    Creature Show a Huge Success!

    Rising up from the depths of the Castro Theatre, THE CREATURE FROM THE BLACK LAGOON, REVENGE OF THE CREATURE and THE CREATURE WALKS AMONG US were a huge hit. Fans came from all over to watch the Gill-man swim right out of the screen and into their laps in 3D.

    Special guests "The Creature" Ben Chapman and actress Julie Adams were a pleasure to work with and had a lot of fun meeting and talking with fans and signing more than their fair share of autographs! On stage, they held the audience enraptured by stories of the Creature and their parts in Creature history. Interviewed by CREATURE FEATURES host John Stanley, they lead everyone through their adventures in the Black Lagoon…

    A big attraction at the show was Eric Yee’s swamp creature costume, which wandered up and down Castro Street, peering in storefront windows and restaurant doorways and pulling everyone’s attention to the Castro Theatre. Inside he greeted fans, took pictures with them and rambled through the lobby, mezzanine and theater.

    Up on the mezzanine, Ben and Julie sold Creature photos, lobby cards and more. The CREATURE FEATURES table provided everyone with all the Bob Wilkins and John Stanley merchandise they could want and the BAFE table sold the exclusive Creature poster painted by Hugo Award-winning artist Bob Eggleton. There are still a limited number of posters left, so keep an eye on the site for announcements on how you can get one for yourself!

    The theater was packed with people on Saturday night and the dual-projector system gave the audience a pristine 3D experience as fish, harpoons, Creature claws and more floated their way out of the screen and over the crowd.

    Bay Area Film Events would like to thank everyone who showed up and hopes to see everyone back for the next show….stay tuned to www.bayareafilmevents.com for upcoming announcements about what's coming next!!
