Horrible old movies.

I was eleven when I first discovered the joys of the horrible old movie.

We had just moved to Florida, and I was very not happy about the whole situation. But one of the first Saturdays we were here, I stumbled across a creepy-looking guy on WTOG, Channel 44. His name was Dr. Paul Bearer, and he promised me a wealth of horrible old movies.

Boy, did he deliver.

The Creature Feature, as Dr. Paul's show was named, introduced me to a whole new genre, one that included such memorable classics as The Man Who Reclaimed His Head, The Mole People, and of course, the much touted Plan 9 From Outer Space.

I watched the Creature Feature religiously, and even discovered some diamonds among the dross, including the original Dracula, Invasion of the Body Snatchers, and the great William Castle's version of The House on Haunted Hill.

Dr. Paul also showed me THX-1138. The jury's still out on that one.

Thirty some-odd years later, I still watch and love horrible old movies. With that in mind, I created a new section of bunnies for those who share my passion. It will be expanded greatly in the coming months, and suggestions, as always, are welcomed.
