Cinema Insomnia
''Cinema Insomnia'' is a nationally syndicated American television series presented by horror host Mr. Lobo. Format Typically, Mr. Lobo opens each episode by promising to screen a well-known horror or science fiction classic (such as ''Creature from the Black Lagoon'' or ''Alien''); however budgetary limitations, acts of God or other circumstances invariably force him to show a much lower quality movie (such as ''Starcrash'' or ''Santa Claus Conquers The Martians''). Unlike the various hosts and robots of ''Mystery Science Theater 3000'', Mr. Lobo does not appear while the movie is playing; instead he appears in brief vignettes in between segments of the movie.

Characters Mr. Lobo always appears on screen with a "70's pr ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
