Blood, Brains and Zombies will receive the 3D Stereoscopic treatment at the 5th Annual Johnny Ramone Tribute on the 3rd of October. The event which is set to be staged at the ‘Hollywood Forever Cemetery’ in California, will host the 3D global premiere screening of George Romero’s classic horror, Night of the Living Dead 3D.  NVIDIA will also be there to show off showcase their 3D Vision stereoscopic 3D technology and give attendees a chance to play this year’s hottest horror game, Resident Evil 5 in 3D.  The event will kick off at dusk with a showing of the full-length, 1977 Ramones concert, It’s Alive, screened outdoors against a 24-foot mausoleum wall. Actress Rose McGowan (Grindhouse) will then introduce the Night of the Living Dead in 3D.

Tickets are publicly available for a cheap $10 per person minimum donation (which includes a pair of commemorative 3D glasses) with proceeds benefiting the Johnny Ramone research fund.

Aside from the whole disrespecting the dead thing, I think a horror movie screened in 3D at a cemetery sounds like fun (if not down right scary). Apparently Picnic dinners, drinks (including alcohol), pillows, blankets and small chairs are permitted. I would also recommend taking some garlic and perhaps a stake or two to fend off zombies. :)  -Ed

PRESS RELEASE:

Resident Evil 5 is the latest PC game to take advantage of NVIDIA 3D Vision technology, which transforms standard games into eye-popping, jump-out-of-your-seat, 3D experiences. Not only did its creator Capcom design “out-of-screen-effects” to scare the daylights out of gamers, they also rendered all of the game’s cinematic cut-scenes with the same immersive 3D effect. The critics have raved about the game running on NVIDIA 3D Vision. Said Jeff Haynes of IGN.com, “Resident Evil 5 was designed to fully take advantage of 3D, [with] certain segments of the game piercing the digital ‘fourth wall’ with a sense of negative depth that is quite incredible.”

“Night of the Living Dead was one of Johnny Ramone’s top ten horror film favorites of all time,” said John Cafiero, chief of staff of the Johnny Ramone Army, an official entity acting on behalf of the seminal punk rocker and his Estate preserving the icon’s memory and legacy. “What better way to celebrate the world premiere of this incredible flick in 3D than to give people a virtual experience to fight the living dead in Resident Evil 5 in 3D on NVIDIA’s latest gaming hardware.”
