I've heard the plot from the NPR review of it and I'm with you - sad to see it not on Mars. I don't know what some complain about; I really enjoyed the original film. I know it could be considered 'campy' but really, not so much compared to some films of similar time (hello, Dragnet remake, I'm looking at you!). Anyway, I appreciate your viewpoint and agree.
4 day with preview night was 175, 4 day withou preview night was 150, and it was $42 for single days.
The sale is over though. It was a limited presale open only to 2012 attendees.
I'm not sure when the general public goes on sale, but keep an eye on their website, because when they say the day, and time, you have to make sure you're at a computer EXACTLY on that time and date, to the SECOND, or you don't have a chance.
I had a bad feeling there'd be no Kuato... When I saw the cast was entirely maxe up of pretty, but sub-par actors, I knew what mind of remake it'd be. I will wait to rent it.
I should be at Wizard World on Saturday this year!!!!! I would love to be there more, but I have a stinky full time job that I just started, so I can't really take the time off. Hope to see you!
