This Weekend in San Francisco: Godzillafest 2019



As of 5:00 p.m. Pacific Standard Time on August 23, 2019, Godzillafest is back, bombarding San Francisco's Balboa Theatre with three days of big screen fun.



That means 12 classic Godzilla movies on two screens!



Kicking off the festivities will be Frankenstein Conquers The World and War Of The Gargantuas.





Also on Saturday's bill: Godzilla Vs. Megalon, Godzilla Vs. Mechagodzilla, Terror Of Mechagodzilla, Son Of Godzilla and Destroy All Monsters.



There will also be two of my all-time favorites in the genre, Godzilla Vs. Monster Zero and Godzilla Vs. Mothra.





Special guests will include Michael Dougherty, who will m.c. a special screening of the latest in the incorrigible fire-breathing Thunder Lizard's saga, Godzilla King of the Monsters, on Saturday night.





Hosting on both Friday and Saturday Night: Lord Blood-Rah of Lord Blood-Rah's Nerve Wrackin' Theatre and Creatures-Con.



Megalon and Mechagodzilla get the thunder lizard spotlight as the festival progresses and Sunday's lineup will include Ghidorah The Three Headed Monster!










The Balboa Theatre is located on 3630 Balboa Street, between 37th and 38th Avenues, in San Francisco's Outer Richmond district. For more info, go to the Bay Area Film Events website.
