MY FAMOUS MONSTERS 54

A terrific Basil Gogos painting of the Hideous Sun Demon graces the cover of FAMOUS MONSTERS #106. Features in this issue include THE GOLDEN VOYAGE OF SINBAD, TALES THAT WITNESS MADNESS and TV's DRACULA starring Jack Palance (one of my all-time favorite actors in an outstanding performance).

I've got an original lobby card from HIDEOUS SUN DEMON framed and hanging on the wall of the man cave. A double bill of HIDEOUS SUN DEMON and INCREDIBLE PETRIFIED WORLD, both starring Robert Clarke, was the opening night feature of the Drive-In Double Feature film festival that I was a part of back in the summer of 1994. Remind me to tell you the full story of that illustrious endeavor one of these days. It involves the aforementioned Robert Clarke and the one and only Forrest J. Ackerman. Stay tuned!
