GalaxyCon St. Louis: Bruce Campbell vs. CatBusRuss & 'Demons 2'
CatBusRuss went into GalaxyCon St. Louis a little bit on edge. He had the "Ninety For Chill: The Panel" and the third edition of the "1985 Action Movie Triple Threat" to prepare for with a virtual stranger who was crashing at his hotel room in Nix Eclips. Unlike GalaxyCon Des Moines, this podcast host did not have a day to relax, especially when he wanted that groovy autograph from Bruce Campbell. Good thing the man who was Ash Williams was there to verbally slap him in the face to get his head on straight.
“I Dig Crazy Flicks” was founded as “Ninety For Chill”. It is Russ Stevens’s blog dedicated to movies with runtimes between 70 to 100 minutes. This runtime was the standard for horror movies and goofball comedies. Without the time for drawn out narratives, throwing everything at the wall and seeing what would stick was the rule. Thus, craziness ensues, and cinephiles like CatBusRuss want to preach the greatness of embracing the insanity.
