MONSTER PARTY INVADES THE V.I.P. SECTION!
A beloved past guest returns to help us rub virtual elbows with some of showbiz’s best and brightest! Lay down the red carpet and brace yourselves as MONSTER PARTY presents… JOHN STANLEY’S CELEBRITY ONSLAUGHT!!!
JAMES GONIS, SHAWN SHERIDAN, LARRY STROTHE, and MATT WEINHOLD, have not made a secret of their love for JOHN STANLEY! From 1979 to 1984, John was the host of the San Francisco Bay Area TV series, CREATURE FEATURES, taking over from legendary first host, BOB WILKINS. Since that time, he has gone on to author many books, including several editions of THE CREATURE FEATURES MOVIE GUIDE, THE GANG THAT SHOT UP HOLLYWOOD, THE NOVELS “WORLD WAR III (AKA NAPALM SUNDAY)” AND “BOGART 48,” THE AUTOBIOGRAPHICAL “I WAS A TV HORROR HOST,” and the recent follow-up to that classic tome, “THE CAREER THAT DRIPPED WITH HORROR.” When it comes to films, John directed the love letter to the horror genre, “NIGHTMARE IN BLOOD,” as well as producing many other movies, documentaries, music videos, and shorts.
During his time as the host of CREATURE FEATURES and his 33-year stint as an entertainment writer for the SAN FRANCISCO CHRONICLE, John Stanley had the dream job of interviewing countless (unless you count them) actors, filmmakers, writers, and other celebrities. We’re talkin’ folks like THE CAST OF STAR WARS, IRWIN ALLEN, RIDLEY SCOTT, LEONARD NIMOY, HARLAN ELLISON, FRANK GORSHIN, ADAM WEST, STEPHEN KING, JAMES STEWART, CHUCK NORRIS, MAX VON SYDOW, RAY HARRYHAUSEN, NICHOLAS MEYER, ROBERT BLOCH, ROGER CORMAN, CLINT EASTWOOD, CHRISTOPHER LEE, RAY BRADBURY, RODDY MCDOWALL, CHRISTOPHER REEEVE, BRUCE LEE, and MANY more! And needless to say (but hell, we’re gonna say it), John has a treasure trove of up-close and personal anecdotes to share.
