This Movie Is So Bad, It Was Delivered To Channel 2 In A Brown Paper Bag......



The above title was said by Bob Wilkins on "Creature Features" on KTVU Channel 2 referring to the movie "Monster From The Ocean Floor" (1954). Though Bob has always said his movies he showed on Channel 2 (or Channel 3 or Channel 40) were really bad, After looking at the entire movie schedule during Bob's run at Channel 2, only a quarter of the movies he showed, were bad, most were very good if not classics. However his share of turkeys that he has shown includes, "Curse Of Bigfoot"(1976), "Trog"(1970), "Teenagers From Outer Space"(1959), "Two Faces Of Dr. Jekyll"(1961), "The Snow Creature"(1954), "The Creeping Terror"(1964)[The Movie That Caused Bob Shaw's House Plants To Die] as well as that Golden Turkey of a Ed Wood Film "Plan Nine From Outer Space(1956). But of course I don't want to forget the movie that started it all for Bob Wilkins, "Attack Of The Mushroom People"(1964). Boy, Were those Turkey's, but then most of his other movies were Classics...............
