My Rating:
Run time: 91 min. | USA
Regional Premiere American Scary is a look at the nation's tradition of horror hosting, from Zacherley to A. Ghastlee Ghoul. With interviews from major hosts from the 1950s to the present day, along with memories from celebrities and fans who were influenced by these hosts, you'll follow this American folk art form from its glamorous beginnings, through repeated waves of popularity, to its scrappy resurgence and survival in the age of cable access and the Internet. American Scary looks to remind people how much fun local TV could be - and maybe could be again. Featuring Joe Bob Briggs, Tim Conway, Neil Gaiman, Tom Savini and more! With horror host and Austinite Professor Anton Griffin and Frank Della Stritto from Cult Movies Press in attendance!

Great material and good access to subjects, but it's really just a bunch of talking heads and there's not much of a story.
