Dolores Hart, Martin Landau and other stars this weekend at expo in New Jersey

This weekend is the annual Chiller Expo (Toy, Model, and Film Expo) in Parsippany, New Jersey. I've never been to it, but this year there is a very exciting lineup of celebrity guests - a great opportunity for autographs. Scheduled to appear  are Martin Landau and Mother Dolores Hart, who is now a nun but fifty years ago was a huge star with appearances in Elvis films, Where the Boys Are, Lonelyhearts, Come Fly With Me, and more. This is her first autograph session in almost 50 years, so this is a very, very rare treat indeed.

Here is just a partial list of celebrities:


Martin Landau, legendary actor
Dolores Hart, Where the Boys Are
Burt Young, Rocky series
Louise Fletcher, "Nurse Ratched" in One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest
Pam Grier, Jackie Brown, Foxy Brown
Louis Gossett Jr., An Office and a Gentlemen
Valerie Perrine, Lenny, Superman
Bruce Dern, Coming Home, Family Plot
Elvira, Mistress of the Dark
Sara Karloff, daughter of Boris Karloff
Lana Wood, sister of Natalie Wood
All of the child actors from Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory
(Peter Ostrum, etc)


If I go, I will be sure to have an update
