I was deeply saddened to hear of the passing of Mr. Bob Shaw on Friday, April 10 2009. For those of you who are not familiar with him, he was I had the pleasure of meeting him a few months ago at the first screening of "Watch Horror Films; Keep America Strong" at the Grand Lake Theater in Oakland. Mr. Shaw had worked with Bob Wilkins on Creature Features and was the guy responsible for editing together the iconic Creature Features opening:
At the event I had the opportunity to tell him that this opening scared the hell out of me as a small child on more then one late Saturday night.
Mr. Shaw passed away quite young. Here are some highlights from his stay on this earth:
Robin Williams
Shirley MacLaine
Sandra Bullock
Billy Crystal
Farewell Mr. Shaw, and thank you for the memories.
