What dies in Vegas ...
Headed to Las Vegas on Halloween weekend? Here's something to try, especially if you've already seen all of the haunted houses in Utah and missed seeing Slipknot when they performed here in the summer. Here is a press release from Fangoria Entertainment:
Fangoria Entertainment, publisher of the world’s best-selling horror magazine and industry leader of all things horror since 1979, is proud to announce the FANGORIA TRINITY OF TERRORS---a brand new multi-media horror event presented in association with 5B Artist Management and sponsored by Hot Topic®, Vegas.com® and Coffin Case®. The extravaganza fittingly takes place Halloween weekend, beginning Friday, October 30th and running through Sunday evening, November 1st at the beautiful Palms Casino Resort, home of Las Vegas' premier musical venue, the Pearl Concert Theater.
This unparalleled event will feature celebrity appearances, as well as signings, screenings, vendors, exhibitors, panel discussions, special FX make-up applications, video gaming, tattooing, collectibles, special VIP parties and much more. This all builds up to the special Halloween night performance in the Pearl Concert Theater by multi-platinum, Grammy Award-winning alternative metal masters, SLIPKNOT (above). Perhaps the most electrifying and dangerous band on the planet, they promise a truly unforgettable performance on Halloween night.
Guests appearing at the event include such titans as Roger Corman (DEATH RACE 2000, THE PIT AND THE PENDULUM), Malcolm McDowell (A CLOCKWORK ORANGE, ROB ZOMBIE’S HALLOWEEN), George A. Romero (NIGHT/DAWN/DAY OF THE DEAD), John Waters (PINK FLAMINGOS, SEED OF CHUCKY), Fairuza Balk (THE CRAFT, AMERICAN HISTORY X), Jeffrey Combs (RE-ANIMATOR, THE FRIGHTENERS), Ken Foree (DAWN OF THE DEAD, THE DEVIL’S REJECTS) Tony Todd (CANDYMAN, THE CROW), Dee Wallace (THE HOWLING, CUJO) and many many more.
As to the panel discussions and film screenings, this isn't your typical convention "panel room viewing"--panels and film screenings will be presented in the beautiful Brenden Theatres auditoriums, featuring state- of-the-art projection and sound. Brenden has 14 auditoriums at the Palms, equipped with IMAX, 3D and more. They are also the home of the renowned CineVegas Film Festival.
Over a dozen new films will be screened, including Ti West’s latest terrifying frightfest THE HOUSE OF THE DEVIL, the critically acclaimed documentary NIGHTMARES IN RED, WHITE AND BLUE and the world premiere of DARK HOUSE, starring Jeffrey Combs.
