It creeps, it leaps (and all that)

It's four days and counting until one of the most fun events in these parts, the annual Blobfest at the Colonial Theater in Phoenixville, where a famous scene from that 1957 cult classic was filmed. This year's events will include another Friday night reenactment of the "run-out" from the Colonial (already sold out), a street fair Saturday morning, and twin bills with the original "Invaders From Mars" (Saturday afternoon) and "It Conquered the World" (Sunday).
