SPECIAL FILM SCREENINGS PRESENTED BY SHOUT! FACTORY AT COMIC-CON
LUC BESSON’S THE EXTRAORDINARY ADVENTURES OF ADELE BLANC-SEC (Friday, July 19 at 7 PM, Marriott Marquis Marina)
Journey
into an awe-inspiring world of action fantasy and visual wonder with
popular French comics heroine Adèle Blanc-Sec as she leaps from the
pages to the screen! Directed and produced by world-renowned filmmaker
Luc Besson (The Fifth Element) and adapted from Eisner Award winner Jacques Tardi’s celebrated French classic comic book series, THE EXTRAORDINARY ADVENTURES OF ADELE BLANC-SEC features a stellar cast of Louise Bourgoin (Anne Fontaine’s The Girl From Monaco), Mathieu Amalric (Quantum Of Solace), Gilles Lellouche (Love Me If You Dare), Jean-Paul Rouve (La Vie En Rose), and Laure de Clermont-Tonnerre (The Diving Bell And The Butterfly).
The
year is 1912. This is the story of a intrepid young reporter Adèle
Blanc-Sec and her quest for the power of life over death. Her journey
takes her to distant lands to face many dangers beneath the sands. She
will go to any length to achieve her aims, including sailing to Egypt to
tackle mummies of all shapes and sizes. Meanwhile in Paris, a 136
million-year-old pterodactyl egg on display in the natural history
museum has mysteriously hatched, and the creature subjects the city to a
reign of terror from the skies. But nothing fazes Adele Blanc-Sec whose
adventures include many more extraordinary surprises…
THE
EXTRAORDINARY ADVENTURES OF ADÈLE BLANC-SEC arrives August 13, 2013 on
DVD and on two-disc BLU-RAY™ COMBO PACK from Shout! Factory, in
collaboration with EuropaCorp.

COCKNEYS VS. ZOMBIES (Saturday, July 20 at 8 PM, Marriott Marquis Marina)
Directed by Matthias Hoene and written by James Moran (Torchwood, Severance), COCKNEYS VS. ZOMBIES boasts an impressive British cast of Harry Treadaway (The Lone Ranger), Michelle Ryan (Bionic Woman), Alan Ford (Snatch, Lock, Stock And Two Smoking Barrels), Honor Blackman (Goldfinger, Doctor Who), Georgia King (The New Normal), Rasmus Hardiker (Your Highness, Lead Balloon), Jack Doolan (The Green Green Grass), Dudley Sutton (Lovejoy) and Richard Briers (The Good Life).
The
Bow Bells Care Home is under threat and the McGuire's – Andy, Terry,
and Katy – need to find some way to keep their grandfather and his
friends in the East End, where they belong. But, when you're robbing a
bank, zombie invasions make things a lot harder. And let's face it, they
need all the help they can get when their bank-robbing experts turn out
to be Mental Mickey and Davey Tuppance. As contractors to an East
London building site unlock a 350-year old vault full of seriously
hungry zombies, the East End has suddenly gone to hell and the Cockney
way of life is under threat. Equipped with all the guns and ammo they
can carry, it's up to the gang to save the hostages, their grandfather,
and East London from zombie Armageddon.
COCKEYS VS. ZOMBIES will be released simultaneously in theaters and day-and-date on VOD Friday, August 2, 2013.

