F*cking Aye! I’m just so happy we’re going to be able to finally bring these CREEPS home… with a special feature devoted entirely to Atkins! Not to mention the original, far superior ending! Thank you! I’m just thrilled to itty-bitty pieces. I can’t wait to get Chris, J.C., the adorable Cindy, and Tom Atkins’ genius Det. Ray Cameron up on the TV screen in my living room! October 20th couldn’t get here fast enough. “It’s Miller time!”
