Rue Morgue and Bloor Cinemaare beginning to make me very, very sad that I don’t live in Toronto. First they had George Romero there last weekend, and now they will be having Fred Dekker there on September 20th, showing his cult zombie classic  Night of the Creeps (and for all my fellow film geeks, a 35mm print!). I’ve been a huge fan of Dekker’s for many years. His career as a director was pretty short, three films and one tv episode (for Tales from the Crypt), but he gave us two cult classics - Night of the Creeps and the completely under-rated Monster Squad (so let’s all forgive him for Robocop III). Night of the Creeps is a zombie classic, with aliens (the more recent film Slither owes a lot to it), pure schlock, gore and even zombie pets. Definitely check this out in you are in the Toronto area!
