Stephen King
Stephen King wrote a book called Nightmares in the Sky, and it was about gargoyles as they are featured on many buildings, with photographs by f-stop Fitzgerald.
He talks about how he and his son would stay up late to watch this on the late show, and would watch it every single time it was on.
For any fan of the movie, reading the King story will make you smile because how he relates his goofy love of this film ...it's universal. Well, for those of us who dig it, anyway.
