On Saturday , September 25 , 2021 THE REEL IMAGE owner Steve Osborne had the WORLD PREMIERE showings to a group of avid film fans at his annual Outdoor Movie Theater presentation in Kettering , Ohio .
Those LUCKY to attend were : Terrence Brundage , Bob Statzer , James Trombino , Chris Cottrill , Bill Phelps III , Debbie Zornes , Jonathan Hancock , Bob Becker , Aaron Coates , Greg Perry and myself along with Steve Osborne ( the projectionist ) .
BOTH digests were very well received ; GODZILLA , KING OF THE MONSTERS absolutely amazed the viewers as to the seamless flow of the soundtrack and film editing . In fact Greg Perry had NEVER seen the original full - length feature of it and commented " This was probably one of THE BEST digests he had ever seen ! " " It was so atmospheric and the scenes in the flow of action built to the exciting climax ! " .
Bill Phelps III made the comment , " This digest's color was just so vivid , much better than I expected of KING KONG VS. GODZILLA . "
Along with the digests Steve also ran some cartoons , ( one was an old musical of BOTTLES , JUMPIN' JUPITER WITH PORKY AND SYLVESTER ) , Coming attractions ( One was GOLDENEYE ) , The Blackhawk THE LIVE GHOST version and The Disney excellent color color ( NOT FADED ! ) version of DINOSAURS. Also a very dated ( but interesting ) short called " Look at Life " about the music scene of the 1960's in England , after THE BEATLES .
I introduced the show and fielded some questions from the audience - one of the most asked was - " What's being released next ?? "
It was necessary to explain that , based upon sales , that would determine any future releases made by me . HOWEVER , at this time , I DO HAVE SEVERAL others that are scheduled for release by the end of this year ; BOTH in color .
It was a trip - and an adventure that was WELL WORTH everyone's time - AND FUN !
After the " Main Event " ended , Those of us " Hard - Core " film buffs gathered downstairs into Steve's BEAUTIFUL Theater and we watched the Original Answer prints of JAWS , DRACULA and a sound / color 16mm cut of DRACULA HAS RISEN FROM THE GRAVE .
Bill and I confer about this evenings presentations......
Greg Perry and myself caught off-guard by the cameraman !
Besides myself , as being a traveler from far away ( Florida ) , Greg traveled from far away too . Can you guess from where ??
THANKS TO STEVE OSBORNE and his family and all those who were there that cold September night to celebrate SUPER 8MM Film !!
