BAY AREA FILM EVENTS


	BAFE BLOG! MAIN PAGE BE A SPONSOR ABOUT BAFE CURRENT SHOW PAST SHOWS FUTURE SHOWS MAILING LIST	As a part of the October 23rd event AN EVENING OF CREATURE FEATURES, Bay Area Film Events encourages all audience members to come to the theater dressed as zombies to participate in Santa Cruz’s first ZOMBIE FASHION SHOW for a chance to win a variety of prizes guaranteed to raise the dead! Come dressed as your favorite ghoul and sign up at the Bay Area Film Events table to qualify for the fiendish event. Contestants will get the chance to shamble in front of the audience and will be judged on appearance, originality, scariness and of course their own, unique zombie walk! In order to keep the theater clean for subsequent armies of the living dead, please do not ooze blood, guts, intestines or other fluids... You do not need to enter the Fashion Show to come dressed for Halloween. Feel free to wear costumes and stalk our Menacing Mezzanine where you can shop for Creature Features related items, check out horrific displays and take pictures in our haunted photo area... Proceeds from this event will go to assist in the care of original CREATURE FEATURES host Bob Wilkins who, sadly, is now suffering from Alzheimer’s, a disease causing his memory to diminish and taking away his wonderful sense of humor and deadpan wit. "Don't stay up late, it's not worth it," Bob Wilkins warned as he leaned back in his yellow rocking chair, smoke wafting from his big cigar. But monster movie fans in Northern California stayed up with him every Saturday night anyway. CREATURE FEATURES was an immediate success with its grade-Z horror films and Bob's dry sense of humor. His cool, low-key deadpan helped him rise above it all. Bob once remarked, "We kicked off this show with HORROR OF PARTY BEACH and we knew we had our work cut out for us that night… and it seems it's been that way every Saturday night." Bob hosted the show from 1971 through 1979, as well as the children’s show CAPTAIN COSMIC AND 2T2”, becoming one of the best-remembered and much loved personalities of Bay Area TV history. In appreciation of Bob Wilkins, Bay Area Film Events will be donating proceeds from this show to pay for the care of Bob Wilkins and help his family get through this very difficult time.
