Hey folks Harry here with a cool as Clive Owen shooting all types of shit for a couple of hours can be. That's right - we're doing a SHOOT EM UP screening with director Michael Davis - who has a special, just for this screening treat he's been personally working up - and then afterwards - you get to shoot people... INCLUDING - Tim League... and possibly QUINT or MASSAWYRM! I'd volunteer, but it's harder shooting the side of a barn, than shooting me. Anyway - here's the details below...
New Line Cinemas, Fantastic Fest and Ain't It Cool News present: Shoot Em Up! Sneak preview with live human target afterparty! Director Michael Davis live in person! Alamo Drafthouse Village Thursday, August 30, 2007 7:00 PM The Movie: A gritty, fast-paced action thriller, Shoot 'Em Up kicks into high gear with a memorable opening scene and never relents. Clive Owen stars as Mr. Smith, a mysterious loner who teams up with an unlikely ally (Monica Belluci) to protect a newborn baby from a determined criminal (Paul Giamatti) who hunts them throughout the bowels of the city. The Event: I don't know about you folks, but after watching this level of relentless ballistic fury, there's only one thing that can cap off the evening correctly: tipping back a few beers and unleashing a few rounds at a live target. Join us after the screening for the "live human target" afterparty. Successfully shoot the live human target (with paintball rounds) and win fabulous prizes. Everyone at the screening will have a chance to shoot at three live human targets who will be heckling your abilities while trying to avoid your fire. The human targets will also be tossing around a baby. Shoot the baby for a chance at the grand prize! (Note, targets will be live humans, but in the interest of safety, the baby will not be alive). Tickets for the Shoot 'Em Up sneak preview are available on a first come/first serve basis to Fantastic Fest badge holders. Tickets are free, but if you are a registered Fantastic Fest badge holder, you can reserve your seat by prepurchasing a food and drink voucher at the Alamo Website. If there are still tickets available, they will be made available to the general public on Wednesday, August 29.
