Santa Claus Conquers the Martians: Cinematic Titanic edition!
Details
We had the option of just looping back and forth between Santa Claus and Santa Claus Conquers the Martians for our Christmas episodes, but since Rifftrax and Cinematic Titanic are around, there's now more Christmas material available. First and foremost: Cinematic Titanic's re-riff of SCCM -- which certainly feels appropriate after having watched Rifftrax re-riff Manos, doesn't it?http://photos2.meetupstatic.com/photos/event/1/a/a/6/event_177066822.jpeg
Like Rifftrax Live, CT:SCCM features entirely new riffs with absolutely no repeats. Also, it does not feature "Patrick Swayze Christmas." However, our presentation, just like last year, will feature a cookie exchange, so if you'd like to make cookies and bring them, RSVP for both this and the cookie exchange!
We meet at the Irish American Heritage Center in the Fifth Province, the center’s pub located on the first floor (look for a group of folks wearing name badges). Sometimes there will be an event charging money at the door; that's not us. You're welcome to walk past them and come find us. The evening starts at 6:00p for dinner/drinks in the pub (menu consists of burgers, fish & chips, sandwiches, and Irish fare such as Sheperd's Pie). At around 7:30p, we go to the viewing room to watch the show. For those of you driving, the center offers plenty of free parking in its lot. If you still can't find us, go ahead and call or send me a text message at 815-535-3226 (after 6 PM on the day of only, please; there are several avenues to contact me every other day of the month).
I charge an event fee of $5 ($7 if there are fewer than 15 people in attendance) to help recoup costs for room rental, A/V equipment, DVDs and a personalized, preprinted name badge. If your guest(s) also would like a personalized preprinted name badge, please put his/her name into the comments section of your RSVP.
