Creature Double Feature

I mean, some of my earliest memories of film television are of horror movies.

Being of the age that I am, pre-cable television when I was really young, like, you know, seven, eight, we had a program called Creature Double Feature.

That played on Saturday afternoons.

So, you know, you'd have to wait a whole week.

I was so busy with my bowl of cereal that I would get on my own to not bother her so she wouldn't tell me not to watch.

And there was, it was Sundays, there was Creature Double Feature on and like Channel 38 had these old like, it was mostly like old original Japanese dubbed Godzilla movies and stuff, you know?

Like,

watch out, Godzilla will come and get

I didn't grow up in a household that anybody else besides myself watch horror.

So my exposure to horror movies was Creature Double Feature and there was a guy Captain USA on USA Network.

that would show spooky movies Saturday mornings.

And I don't ever recall seeing Albert and Costello meet Frankenstein or any of the other monsters ever featured on that.

For me, horror was in the New England area or Boston area.

We had a program on weekends called Creature Double Feature.

And every Saturday, the first movie would be like a Godzilla or Gamera or some kaiju movie.

And that's what drew me in as a kid who loved dinosaurs.
