Did Anyone Even Know? - TheMagnificentVoid - 01-15-2009
Bob Wilkins, of CREATURE FEATURES fame, died last Wednesday (Jan 7th) at age 76 of advanced Alzheimer's Disease. A lot of you here might be too young to have seen his show or lived in a state where his show was not syndicated but he was one of the Godfathers of late night horror movie shows and he started his show back in 1971. Even Bill Cosby caught his show late one Saturday night in his hotel room when he was in Lake Tahoe, CA for a performance and wrote to Bob thanking him for having such a great show.<img src=\"http://i44.tinypic.com/rw5hud.jpg\" border=\"0\" class=\"linked-image\" />His passing is sad and truly the end of an era. He was the first influence I had (like so many others) to loving horror movies.Rest in peace, Bob.You've earned it.
