Leave us something, for crying out loud.' Horror movies now, every single knife plunge and splatter of blood is shown. You know? They leave something to the imagination. A lot of these films are in the public domain but they're in such a horrible mess, so I have to get them remastered. You know, I find these movies in a big trash dumpster behind my house. I forced my 16-year-old daughter to watch 'em, but at first I had to tie her to a chair. I grew up with these films, and even though younger people are like, 'Oh, I don't wanna see a black-and-white film!'' when they see them, they're cracking up. They haven't been exposed to this type of junk. I think these films can have more appeal to younger people. Oh, and Werewolf of Washington! Little known films, you know, but ones you can definitely check out. Another of my all time favorites is The Wild Women of Wongo. I'm not kidding. And that, of course, is actually a really great movie.
And they're, like, from the 50s and 60s: Attack of the Killer Shrews, The Brain that Wouldn't Die, and Night of the Living Dead, which is one of my all time faves. I went out and handpicked the movies for my show because they are the ones I love. But they do appeal to some people. Like me. 'Unfortunately, all of the films I like are really crappy.
