Godzilla Night 3: Godzilla vs. Biollante in San Leandro, CA

[bigknif]

Bay Area Film Events and The Historic Bal Theatre present our third annual GODZILLA NIGHT on June 28!

Our main feature for the evening is the ground-breaking 1989 Godzilla vs. Biollante. A scientist takes the DNA of his recently deceased daughter, a plant he developed to grow in extreme environments and a Godzilla cell and combines them to create one of The Big G's most impressive foes! This was special effects director Koichi Kawakita's debut in the Godzilla series and would lead to him ushering Godzilla through the Heisei films from 1989 through 1995's Godzilla vs. Destroyah.

In addition to the movie, we have a full evening of live entertainment, kicking off with Big Pimp Jones playing a live concert of your favorite music from the Godzilla films!

Mark Jaramillo returns this year to present rare independent Japanese monster films! You think you've seen all the Japanese monsters there are? Think again! Some of the best Kaiju movies in recent years are coming from fans who grew up on the classics and are now creating classics of their own!

Steve Ryfle, author of "Japan's Famous Mon-Star" and producer/commentator on Godzilla DVDs from Classic Media, Media Blasters and others, will be live in the theater this year to discuss upcoming projects, the history of Godzilla and more!

John Desentis will be Skyping in to talk about an upcoming tribute to Godzilla maestro Akira Ifukube, in which he will be presenting Ifukube's music live, played by a full symphony orchestra in Chicago!

Sean Linkenback will be Skyping in to discuss his new book, reproducing classic Japanese monster movie posters from all over the world!

Plus, we have the return of The Great Godzilla Raffle! You don't have to be present to win and tickets will be sold starting soon on line and at the show! We have an amazing line up of prizes for this year's raffle, so you won't want to miss out whether you are coming to the show or not!

And, as is traditional for any BAFE show, we will have prizes, merchandise vendors, displays and many more surprises!

So mark your calendars, get ready to celebrate the 60th anniversary of Godzilla and party like it's 1954!!
