Thread: What GAR films have you seen on the BIG screen and how many times?

  1. #16
    Never seen Night 68, only saw Dawn projected at the 03 Pitt Comicon, got to see Day at a drive-in in 85, Night 90 in the 2nd run theatre at the "dirt mall" once, and Land 3 times. My father saw Night 68 & Dawn on a double feature midnight movie in 79 (on 2 hits of orange sunshine), so when the fam got it's first VCR (82/83), Night & Dawn were the first VHS tapes we owned.

    Sadly, none. No place around here tends to show old zombie movies on a regular basis and Land was one that I couldn't have gotten anybody to go with me.

    "Dawn": I'd guess about 10 or so times.

    "Day": Just once (because what was shown in theaters over here was the heavily censored German version).

    "Land": Three times.

    Other, "non-Dead" Romero films I saw in theaters included "Creepshow" (three times, I believe) and "The Dark Half" (once, which was more than enough).

    Some of the members here have listed seeing some of the films at a convention. I don't really count seeing a dvd shown on an outdoor screen or a 16mm version(Dawn at the 03 Pitt comicon) as seeing them on the "big screen".
    I've seen 35mm prints of NIGHT 68 and CREEPSHOW at special midnight shows. I saw DAY three or four times when I was 14 in October of 1985 when it played my hometown of Savannah, GA. I also saw CREEPSHOW 2 and NIGHT 90 when they first were released. I saw a 35mm print of BRUISER at an art school in Chicago in 2000. And of course LAND several times as well.

    I'd count that as a viewing since it was the Cannes Extended Edit. Was that ever screened other than Cannes?

    A DVD screening, yeah I wouldn't count that.

    That screen we watched it on was like one of those grade school portable screens. Same with the little projector. I don't count that viewing as being a big screen viewing. Big screen means a real movie theatre screen with a 35mm projector.
