Sammy's Pleasant Nightmares!

Everybody loves SAMMY TERRY. Well, everybody that knows him.

If you're a longtime reader of this blog, then you probably remember that I wrote about SAMMY not quite a year ago. [Here's the link if you want to catch up.] SAMMY hosted "Nightmare Theater" on Friday nights at 11:00PM. SAMMY would rise from a coffin, introduce himself and after a brief monologue about many things [including the movie we were about to see, would invite us to watch - if we dared!

So there we'd be, huddled in the dark, with our popcorn waiting for the monster of the week to appear and scare us! SAMMY would return before the movie after commercial breaks with more of his dry humor... and then again, at the end of the movie, SAMMY would make his final appearance. Before returning to his coffin, he would always wish us "Pleasant nightmares!" followed by his manical laugh.

What's really cool is that Jerrald Hawkins has created a fan site and movie club dedicated to SAMMY TERRY. Jerrald has remastered old tapes of SAMMY presenting movies. On the last Friday of each month, club members start their tapes at 11PM. Not only are members watching the movies "together" but at the same time theyre also able to participate in a live chat via Jerrald's site!

What could make this even better? Well, the tapes are professionally produced. They come in plastic cases with labels giving details of the movie, pictures of SAMMY and his logo... plus Jerrald sends them to members for the cost of the mailing! He makes no profit.

If this sounds like something you'd like then check out Jerrald's site! Even if you've never heard of SAMMY TERRY, you're gonna love him because...

... Everybody loves SAMMY TERRY! ["Until next time... Pleasant Nightmares!]
