Congratulations to Our Very Own Penny Dreadful!!!!!
« on: January 23, 2008, 04:11:16 AM »
  [snow_happy]

Our very own Penny Dreadful has much to be proud of!
Her TV show, Penny Dreadful's Shilling Shockers, a show that's, frankly, better than Elvira's Movie Macabre, has been nominated for a Rondo Award.

The Rondos, sponsored by the Classic Horror Film Board,
are an annual award voted on by thousands of classic horror film fans around the world.

Penny Dreadful's Shilling Shockers Season Four will be getting my vote for Best Independent Production On DVD.

And why is Penny's show better than Elvira?
In my humble opinion, it's because Elvira's in it for the bucks, but Penny's in it for the love of the genre, and it shows!!

YAY PENNY!

I should add that Penny fans can vote for her by visiting:
www.RondoAward.com

The Rondos were started by David Colton, a USA today reporter and co-founder of the Classic Horror Film Board.
They're named after Rondo Hatton, a semi-forgotten horror performer of the 1940s.

WIN PENNY WIN!!

Congratulations to Penny Dreadful AND to the fabulous Mr. Garou!  Honors well deserved indeed.

I didn't even realize that you all were already up to Season Four!  Go Team!

I'll be voting later today so long as no mad scientist walks off with my head this afternoon (it's been known to happen!).

cheers, Gothick

Hey thanks!  I'm really honored by our two nominations!  Thanks to all who voted or plan to vote in the Rondos.  If I may, I'd also like to suggest a write-in for Jonathan Frid in the "Monster Kid Hall of Fame" category.

  If you haven't yet voted in the Rondo Hatton Classic Horror Awards I  encourage you to do so this week. Voting ends on Saturday.

You can vote in as few or as many categories as you like.

 All you need do is send your votes to taraco@aol.com, and sign the email so your vote counts. You will not receive spam because of this - just a thank you note for voting.

My little spooky show  was nominated in the following categories:

* Penny Dreadful the 13th for BEST HORROR HOST (ACTIVE) OF 2007

* Penny Dreadful's Shilling Shockers Season 4 for BEST INDEPENDENT PRODUCTION

It only takes a moment to vote. The entire ballot is available at www.rondoaward.com.  If you wish to view clips of my program you can see them at www.shillingshockers.com.

Also, do consider writing in Jonathan Frid for 'Monster Kid Hall of Fame!'

Hexoxo,
Penny Dreadful
