Nothing beats sitting in a darkened theatre with images of fantasy, pulpitude, and fun projected on a large screen. All of us genre film fans were most likely seduced into a lifetime of fandom by this experience. Frankly, while TV&#8217;s are getting better, nothing beats a mitt full of buttery popcorn coupled with a good B Movie flickering gleefully on the screen.<\/p>\n<p>Drawing from our experience of running the B Movie celebration these past 6 years and combined with our work on the Bmovienation.com website, we are pleased to announce the launch of the B Movie Nation Movie Roadshow.<\/p>\n<p>Beginning in May of this year, we, in partnership with the Independent Theatre Alliance, will be launching a summer B Movie tour. With over 52 theatres and drive-ins already signed up, our goal is to bring back fun to the movies. Films to be included will be the 30th Anniversary presentation of Jim Wynorski&#8217;s first opus &#8220;The Lost Empire&#8221;, &#8220;Gila!&#8221;, a loving remake of the 1959 classic &#8220;The Giant Gila Monster&#8221;, &#8220;Resurrection&#8221;, and many more. So grab your blankets, throw your buddies into the trunk, sneak into your closest drive-in and grab a giant slice of Americana, The B Movie.<\/p>\n<p>Stay tuned for more announcements. Also, we are actively seeking the help of local B Movie Ambassadors to spread the word, generate excitement, and gently lead the American population back into the warm embrace of the B Movie.<\/p>\n<p>Email us if you are interested in participating.
