Saturday, April 19th, 2008
 

Saturday, October 4, 2008 at 11:55pm

Location:  Tony’s Starlight Supperclub Lounge:  3728 NE Sandy Blvd, Portland, OR

Description

Actual performance time around 12:30am.
Please note that the concert is on Saturday night, not on Friday night!! www.hplfilmfestival.com for more details.
Come see us and Hellboy creator Mike Mignola, author Brian Lumley, and more Cthulhoid weirdness!

The H.P. Lovecraft Film Festival promotes the works of H.P. Lovecraft, literary horror, and weird tales through the cinematic adaptations by professional and amateur filmmakers. The festival was founded in 1995 by Andrew Migliore in the hope that H.P. Lovecraft would be rightly recognized as a master of gothic horror and his work more faithfully adapted to film and television.

Though the performance is Saturday night, at least some members of the Thickets will be in attendance for the entire festival.
