PRESENTATION OF SHOCK CERTIFICATES

The schedule looks good. Putting Robogeisha at the early Sunday morning is a good choice so if I doze off during the middle of the night I won't miss it. Will the doors be open a half hour early so anyone can put their lunch order in before the madness start?

Do you know when the doors will open? 11-11:30?

Ideally, we'd like to get the doors open by 11-11:15. That would give everyone more than enough time to get settled in, reconnect with old friends, glare menacingly at old foes and (most importantly) buy lots of concessions and OFFICIAL SHOCK AROUND THE CLOCK MERCHANDISE!

Note that I said "ideally", as the fickle finger of fate often pushes that time back for various reasons. But we'll try our best.

Awesome. Thanks!

Good since it takes 20 to 25 minutes for the food order I can get settle in.

Good thing I fill out the order forms ahead of time.

I kind of want to cry a little because I can't go... Have a blast everyone and I hope to see you in April for the Sci-fi marathon. Bruce and Joe have outdone themselves with a great lineup this year!!! I'll be popping in some of those DVDs this weekend.

He could ended the Horror thon with Martyrs.

And make it easy for you to skip it? Ha! As if.

The fact that it's even too early to sleep through is disappointing.

I might sit through part of Martyrs just to see the crowd reaction to the film.

In my opinion Robogeisha is going to be the WTF movie of the Second Annual Shock Around the Clock. SPOILER ALERT When watching the trailer again I did see lactation and anal bleeding.

I am EXTREMELY excited about this year's horror marathon line up. I have never seen so many classic films in one line up, not to sound like one of the previous posters, but, it's true! LOL This line up is THE ULTIMATE and I can't believe that one of my FAVORITE FILMS OF ALL TIME will be shown at this marathon: John Carpenter's PRINCE OF DARKNESS! (screams like an excited school girl) They saved the best for last! I know that a lot of people don't care for it. I don't see HOW when it's chock full of greatness! I am a truly hardcore horror fan and I tend to love movies that everyone else hates (Halloween 3: Season Of The Witch, Irreversible, the remakes of Black Christmas, The Omen, Dawn of the Dead, etc.) A movie REALLLLY!!!! has to suck in order for me to hate it (The Blair Witch Project, the remake of Psycho). As for hardcore, shocking films like Martyrs, Irreversible, etc., here is my attitude towards them: BRING IT ON!!! I LOVE films that are extremely shocking, weird, perverse, disturbing, insane, strange, bizarre, outlandish, extremely graphic, etc. I LIVE for them. I want to see a movie so disturbing that it makes me vomit and then gives me nightmares!
