Fathom Events is bringing a classic adventure that will keep you riveted to your seat. TCM Big Screen Classics Presents King Kong in a theater near you March 15.
Ladies and gentlemen, I’m here tonight to tell you a very strange story — a story so strange that no one will believe it — but, ladies and gentlemen, seeing is believing. And we — my partners and I — have brought back the living proof of our adventure, an adventure in which twelve of our party met horrible death. And now, ladies and gentlemen, before I tell you any more, I’m going to show you the greatest thing your eyes have ever beheld.
Ladies and gentlemen, I’m here to relay fantastic news! News so wonderful that you’d be a fool to miss it! Ladies and gentlemen, seeing this on the big screen will be an experience of a lifetime. Few people alive can brag that they’ve seen King Kong (1933) in a theater, munching on popcorn while Kong tears a Tyrannosaurus’ jaws apart before gently lifting Fay Wray with his crane hand for a closer look at his beautiful offering.
Fathom Events has given monster movie fans some excellent opportunities to revisit classics with showings of Alien (1979), Ghostbusters (1984), and even The Iron Giant (1999). They’ve even thrown us a rubber bone with goofy monsters in The Giant Spider Invasion (1975), partnering with RiffTrax for a live event to mock Octaman (1971). Sadly, I missed the opportunity to see The Wizard of Oz (1939) when Fathom Events presented it nationwide for the 80th anniversary in 2019.
We have an opportunity to see the beast scale the Empire State Building the way people saw it for the first time. Most Kong fans know how important it will be to see the original black and white King Kong on the big screen, but if you’re a casual fan who flipped to it on Thanksgiving growing up, or caught it now and again during a New Year’s Day marathon with some other monster classics, you’ll need to experience it the way it was meant to be experienced.
Get your tickets now! Get dressed in your ’30s best and see it with the rest of us crazy giant monster fanatics on March 15, 2020.
He was a king and a god in the world he knew, but now he comes to civilization merely a captive — a show to gratify your curiosity. Ladies and gentlemen, look at Kong, the Eighth Wonder of the World.
