The festival’s Saturday night is a BIG ONE. 1988’s classic horror NIGHT OF THE DEMONS celebrates its 30th Anniversary with a cast & crew reunion, headed by its uber-talented director Kevin Tenney with Philip Tanzini, Cathy Podewell, Kevin Kutchaver, Kathy Zielinski, Steve Johnson, Lance Fenton, Billy Gallo & Hal Havins (more guests to be announced). It’s also a great chance to buy tickets for the celebrity raffle – fundraising for the wonderful VINCENT PRICE ART MUSEUM. And we’ll be topping it off with a fun 1980’s themed party – full bar (with ID). Best 1980’s Cosplayers win some amazing prizes.

And to add to the 80s fun we’re honored to have iconic 80’s MTV babe “Sister Christian” from the much loved NIGHT RANGER music video. It’s her first (and possibly only) event appearance in the world.

There’ll be vendors, snacks in the kitchen, celebrity raffles – plus lots of fun giveaways too.
