42nd St Forever Trailerthon: Alamo Edition
From the Alamo Website: Free admission with DVD purchase. Just select the DVD option when you buy your ticket.
In the heart of Tim and Karrie League's Alamo Archives there is a small climate-controlled room. It is the unassuming home of one of the best trailer collections in the world. It is lined with filing drawers, labeled alphabetically, housing over 2000 trailers, ranging from...AND SARTANA KILLED THEM ALL to ZU: WARRIORS OF THE MAGIC MOUNTAIN. Regular patrons of the Alamo theaters get a chance to see the best of these trailers one or two at a time. People who aren't lucky enough to live nearby have never had the option to delve into this magic collection. Until now.
Synapse DVD has partnered with your favorite film programmers - us - to put together a fifth installment of their hugely popular 42nd Street Forever DVD series, this time focusing entirely on the Leagues' Alamo trailer archive. And as a very special treat, we are going to string up the actual film trailers and run them for you as a TRAILERTHON. Some of these trailers are for films you know and love, some are for movies that no one has seen in thirty or more years. And since these are the actual trailer elements you'll be seeing, you'll get all the grime, all the splices, and all the magic you can handle. From kung fu to insane kids' movies to softcore porn: do not miss this orgy of fun!
As a special bonus, you can buy a special ticket that includes the show and the DVD - all for the price of the DVD alone - $15!
