About the February 21 event:

IT CAME FROM DALLAS, the Dallas film extravaganza with more sequels than ROCKY, will be presented on Thursday, February 21 at the Studio Movie Grill on Central and Royal in Dallas. The Dallas Producers Association and Replicopy present “IT CAME FROM DALLAS 8 – Behind the 8-Ball.”



“IT CAME FROM DALLAS 8 – Behind the 8-Ball” is the Dallas Producers Association’s 8th annual celebration of filmmaking and filmmakers in North Texas… from the ridiculous to the sublime.



IT CAME FROM DALLAS was created to not only honors the trailblazers of the Dallas film industry, but also to serve as an annual Dallas Producers Association fundraiser that benefits the Texas Motion Picture Alliance. TXMPA, founded by the DPA, has been vital in supporting the Texas Moving Image Industry Incentive Program and is responsible for bringing film and television production jobs to Texas. The incentives program benefits in-state producers as well.



The event kicked off in 2005 with a look back at Dallas’ glorious B-movie past including hysterical clips and trailers from films such as THE GIANT GILA MONSTER, ROCK BABY ROCK IT, THE KILLER SHREWS and DON'T LOOK IN THE BASEMENT just to name an illustrious few. Shows in subsequent years have included clips from commercials and documentaries produced in Dallas and put the spotlight on many of the more prestigious motion pictures filmed in North Texas.



For the 2013 version of IT CAME FROM DALLAS, the DPA has reached out to the community – the local production industry as well as local celebrities – to introduce film clips with a Dallas/North Texas connection. In addition, the show will also feature films that were produced in other parts of the state. Texas filmmaking professionals will share behind the scenes anecdotes as lead-ins to clips from films they worked on along with celebrities with Texas roots introducing films made in our state that have left a lasting impression.
