<span class="SFPTagline"> From SCIFIPEDIA </span>

Bob Wilkins (b. April 11, 1932) was the horror host of Creature Features in the San Francisco Bay area. While the show certainly ran its share of unlikely Oscar contenders (the debut feature in 1971 was The Horror of Party Beach), Wilkins was successful in getting big names to sit for the interview segment.

Unlike wild or outlandish hosts like Ghoulardi or Elvira, Wilkins was a soft-spoken man in a business suit, tie, and glasses.

Wilkins also appeared as the costumed Captain Cosmic, where he presented mostly Japanese shows, such as Spectreman and Ultraman.

A low-budget monster movie called The Milipitas Monster gave Wilkins the opportunity to make a cameo appearance.

For sci-fi fans in the Bay area, Wilkins was an important part of their fannish lives.
