ACKERMANIA starring Forry Ackerman

Wow! If you grew up reading the quintessential monster mag FAMOUS MONSTERS OF FILMLAND? Then you definitely know who Forry Ackerman is! But even if you're too young or just missed the Ultimate SF Fan of All Time as editor of the most famous monster movie publication in history (sorry FANGORIA!)? ACKERMANIA is just the treat for you!

ACKERMANIA is a look at the formative years of SF, fantasy and horror filmmaking in Horror-wood. Forry Ackerman hosts in a fire-side (as in Hell!) chat and relates personal anecdotes re: all things movieland about monsters, aliens, special effects and related areas. And Forry would know -- his Ackermansion in Hollywood was once considered a "must stop" for all up and comers in the fantasy film biz.

Shot in his former Los Feliz mansion (Forry would greet each visitor outside his home with a hidden speaker in a gargoyle's mouth from which he intoned, "Who DARES invade the domain of the Ackermansion?!"), this intimate, informal and informative clip-laden overview of filmmaking is a true fan's dream.

As a fantasy film expert once said of Forry: "If Forry hadn't existed? It would have been necessary for us to invent him!" Definitely don't miss this rarity -- ACKERMANIA -- especially if you grew up on the old classics (from which he shows many segments in old trailers and snippets). Forry may be Old Ghoul School, but he's still the Headmaster of Horror!
