I switched on the tv tonight to find out that SBS was changing its movie lineup and that Des Mangan will no longer be presenting the cult movie. This is a sorrowful day. Without Mangan and his wry introductions I would never have seen the zombie classic Dellamore Dellamorte or the gay-detective-story-set-in-New-York-but-filmed-in-Germany Attack of The Killer Condom. I would never have learned the true meaning of butt-kicking-kung-fu-action in Jackie Chan classics such as The Young Master. Without Des I would never have seen Ripa Hits The Skids. And this is not to mention the Godzilla films. Damnit, the man practically raised me, cinematically speaking.
Where will the youth of tommorrow go to get a solid education in worldwide cinematic trash? How will they survive?
And where the hell am I going to get my fix?

He will be sorely missed.
