John Stanley, long-time TV host of “Creature Features” in the Bay Area has released another book, “I Was a TV Horror Host.” If you are familiar with Mr. Stanley’s various editions of his “Creature Features” movie review books, then you already know know that he tackles his subject with talent, love and humor.
With the holidays fast approaching, this reasonably-priced book ($20 + $4 P/H) might make a terrific gift or stocking stuffer. Go to Stanley Books for more information and also to check out photos and comments by Ray Bradbury, Gene Roddenberry, Christopher Lee, Ray Harryhausen and many more. Mention you learned about this on Cinema Treasures and ask if he’d autograph your copy.

Well worth reading!
Even though I’m a Bay Area resident and a big fan of John Stanley I’m not quite sure what a book about a TV horror movie host has to do with classic movie theaters…unless it’s that the movies he showed on TV once played in movie theaters.
