Troma is still making their rounds in the convention and festival circuit and have now announced that they will be attending Dragon*Con.  I received the following press release below:

After the exciting “Return to Nuke ‘Em High: Vol. 1 Premiere” at the Twin Tiers Comic Con and Monster Mania weekend, Troma Entertainment President and Legendary Director Lloyd Kaufman has been invited to Atlanta as a Special Guest at the 2014 Dragon Con in celebration of Troma’s 40th Anniversary! 

On Friday August 29th Dragon Con presents the “Troma: 40th Toxic Anniversary” panel at the 2:30pm at the Marriott Marquis’s International South Ballroom to honor maverick filmmaker Lloyd Kaufman. Moderated by Fox’s Chace Ambrose with special guests abound, join the Troma Team in celebrating 40 years of Reel Independence!

Friday Evening after the close of Dragon Con bring a blanket and stay up late with us in a throwback to the days of USA’s “Up All Night” with the Troma Film Festival beginning at 11:30pm in the Hyatt’s Hanover C-E ballroom. Featuring “Tromeo & Juliet” written by “Guardians of the Galaxy” director and Troma alum James Gunn, the film that started it all the “Toxic Avenger,” and Lloyd Kaufman’s sistine chapel film “Return to Nuke ‘Em High: Vol. 1” – Let’s watch! 

And make sure to visit the Troma Booth (Booth #118 on the 2nd Floor) where you can meet Lloyd Kaufman all weekend for FREE Photo Opportunities and Autograph signings on all of your favorite Troma-bilia including a number of Exclusives you can only find at DragonCon!

Join Lloyd, Toxie, the Tromettes, and the rest of the Troma Team August 29th-September 1st as we celebrate 40 years for a Fan-toxic four days in Atlanta, Georgia at Dragon Con!

Dragon Con is located at the Hyatt Regency Atlanta, 265 Peachtree St. NE, Atlanta GA 30303 

Those of you that can make it out should definately do so. If you can be sure to tell Uncle Lloyd that Horror Society says hi!
