By Ron "The Rental King" Avis on Monday, October 4, 2021

Welcome to the official 2021 Cinemaster SPOOKTAKULAR! In our first installment at our long anticipated salute to scary movies. It’s officially Halloween season so we’re heading to outer space where no one can hear you scream! Join Ron and Adam as they discuss the fate of the Nostromo when it takes a detour to investigate a potential distress signal. Amidst the blinking lights and space sounds we get our very first look at the dreaded Xenomorph in this Ridley Scott epic. From Facehuggers to flamethrowers, our Cinemasters break down this classic Hitchcockian horror from above and share their personal insights and experiences as they pertain to this film and the franchise at large. So make sure you lock all the doors and windows, turn on all the lights and tune in to this year’s opening episode of CINEMASTERS OF THE UNIVERSE SPOOKTAKULAR!!!

I am your host to the left. In the ancient days when the stirring of the great volcano foretold the coming of the Cinemasters, I prepared the way by imbibing the forgotten lore of all things Cine-magical, hence I am the one who drinks. It is through my liquid merriment that I bind my talents to the other half of our intrepid duo to expertly craft the audio and visual wonderment beholden to the masses via the internets of old. By the secret wisdom handed to me through fluid consumption, our awesomeness is perfected like an electrical shock wave out of the tip of a unicorn horn directly into the aortic valve of your heart where the secrets of the universe are hidden. I am romantically entangled with a wondrous lady whom I call my wife. She has bore me the progeny of a son and a daughter and it is by this offspring that it is possible for me to be a Rad Dad. Everything seen and heard from the Cinemasters is by my hand.
