Bob Wilkens passed away.
 
Well, a Bay Area icon passed away. Bob Wilkins was host of "Creature Features" and also "Captain Cosmic" on KTVU Oakland throughout the 70s. He was a large part of my child hood and an avid cigar smoker. He will be missed.

I very vaguely remember Creature Features when I was a small child. RIP

He always used to have those obscure horror movies you never heard about. Many the 60's B&W classics. Creature Features was a part of my childhood as well. He always had a giant cigar and clouds of smoke around him. RIP Bob.

I'm sorry to hear of his passing too:( I used to live in San Mateo from 71 through 77 and remember Bob and "Creature Features" very well. Always burning a stogie on his show. Sure does bring back alot of memories. Thank you Steve...
