1,1 III ftrt ri hi I LI 1 Additions to the local movie-screen scene last week sated the appetites of the people who enjoy werewolf stories, exotic science fantasy, nightmarish futuristic fantasy and adventure comedy. It's only fair that the changes made this week affect the late-night moviegoers, fans of peaceful escape fantasy and those who like to see terror shows punched full of funny holes. The St. Vincent Six Theatres is maintaining its current lineup. There have been some late-night feature changes, though.

Flesh Gordon (R) and Jimi Hendrix (PG) are new for the midnight set, and daytime's Heavy Metal (R) is also a late-night attraction. The Eastgate Four Cinema is adding the Disney feature Song of the South to its playbill, which already offers Con-dorrnan (G) with Michael Crawford, Oliver Reed and Barbara Carrera. Deadly Blessing, (R), is also new there. Under the Rainbow and Victory have been given the axe. The South Park Cinema is adding Heavy Metal at the expense of Zorro, the Gay Blade.

(Poor Zorro is getting axed from the Shreve City Twin Cinemas also.) The Shreve City Twin Cinema is starting a movie titled Saturday the 14th, with Paula Prentiss. The PG-rated movie is a farcical version of the terror pictures (such as Friday the 13th) now popular. Continuing films at St. Vincent are Student Bodies, (Kristen Riter, Matt Goldsby and Richard Brando, R); Heavy Metal, (animated, with music by Black Sabbath, Cheap Trick, Devo, Stevie Nicks, Journey, Blue Oyster Cult and Grand Funk Railroad, R); Raiders of the Lost Ark, (Harrison Ford, Karen Allen, PG); The Empire Strikes Back, (Harrison Ford, Carrie Fisher, Mark Hamill, PG); Arthur, (Dudley Moore, John Gielgud, Liza Minnelli, R); Vie Fox and the Hound, (animated, with voice-overs by Pearl Bailey, Mickey Rooney and Jack Albertson, G); and Victory, (Sylvester Stallone, Michael Caine, Max von Sydow, PG.)
