In the spirit movies I’ve returned from the
underground archive to dabble in my cinematic ways. In years past, I’ve
been regarded as a filmgoer who seems to wander into just about
anything. From the experimental, b-movies, shock cinema, and lost
classics amongst numerous genres that I find obscure or considered an
oddity. There is no denying my appetite varies when it comes down to
entertainment or what seems to be of interest. In this edition of Coming
Soon I venture into the world of documentaries, lost film reels, and the
return of Fright Night Theater. Honestly folks, it feels wonderful to be
back in front of the silver screen once again. So, sit back, relax, and
get yourself large popcorn and a soda as we go on another cinematic
journey.
