We are thrilled to report that the April 12th premiere screening of
BEAST WISHES was a hit with the audience. The response was overwhelming. Before the film we showed several short subjects. First, a new trailer for
DARK AND STORMY NIGHT, which was produced by
Trish Geiger and featured
Bob Burns' final appearance as a gorilla in a feature film. Next up was Frank Ippolito's
DRACULA'S DAUGHTERS VERSUS THE SPACE BRAINS, starring
Neil Patrick Harris. After that was
Greg Nicotero's incredible short film
UNITED MONSTER TALENT AGENCY, which features cameos by our friends
Bob and Kathy,
David J. Schow,
Frank Darabont,
Dana Gould and
Sam Witwer, Then came the feature presentation, which was so well received we couldn't have been happier. A Q&A panel followed, hosted by actor/comedian Dana Gould. Answering questions about the making of the film and the legacy of Bob and Kathy were Trish and Frank,
Pat McClung,
John Goodwin,
Steve Wang, Frank Ippolito and composer
Christopher Drake. It really was a grand evening, and big thanks go to
Taylor White of
Creature Features for sponsoring the event.
