Her love of movies is lifelong, reinforced by frequent theater outings with friends & family. In the COVID Before Times, she had a group of friends that met at least monthly for Movie Nights. Hopefully in the not-too-distant future, that tradition will rise from its shallow grave and walk the Earth. Guerrero’s School Of Hard Knocks introduction to Sci-Fi fandom (and resultant deep appreciation of the genre) came thanks to that most glorious of all gateway drugs, MYSTERY SCIENCE THEATER 3000.

When not hard at work moving beads left and right on her Abacus, Crystal can be found taking her Borgi (Border Collie/Corgi) Daisy on fur-raising drives through the Hill Country in her sports car, embarking on long paddles on area waterways, or (formerly) hiding behind a large stainless bowl of lightly salted popcorn at a Master Pancake Theater screening.
CG is honored and humbled to be asked to be part of the Other Worlds team, and is looking forward to
contributing to the Festival! (We're so lucky to have you, Crystal! -OW)

A rainy night in Montevideo, 1993, and cinema employee Ana finds herself taking her ailing father's place in the projection booth for the final screening of the evening – a gory old horror movie. But there's a violent maniac loose in the auditorium, and the screening which follows proves far more final than either she or the audience could ever imagine...
