THE best in Japanese animation will be on screen throughout the night as part of SCI-FI-LONDON's Oktoberfest this weekend.
An anime all-nighter takes place from 11.30pm on Saturday, October 8, until 8am on Sunday, October 9, at the Odeon Camden Town. Trailers for some of the films are included below.
First up is Jin-Roh: The Wolf Brigade, the acclaimed and multi-award winning classic and the last fully hand-drawn animated feature. It's the work of Mamoru Oshii and Hiroyuki Okikura, who are responsible for other massive anime titles such as Akira and Ghost in the Shell.
There's also the latest in super-real 3D CGI with the London premiere of Tekken: Blood Vengeance - a 90-minute visual storm based on one of the world's favourite video games.
Next up is Trigun: Badlands Rumble, the first Trigun movie for over 10 years. The movie has all the elements found in the original television series - comedy, suspense, action, and drama - and is hailed as an excellent return to the Trigun universe so many people love.
Also screening is Eden of the East: Paradise Lost, the second movie from the popular TV series.
Rounding off the night is Welcome to The Spaceshow. Five kids come together to spend their summer holidays at a camp but their life changes dramatically when they come across what they believe to be a small dog, badly in need of help. The creature - known as Pochi - turns out not to be a dog at all but an alien on an important mission.
Everyone attending the all-nighter will receive a bag of goodies and some freebie treats.
Oktoberfest runs from October 7 to 9 at the Odeon Camden and Cyber Market, Camden High Street. Full details on www.sci-fi-london.com
