Come Play With Us | 'The Shining' at The Timberline Lodge (October 31st 2008)

The Alamo Drafthouse in Austin, TX is putting on a special screening of The Shining up in Oregon at the Timberline Lodge where Stanley Kubrick's film was actually shot. In honor of they event, they've commissioned Jeff Kleinsmith to design a new poster ( you can buy one here:http://www.mondotees.com/)
The event takes place on October 31st and tickets go on sale on October 10th.You can find more information over on the official website for the event here: http://www.shiningparty.com/.
There are various ticket packages which include admittance to the party at the lodge that evening. At the stroke of midnight, all VIP Overnight guests are required to return to their rooms and turn on their TVs for a very special screening of The Shining. All VIP guests will be watching The Shining simultaneously, but in the privacy of their own rooms.
The Shining is one of my favorite movies and I have actually stayed at the Timberline Lodge twice now. Although I have plans to see Madonna in Vancouver for the Halloween weekend (VERY excited!!!!), this would have been a great event to attend!
