I will be hosting The Japanese Monster (Kaiju) Super 8mm Spectacular on Friday The 13th! BWAHAHAHAHA! Primarily it will be 200ft Ken Film Digests. B/W Silent, B/W Sound, Color/Sound. The time has not been announced, but I'm guessing around 1:00 pm. It will last an hour. Will let ya'll know the exact time when I know. If you're in the Chicagoland area- This is a really fun con if you're a fan of Japanese monster Movies! Can't wait to use my new Chinon Sound 7500!
