SPECIAL AWARDS
MONSTER KID OF THE YEAR
MIKE SCHLESINGER
For working behind the scenes at Sony on behalf of monster fans everywhere. He directed the English dubbing of GODZILLA 2000; helped bring LOST SKELETON OF CADAVRA to theatres; convinced Sony that the Sam Katzman collection, including The Giant Claw and
The Werewolf, was worthy; and remains the monster world's favorite insider.
In every way, he is Rondo's choice for Monster Kid of 2007.
Congratulations and thank you from Monster Kids everywhere, Mike!
