Cause for celebration: Night of the Creeps finally releases on legitimate (many of you, myself included, have owned crappy bootleg copies procured at conventions) DVD and BluRay tomorrow, 10/27/09!!!
Fans of true cult cinema have a reason to rejoice this Halloween season, as Fred Dekker, the mastermind behind the hugely popular The Monster Squad, is finally bringing his elusive, long absent underground horror hit Night of the Creeps to DVD and Blu-ray on October 27th. To help celebrate the release, we recently caught up with the prolific director for a no holds barred interview that covers his whole career (including his own ruminations about the much maligned RoboCop 3 some fifteen years after its release). It’s a great interview that you can read below in our DVD section. While discussing Night of the Creeps, Dekker spoke more about his plans for a sequel which would reunite the entire cast some twenty years after the events of that faithful night in 1986. He also discussed the upcoming Rob Cohen remake of his beloved The Monster Squad, and the project he is currently working on, which is a feature length adaptation of the Bill Rose documentary The Loss of Nameless Things.
