.
