Happy Father’s Day!

I have my father to thank for a love of horror movies. We were the first house in the neighborhood to have a vcr (Betamax or otherwise) and I was fortunate to have parents who not only brought home all the great movies we remember so well… the FRIDAY THE 13TH series, HALLOWEEN, Larry Cohen’s movies, I SPIT ON YOUR GRAVE!, MY BLOODY VALENTINE, PHANTASM and on and on and on… but who also watched these films, loved them, and seemed to have no real concern over letting my siblings and I watch them over and over and over again.

In honor of Father’s Day, my assembled family just watched the opening chapter of Stephen King and George Romero’s CREEPSHOW together.

God, I loved this stuff when I was a kid. Over and over, I wore that VHS tape down…