MYSTERY SCIENCE THEATER 3000: THE MOVIE (Thursday, July 18 at 6:15 PM at Marriott Marquis Marina)
After six seasons of sublime, nerdy fun on television, the cult comedy series Mystery Science Theater 3000 took to the big screen in 1996 for its deliriously funny takedown of the 1955 alien invasion epic This Island Earth.
Evil
scientist Dr. Clayton Forrester explains the premise at the start: in
his quest for world domination, he devises a scheme to subject the human
race to the worst movies ever made. He tests his plan on Mike Nelson,
the sole human aboard an Earth-orbiting space station known as the
Satellite of Love. But our hero and his two robot sidekicks turn a
lemon into a much funnier lemon by showering This Island Earth
with wisecracks, ridicule and general silliness. The human race may
never be rid of cheesy movies, but when the critics are this nutty, who
cares?
Starring
Michael J. Nelson, Trace Beaulieu, Kevin Murphy, Jim Mallon; Based on
the television series by Joel Hodgson; Produced and directed by Jim
Mallon. Shout! Factory will release MYSTERY SCIENCE THEATER 3000: THE
MOVIE Collector’s Edition Blu-ray+DVD combo pack on September 3, 2013.
A BOY AND HIS DOG (Thursday, July 18 at 11 PM at Marriott Marquis Marina)
Directed by L.Q. Jones and based on the award-winning novella by acclaimed science-fiction author Harlan Ellison, A Boy And His Dog
is a dark and often wickedly funny trip through a post-apocalyptic
world, where the friendship between a boy and his dog is the only
currency that matters
World
War IV lasted only five days but has ravaged Earth, leaving its
survivors to battle for food, shelter and companionship in a post-atomic
wasteland. This celebrated sci-fi tale follows the exploits of Vic
(Don Johnson) and his sardonic telepathic dog, Blood, as they struggle
through the barren wilderness in search of food and women. In the midst
of their meager existence, Vic and Blood encounter Quilla June (Susanne
Benton), a dubious young woman who lures them into a surreal city deep
beneath the Earth’s surface. Initially elated to find a colony of
survivors, Vic and Blood quickly learn this city is not what it seems.
Winner of the 1976 Hugo Award for Best Dramatic Presentation, A Boy And His Dog stars Don Johnson, Susan Benton and Alvy Moore; produced by Alvy Moore; Written for the screen and directed by L.Q. Jones.
On August, 6th, 2013 Shout! Factory will debut this off-beat cult film classic for the first time on Blu-ray.
CAPTAIN AMERICA 1990 Action Super Hero Movie Classic (Thursday, July 18 at 9PM at the Convention Center screening room)
A film by Albert Pyun and starring Matt Salinger, Ronny Cox, Ned Beatty, Darren McGavin, Michael Nouri and Scott Paulin
Long
ago, Steve Rogers (Matt Salinger) was a true American hero, a brave
super soldier created by scientists to help the Allied Forces fight for
freedom in World War II. But during a battle with the sinister Red Skull
(Scott Paulin), he was lost, entombed in ice. Decades later, his body
has been found and revived and Steve must again don the mantle of
Captain America to help save the President of the United States (Ronny
Cox) — and the world — from his arch-nemesis once and for all.
CAPTAIN AMERICA Collector’s Edition Blu-ray™ is available now from Shout! Factory.

the same way to send him back! Known for its witty dialogue,
tongue-in-cheek humor and satire-filled plots, this quirky series was

My Little Pony: Equestria Girls
My Little Pony Equestria Girls, the full-length feature introducing an exciting dimension to the incredibly popular My Little Pony brand, is coming to Blu-ray (Blu-ray, DVD + digital copy) combo and on DVD in the US and Canada on August 6th from Shout! Factory Kids, in collaboration with Hasbro Studios.
When
Twilight Sparkle’s crown is stolen from the Crystal Empire, she pursues
the thief, Sunset Shimmer, into an alternate world where she finds
herself turned into…a teenage girl! To regain her crown and return to
Equestria, Twilight must learn how to fit into this strange, new world
and defeat Sunset Shimmer in a competition to become crowned Princess of
the Fall Formal at Canterlot High. Luckily, she will have the
assistance of Spike and five teenage girls who remind her of a certain
group of ponies back home.
MYSTERY SCIENCE THEATER 3000: Volume XXVII
This summer, throw a mad monster party with the motley crew of the Satellite of Love as they celebrate the release of MYSTERY SCIENCE THEATER 3000: XXVII! Available
July 23rd from Shout! Factory, this 4-DVD box set is a schlock-tastic
monster movie mash featuring four episodes never-before-available on
DVD: The Slime People, Rocket Attack USA, Village Of the Giants and The Deadly Mantis. There
may be no finer—and certainly no funnier--meditation on monsters than
this collection of episodes from the cult comedy series. As food for
thought, we are served subterranean slime people, giant praying
mantises, Soviet spies and--perhaps the most terrifying of all--enormous
teenagers from the disturbing menu of America’s twisted psyche.
Battling these Goliaths for us with their slingshots of sass and
silliness are Joel, Mike and their robot henchmen, Tom Servo and Crow.
The monsters are gruesome and the movies even more so, but the riffs are
risible and retaliatory, proving definitively that revenge is actually a
dish best served funny.
