HAPPY HORRORS OF THANKSGIVING!

Happy Horrors of Thanksgiving! As those of you who attended this year's SHOCK AROUND THE CLOCK well know, we had some technical snafus, so we didn't get all that we had hoped up on the screen. To make it up to the loyal Marathoid throng, Bruce and Joe and the Grandview's David and Jennifer are delighted to present the complete batch of trailers as they had been intended to be shown. It'll be the late show at the newly reopened Grandview Theatre on Friday and Saturday, December 4th and 5th, and it'll be FREE.

There'll be about three hours of trailers with an intermission thrown in. Watch grandviewtheatre.net or the official Marathon website forum for the showtime, somewhere in the 11PM to midnight range. Hopefully the Grandview's liquor license will be in place for those not driving. We may have a few remaining SHOCK AROUND THE CLOCK posters and shirts available for sale, and see what kind of prizes we can drag back from swag hell.

So please stop by. Bring that friend who you've been trying to convince to come to a Marathon and give them a taste of our special warped cinemadness. It's free and open to all. And please buy some concessions to support the Grandview.

IT'S OVER!

First, they brought you fifteen years of the greatest round the clock fright film festivals of our time!

Then, they put their two heads together for a five year run of all-night cinematic insanity!

Now, Bruce Bartoo and Joe Neff return to their roots and bring back the dead with...


SHOCK AROUND THE CLOCK

The 1st Annual Ohio 24-Hour Horror Marathon
at the re-animated Grandview Theatre (1247 Grandview Ave.)
from noon October 17 - noon October 18, 2009.


IN PERSON!
STUART GORDON - LEGENDARY DIRECTOR OF HORROR CLASSICS LIKE RE-ANIMATOR, FROM BEYOND, AND MANY OTHERS!


Yes, we're pleased to welcome back esteemed director and survivor of the 1992 24-Hour Horror Marathon Stuart Gordon as our guest of honor. As part of our celebration of Stuart's work, we’ll be screening his acclaimed Showtime Masters of Horror episode The Black Cat (starring Re-animator’s Jeffrey Combs as Edgar Allan Poe) and a 35mm print of his classic Lovecraftian splatterfest From Beyond. We've also offered Stuart the opportunity to select a film of his choice for inclusion in the lineup, so after an audience Q+A session, he'll introduce a screening of Gaspar Noe's 2002 revenge shockerr Irréversible.

As part of this headlong plunge into terror, we’ll also be offering a cornucopia of creepy cinematic delights. READ MORE...
