So I was watching Angel (1984) today and noticed in several scenes two marquees advertising for Return of the Jedi (1983) and Blue Thunder (1983).
Batman Returns (1992) can be seen on a marquee in The Double 0 Kid (1992).

Did you spot any recently?

When the BLOB (1958) attacks the movie theater-they're playing DAUGHTER OF HORROR ( 1955 ,aka DEMENTIA)...and oddly enough-Bela Lugosi? Couldnt be for a personal live apperance,which Bela did many until his death-because in 1958-he was dead. Hmmm...



Here's the trailer fot DAUGHTER OF HORROR...

     In ATTACK OF THE PUPPET PEOPLE (1958, AIP) the drive-in marquee and the screen are showing THE AMAZING COLOSSAL MAN (1957, AIP).

If it's true what they say, that GOD created us in His image, then why should we not love creating, and why should we not continue to do so, as carefully and ethically as we can, on whatever scale we're capable of?

     The choice is simple; refuse to create, and refuse to grow, or build, with care and love.

In 1983's boys in prison film "Bad Boys" you can see not only Halloween 2 on the marquee board but also get a brief glimpse of Jamie Lee Curtis in a wig. The reason being that director Rick Rosenthal got his directing start with Halloween 2 and was paying homage to his debut.

    Earth is visited by a GIANT ANTIMATTER SPACE BUZZARD! Gawk at the amazingly bad bird puppet, or chuckle over the silly dialog. This is one of the greatest b-movies ever made.

    Lesson Learned:
    • Osmosis: os·mo·sis (oz-mo'sis, os-) n., 1. When a bird eats something.
