That's a nice little lineup. Shame I'm not in Chicago then.

A friend told me about this. Sounds like a lot of fun. Too bad I have other commitments that weekend or I totally would be there.

That lineup is swell! Flash Gordon was a highlight of a recent marathon. Dark Star and Planet of the Vampires are both overdue for repeats in Ohio, and we have all been aching for TheyLive for years as well. Q was promised a return at the horror marathon after being bumped, but maybe they can just bring him to the Sci-Fi instead, I wouldn't be opposed to that. :)

Do they have a website? Also, wondering if they are all 35mm prints?

Usually everything is a print. Last year's horror marathon did play a DVD of Dark Night of the Scarecrow and From Beyond. I think Scarecrow because it was a TV movie and there weren't prints. From Beyond because I think the host wanted to play the director's cut. I'm glad Bruce played a print. Very few trailers.
