Okay - this is probably not an original idea... but I was reading the Movies thread and had a bit of a brain storm...

While I broke ground on Frankensteins head today - and am going to continue with my planned theme... I already think I have next years...

a Drive In of the Dead...

1 - Bluckies
2 - A projector (I can borrow one with the promise to pay for it if it breaks - I'm talking about a tv projector - not an 8mm)
3 - scary movie highlight DVD

Project it onto a large white garage door (mine) with all the trimmings and trapping of the old drive in theater (ticket booth of the damned, fake neon, fake speakers, skip the cars - folks will get the idea, etc, skeltons making out - the whole nine yards - could be a lot of fun)

Anyway - had the idea and didn't want to lose it. Maybe someone would take it and run with it.

Edwood,
Do some of the kids in the nieghborhood have those motorized mini cars/trucks.Maybe they will let you borrow them. Have 2 or 3 of those in front of the screen would be perfect.

Maybe I could drive in and get a chilly dog, fries, and a malted for 25 cents.

Yes to all these - this could be a lot of fun. Since I am planning on doing it next year (this year is already settled on!) - I have time to plan!

I like the idea of selling food - but would probably twist that into the treat giveaway - great idea DT. Popcorn balls with gummy worms in them and the like...

The 50's theme is kicker - Atomic Age Zombie!. To me - it would just be a hoot to see the movie reel highlights.

Bluckies in poodle skirts - or is that infringing on "Thriller?"
