This is something I never thought I’d get to do! I managed to get tickets to Frightfest’s All Nighter, to be held at the ICA in London in early November.

It all kicks off at 9pm with a showing of Diary of the Dead, introduced by the only and only George Romero himself. One of my personal heroes!

After the showing, George will be doing a Q&A. And after that there are showings of:

• Planet Terror – half of the ill-fated Grindhouse project, and something I’m looking forward to seeing on the big screen.
• Savage Streets – which will probably be crap, so I might nod off during this one.
• Frontiers  – looking forward to this one.
• Inside – sounds intriguing, but I think this starts at about 5am, so God knows what state I’ll be in.

Should be a great night’s viewing! Assuming I can stay awake. I’ve booked the day off work, and will attempt to not get up until 1pm or so. That way I should just about make it.

I’m going to try to LiveBlog from the screenings too.
