This is at the historic art deco theater The Pickwick, here in Park Ridge, a Northwest suburb of Chicago. The theater, handily, is right across from where I work, which is great because I’ll be working that day right up until the first movie starts. Anyone who wants to come into town for the show is welcome to crash at my place, although I’ll be working Thursday morning and Friday.
Thursday, July 12th.
1:00 King Kong (real one, of course)
3:00 Beast from 20,000 Fathoms (Yay!)
Dinner Break
7:00 Gorgo
9:00 Gamera the Invincible (the first Gamera movie, the b&w one)
I’m pretty sure each double feature requires a separate admission.
Friday at 10:30 at night will feature Godzilla King of the Monsters (the American cut of the original film; the one with Raymond Burr), while Saturday’s 10:30 PM show is to be announced.
