The Dallas Producers Association presents the fifth edition of IT CAME FROM DALLAS!, based on "films made in Dallas that drove drive-ins to extinction." This year's event, dubbed "Curse of It Came From Dallas – Taking the Fifth," features the comedic co-host Mark Fickert (from 4 Out of 5 Doctors), who will be holding court with the DPA's very own Gordon K. Smith, as they take us through more movie memories and trivia. Of course, the evening's program will be packed full of rarely seen, and deservedly so, pieces of film and video folly from the worlds of movies, TV spots, industrials, cable access and locally produced programming. The panoply of production prowess is guaranteed to have the audience gasping for relief.

"Curse" will also include a departure from previous shows by exhibiting examples of excellence, too – noteworthy productions made in and around Dallas, that achieved commendable recognition covering feature films, television series, music videos, documentaries and/or corporate films. Productions shown this year will be as recent as the mid-90's.

"Over the years, we've gotten a lot of laughs poking fun at some of the 'spectaculars' that have been made here. Now it's time to recognize some of the first-rate productions that have come from this area, as well," said Bob Dauber, DPA co-founder and chairperson of the It Came From Dallas event.
