Sounds pretty good! I might have to see about going. I'd definitely love to see TFC and Pieces on the big screen.

It'd be cool if you got to go, Mike. See TFC & Pieces in a theater would be pretty awesome.

Jimbo dancing & random kung-fu guy.

Another movie, another guest: May with director Lucky McKee.

I've seen Pieces at a marathon before. It goes well with a crowd.

I don't know if I'll be able to make it to this one, but I'd like to.

[MaDMaNMaRz]

Random kung-fu guy always makes for a pleasant evening. :)

It fuckin rocks living in Chicago! :D What an odd coincidence this is my favorite of the movies.

All we need now is Ted White to be there.

*sigh* Why doesn't Las Vegas ever get special events like this?

Sounds awesome, though. Hope all who attend have a blast, it sounds like it would easily be one.

The Winter Massacre lineup is looking pretty good. So far it's showing:

Friday the 13th
A Nightmare on Elm Street
Halloween III: Season of the Witch
Video Drome
The Monster Squad
It's Alive
Peeping Tom

Plus a few others. I can't wait to see what other films they have for that one.

[nottidelterrore]

Nice! I wonder if Larry Cohen will be there to talk about It's Alive?

[Cody]

The Winter Massacre already happened, back in February.

Betsy Palmer, Ari Lehman, and Harry Manfredini were there for F13. Robert Englund introduced NOES. Not sure about any other guests.

[MaDMaNMaRz]

Ah, I thought it was for this UPCOMING Winter. Damn.

[Lance Lives]

Damn, that winter line-up looked awesome. But come on Mike, random Kung Fu dude...on the big screen! How could you miss it?

[The 5th Golden Girl]

If anybody attends, try to ask Zito about Gordon's death. ;)

[MellySuicide]

Holy crap, I wish I had enough vacation time to go to this... :( Joe Zito is one of my favorite directors in the series.

[James M]

Of all the Friday directors, I'd probably most like to meet Zito. Aside from the "Judie Aronson in the water" story (and as they say, there's two sides to every story, and we weren't there), he has seemed like a cool guy in all the things I've seen or heard him in.
