As Nat Brehmer recently explained in an article here on BD, 1982’s Friday the 13th Part III helped pioneer the return of 3D on the big screen, as it was the widest release *ever* for a 3D movie at the time and it ushered in a wave of franchise horror films that took their terror to a whole new dimension. Sadly, it’s quite rare the film is actually exhibited in its proper 3D format these days, meaning many horror fans have never actually experienced Part III in 3D.
But if you’re up for traveling to Portland this summer, you can cross that off your bucket list!
Brought to our attention by our friends over at Fridaythe13thFranchise.com, the Academy Theatre in Portland, Oregon will be playing Friday the 13th Part III in Classic Anaglyph 3D from July 26-August 1, with two screenings reportedly taking place each day.
Tickets will be going up for grabs soon, so be sure to bookmark the Academy Theatre’s website and check back periodically. They’re also playing Creature from the Black Lagoon in 3D!
