Well, fiends, all good things must come to an end, and this weekend brings us to the finalies of the abbreviated first seasons of Midnight Shock Theater and Master Vyle's Creature Feature. Despite all the reasons for not meeting my goal of bringing you two new shows every week for a year it has been fun, and these final shows that were originally meant to air on Cinco de Mayo weekend are no exception. I will be makinging a second attempt at Project 52 in a couple of years, hopefully having enough time to be way ahead of schedule. Until then, please enjoy this weekend's Horrible Old Featured Creatures.
