    Brand New Print to be Shown at "Spooktacular" Event Source: Mark Nelson Official Site: Spooktacular: King Kong vs Godzilla

    The creators of New Hampshire`s first horror-host television show, SATURDAY FRIGHT SPECIAL (seen on public access stations throughout the United States), have announced their second live "Spooktacular" event at the Colonial Theatre in Keene, NH. On Friday, April 24th at 7PM, the Spooktacular will present an exceedingly rare screening of the classic KING KONG VS GODZILLA— so rare, in fact, that a brand new print has been struck for this screening, and Spooktacular audiences will be the first to see it. Screening Curator Mark Nelson explained, "We`re honored that Universal is striking a new print for this event, as their previous repertory print was lost in the fire last year. I`m THRILLED to be able to be doing another show like this, and can`t wait to see Kong and Godzilla duke it out on the big screen!" The Spooktacular will also feature vintage monster movie trailers and theater ads, in person visits from all of the SATURDAY FRIGHT SPECIAL crew, and tons of giveaways that include T-shirts and DVD copies of the new horror host documentary AMERICAN SCARY. Legendary comic artist Steve Bissette— known for his work with Alan Moore on Swamp Thing and for writing and drawing the first Dark Horse Godzilla King of the Monsters Special— will be donating six signed sets of his critically acclaimed dinosaur-themed title Tyrant plus and an original KING KONG VS GODZILLA sketch for the event. Tickets are $10 and will be available via The Colonial Theatre website and at the door.

    About us

     

    Welcome to SciFi Japan, your source for news and information on science fiction, horror, fantasy and action movies, TV shows and videos.. from classics and old favorites, to upcoming productions and home video releases, to the odd and obscure titles you may never have heard of!

    The mainstream press has largely ignored Japanese tokusatsu (special effects) films, and when the genre has been covered by American news outlets and television the results were often inaccurate and condescending. On the other hand, there have been some excellent fan publications and websites devoted to these films, but Japanese studios have been extremely reluctant to deal with fan groups due to concerns over copyright infringement issues (some fans advocate and promote activities such as video bootlegging and unlicensed downloading). With no direct access to studio news and photos, fan reporting has often been forced to rely on secondhand info and rumors.

    What was missing was a professionally run English news outlet working directly with Japanese studios and filmmakers. So, in 2006, we brought together a talented group of published authors and reporters, film historians, reviewers, festival organizers, and movie makers with ties to the Japanese film industry to launch SciFi Japan (More information on our key contributors can be found here). The only English language news site press registered with all of the major Japanese studios and production companies, SciFi Japan is able to consistently bring accurate and exclusive information on Japanese films and shows to English speaking/reading fans worldwide.

    This site also receives updates from licensees and distributors of Japanese movies in North America, the UK and Australia, and we’re press registered with the major American studios as well. So, while our primary focus remains Japanese llive action and anime news we will rinclude international productions in our "International SciFii" and. "Asian Cinema" sections.

    And in 2012, we launched SciFi JAPAN TV, a web series featuring coverage of tokusatsu events and interviews with Japanese filmmakers. Each episode was shot on location in Japan exclusively for SciFi Japan by the Gaijin Channel production team. 

    SciFi Japan has grown by leaps and bounds over these past few years, and the site will continue to improve. So please bookmark SFJ and check back with us frequently… we’ll do our best to make it worth the effort!
