It looked like 2018 was going to overload Pacific Northwest Horror/Sci Fi/Fantasy Fans, as EVERY DAY of the past two months had something to do, see or experience. So of course, I expected March come in like a lion...
Or, better still, a roaring Id Monster!
Springs on Altair IV are much more interesting.
Springs on Altair IV are much more interesting.
But it appears things are slowing down in March. But the events are going to be AWESOME! To start, check out the Buy Tickets Now section below for details on the 35mm screenings of Sugar Hill and It Came From Outer Space (in 3D and with star Kathleen Hughes in attendance) at The Hollywood Theatre in Portland at the end of the month. You'll also find details on some terrific Star Wars themed burlesque performances coming to British Columbia this month.
March is Sci Fi Month at the Laurelhurst Theater in Portland, and the first feature, Predator, is now playing. Frankenstein's Comicbook Swap and Comix Thing returns to Portland next weekend, and, in case you forgot, the Emerald City Comic Con is in Seattle this weekend.
Of course, you can always check the Horror/Sci Fi/Fantasy Calendar for all the latest on film festivals, conventions and many other events happening in 2018. It never hurts to plan ahead!
Remember, you can have your event listed on The Shadow Over Portland. Just email me at shadowoverportland@live.com with the details and promotional art, and I'll take care of the rest. It's easy and FREE!
And don't forget, if you attend any of the events listed below, let the organizers know you read about it at The Shadow Over Portland!!
