Director Kevin Smith’s View Askew Productions takes over ArcLight’s Cinerama Dome March 28 with the very first Vulgarthon to be held on the West Coast … ever! The popular all-day event, which is held every year in Smith’s hometown of Red Bank, N.J., will feature five films followed by five Q&A sessions over a 14-hour period.

Films to be screened at Vulgarthon include: Smith’s cult classic Chasing Amy, after which a Q&A session will be taped for inclusion on the film’s upcoming 10th anniversary DVD (set to be released in 2007); Brian Lynch’s Big Helium Dog; Jeff Anderson’s Now You Know, which will also feature a Q&A taping session for its upcoming DVD release; the world premiere of Jennifer Schwalbach’s and Malcolm Ingram’s documentary, Oh What a Lovely Tea Party, about the making of Smith’s popular Jay and Silent Bob Strike Back; and, in a purely View Askew-type turn, a super-secret fifth film!

There will be filmmakers and special guests present at each film’s Q&A session. Tickets to the event, which runs all day on Monday, March 28 (10 a.m. to midnight), are $75 per person and include all screenings, Q&A sessions and a special souvenir T-shirt (which you will receive after purchasing your tickets on ViewAskew.com and must wear in order to gain entry into the event).
