Groovy, Bruce Campbell to be at Flashback Weekend

Bruce Campbell (The EVIL DEAD series, TV’s “BURN NOTICE”) will be a special guest at the Flashback Weekend Horror Convention to be held at the Midway Drive-In located in Dixon, Illinois. Bruce will be signing autographs, conducting a lively Q & A and introducing a big screen presentation of his film “MY NAME IS BRUCE”. Bruce will be appearing Saturday Sept. 11, 2010.

The “EVIL DEAD” trilogy will also be screened (on the HUGE 90 foot wide) screen, including a restored 35mm print of “THE EVIL DEAD” (courtesy of Grindhouse Releasing).

There will also be the Charles Band and his Full Moon Road Show!

The weekend will include many special events, such as Charles Band and his Full Moon Roadshow. Charles Band released many cult classics at Drive-Ins during the 70′s and 80′s, and we’re thrilled to have him as a guest for his first Full Moon Roadshow appearance at a Drive-In! We can’t wait to see what wild and crazy things he has planned for a Drive-In audience!
