Don't believe me? Just look at this glowing review we received for our first issue:

our very own Paracinema Magazine table. So come on down and join us for what is sure to be a fun filled weekend.
I mean come on, Robert Englund will be there! If that’s not a good time, I don’t know what is.

We got to see the New York premiere of The King of Kong: A Fistfull of Quarters at
The Museum of the Moving Image. This entertaining documentary tells the story of a legendary video game champion (Billy Mitchell) and science teacher (Steve Wiebe) vying for the highest all time score in Donkey Kong. My one sentence overview of this film doesn't quite capture it's greatness. It's a funny and in-depth look at what some folks will do to stay on top. The director Seth Gordon & producer Ed Cunningham attended the screening, along with the relatable crowd favorite, Steve Wiebe.

After the film there was a short Q&A and Donkey Kong demonstration. I don't think anyone in the theatre had a bad word to say about the film we had seen, Steve Wiebe and the film makers nearly got a well deserved standing ovation. You don't have to be a gamer to enjoy this film, it's quality doesn't come from the subject matter...but rather from the great story and characters. SEE THIS FILM!

The King of Kong: A Fistfull of Quarters opens in select cities on August 17th...and read more about it in Paracinema's first issue due out in October.

Also don't miss history being made when Steve Wiebe goes for the all time high score record in Donkey Kong on Tuesday August 14th at Dave & Buster's
in Times Square, New York City!

Considering Horror Panel
