"So Joe" you might say, "why DR. STRANGELOVE at a Horror Marathon?" Well, I saw STRANGELOVE for the first time at that spring's 9th Annual Sci-Fi Marathon (the final edition at our dear, departed Drexel North-R.I.P.), and needless to say, it affected my friends and I in a most profound manner. Plus, I didn't know if I would ever organize one of these puppies again, so I threw in a bunch of films I loved (and had copies of, which was also a crucial programming factor at that first event.) Little did I know what the future held... (Neff)

Polaroid vs. VHS658 viewsThen-Wright State film student Scott Cozzolino, a longtime Marathon ally and one of my cronies, set out to film a documentary about Bruce and the Marathon at this year's event. It didn't work out quite like he envisioned, but he still managed to capture a lot of prime footage of the Horrorthon experience. And to look quite dapper while doing so. This pic is Bruce gaining some much needed revenge after being followed around for 26 hours. Hmmmm.....gee, I wonder if we'll be seeing some of that footage sometime soon.... (Neff)
Back of flier for 1999 Marathon658 views*No one seemed to get my "Beechwold-aged" joke in the Warning section (i.e. the Drexel North was in the Beechwold section of Clintonville, we had beer at a Marathon for the first time, Beechwood aged, etc.) Oh well. (Neff)
