Remember Monster Vision? Joe Bob Returns!

Happy Friday the 13th! Remember to follow your horror rules to stay safe on this murderous of days.

So I’ve been MIA for a little while.  From my last post, you can see that I expected to be posting a little more often, but with a new baby, plans don’t always work out. You’ll have to forgive me.

But I can’t just not post anything on Friday the 13th…especially when a momentous event is about to happen!!!

JOE BOB IS BACK!

Joe Bob Briggs was a staple of my childhood.  His Saturday night Monster Vision horror movie marathons were the highlight of my week, and I got introduced to so many cheesy fun horror movies that I normally would have skipped.   Motel Hell, anyone?

So when I heard that Joe Bob would be hosting another horror movie marathon, I was ecstatic.  Yes, Joe Bob returns for a 24-hour-ish horror marathon titled, The Last Drive-In with Joe Bob Briggs at 8  PM CST tonight only on Shudder!!!

I. Am. Thrilled.

Only 3 movies have been announced out of the approximately 13 movies that will be shown: Basket Case, Tourist Trap, and Sleepaway Camp (always a classic).  You can expect Joe Bob to bring his flavorful comments and drive-in totals just like he used to, and I can’t wait. Nostalgia is calling me.

Shudder, of course, requires a subscription, but for only $5 for the whole month, you can delight in this marathon as well as all of the horror goodies the rest of the service provides.  I highly recommend.

That’s it for me today.  I have some posts planned for the upcoming months because I think there might be an important holiday coming up. (*wink wink*)

Halloween planning is in full swing, so I hope to bring a few new monster tutorials and other fun DIYs along with my usual Halloween merchandise reviews.  See you soon!  And enjoy the marathon!
