Heads-up, Marathoids ... the Host Organism has just given me license to publish the (tentative) schedule for the upcoming 29th Annual Ohio Science-Fiction Marathon. Read on, true believer ...

Please note, we've had a last-minute change in the lineup. WAR OF THE SATELLITES has replaced THE CREEPING UNKNOWN due to the vile actions of a certain Latvian dictator (and his plucky team of go-getter midget acrobats) who shall remain nameless. That and aliens did it.

THE SCHEDULE SO FAR (subject to change):

NOON - ATTACK THE BLOCK
2:15 - BRAINSTORM
4:30 - The Ohio Premiere of THE CAPTAINS
6:30 - The 29th Annual Costume Contest
6:45 - The Columbus Premiere of ELECTROMA
8:30 - THE GREEN SLIME
10:40 - The Ohio Premiere of THE LAST PUSH
12:30 - BATTLE ROYALE
2:45 - The Ohio Premiere of MANBORG
4:30 - SOURCE CODE
6:40 - WAR OF THE SATELLITES
8:15 - REPTILICUS
10:10 - THEY LIVE

With DUCK DODGERS, SPACEBOY, the return of GRAVITY and more!!!

Contests, prizes, Hall of Fame voting, Certificates for survivors and MORE ... MORE ... MORE!!!

No seriously, there will be more. T-shirts, concessions, trailers, shorts, all kinds of stuff.

We now return you to your regularly scheduled marathoid insanity ...

Woo-hoo!

So, I'll miss Attack the Block. Regrettable, but in a fairly awesome line-up, that was one of the films I was most willing to miss.

Thanks!

First witch version of Battle Royale will be screen?

I'll have to stand in the back or doze during Battle Royale to make it for Manborg. I already watched Battle Royale last night just in case.

I'm glad that Gravity is comming back.

It's very unfortunate that QUATERMASS XPERIMENT (ENEMY FROM SPACE) is being replaced by WAR OF THE SATELLITES. WAR played Boston and is a fun B-movie, but QUATERMASS is a classic.

What was the real Xplanation for it not showing????

The lineup looks FANTASTIC. I'm just SOOOO glad that Electroma, Source Code, Battle Royale and They Live haven't been replaced! Whew!

Not sure. Some issue with print availability, I think. Bruce will probably fill us all in at some point.

I am very happy to see THE GREEN SLIME has been given the Primetime Slot, also if ELECTROMA turns out to be a dud atleast we all know that it's being followed by a fun Sci-Fi Classic that is sure to wake everyone up.
