It was a trip. But the South bay was his home. Thats why you see Hermosa beach, Hawthorn, Manhattan beach, torrance in a lot of his movies.
I grew up in the South Bay(Hermosa Beach, Manhattan Beach, Redondo Beach). I used to rent videos from a place call "Video Archives" in Manhattan Beach all of the time. This tall goofy guy would try and sell me on all of these cult classics all of the time. I got exposed to movies like the Blob, Swamp-thing, etc. Was pretty cool. This guy was so passionate about movies. I got a kick out of listening to him talk about all of these movies with a passion.
This was about 89-92. Then the guy quit showing up to work at the video store. He was kinda strange but really knew his shit when it came to movies.
Then about a year later i saw him on a movie poster for a movie called "RESERVOIR DOGS". It was Quentin Tarantino, my old movie store clerk.
Now that was pretty cool.
