The Beast Within was an Independent Horror movie that premiered at The Vogue in 1982 while I worked there. Pictured are Martha, the cashier and James Amodio, Asst. Mgr.
Ronny Cox (who is in the movie) sang the song “The Beast Within” on a single that was released and I had a copy of it at one time. I think they gave it out at the Premiere
Hey Will,
it’s cool that someone is interested in seeing those pics. First I have to locate them, then scan them, and I’ll do that and post, soon as i get some time. They’re not pro shots, though, just mostly goofing around shots I believe….. it’s been awhile since I’ve seen ‘em…
I worked as asst. manager at the vogue for a for little while , around 1982-‘84. Have a lot of great memories, and some pictures of the interior and a couple of the outside. The manager at the time, George Michaelides often had us put up cheasy displays, and I took pics of 'em. And he took pics of us with them. We had plenty of celebrities coming in. Jeff Conaway and John Larroquette were regulars. I walked Andy Kaufman to his car after a screening of Mad Max, talking about the film. He thought it was too violent. Also when Dodger announcer Vin Scully got his Star on the Blvd., I escorted him and his family and entourage from the rear entrance to the the waiting press. Also got to know Nicolas Cage from seeing him sloop by the theatre with Crispin Glover and I’d let them come in. This is before they were household names. Ok, I could go on for awhile, all the experiences there. I won’t. But I will mention some of the celebrities I saw there: William Shatner, Vincent Price, Wolfman Jack, Jack LaLane, Gary Owens, Mayor Tom Bradley, David Lander (Squiggy, of Lenny & Squiggy), the Spinal Tap keyboardist, Joseph Cotton, The Skipper from Gilligan’s Island, Aldo Ray…. Okay, that’s not so many, and that’s all I can think of now.
I’ll be sad to see it go….if it does…
