"Cinema Insomnia is more than just the last true late night horror movie showcase. Many of us grew up watching Zacharley, Ghoulardi, Bob Wilkins, Elvira, Mystery Science Theatre and other wonderfully unique programs back in the days before DVD, VCR - and yes, even Cable TV. Late night programs like these were the only outlet for viewing classic 'B' films, monster films, sci-fi and horror classics. Cinema Insomnia recaptures the nostalgia of those times perfectly, but in its own brand new and highly entertaining package. Cinema Insomnia is hosted by the multi-talented Mr. Lobo who adds comedic pieces before, during and after the features to add perspective and prove his motto, 'They're not bad movies - just misunderstood.' Thrown into the mix is an eclectic stream-of-conciousness archive of rare films, retro commercials, monster movie trailers, and cutting-edge indies. The editing and the writing are extremely clever, making Cinema Insomnia a gem in a world of copy-cat reality driven programs that now dominate the present-day TV wasteland. Mr. Lobo may be a throwback to another era of television, but he is attracting the eyeballs of young and old in broadcast markets across the country on over 100 cable systems. Not only is Mr. Lobo is the perfect 'Horror Host,' hands down - but possibly also the future late-night king... period."

"CINEMA INSOMNIA... has created positive viewer response, brought up ratings, and attracted advertisers in every market it's been aired. Ask any station manager and they too will recommend CINEMA INSOMNIA to anyone looking for good off-prime programming."
Terri Egloff, Program Manager, KEJB-TV UPN 43
The future is now and later.
The fourth season of Cinema Insomnia will begin on October 29, and it's already shaping up to be another whiz-bang ride of new films (as new as old films can get, at any rate), interviews and some of the craziest stuff that's ever been seen in syndication and on DVD. Also to come are highlights from the Trash Film Orgy, WonderCon weirdness and of course, more of Mister Lobo simply being Mister Lobo.
(See this press release or the Cult Films section of this website for more information about Season 3 movies.)
A friendly explanation of the Cinema Insomnia ratings system
-- This superior film will lose interest in YOU, take your TV and leave.
-- It's good or bad enough to stay up to the very bitter end.
-- You'll fall alseep halfway through.
-- you'll lose interest 10 minutes in.
NO EYES -- You'd sooner gouge out your own eyes and don a hair shirt than watch.
