You Won’t Forget Me

The question is: do you believe in evil?

  That’s not how the conversation started. In fact, it started differently.

  I never understood how an actor like Peter Cushing got into horror films.

  That was Annie, a British transport to America. Beautiful, dark shoulder-length hair, with sharp facial features and soft wide eyes. She was effortlessly sexy, the way she tossed her hair, and leaned forward in her seat holding her cocktail and exposing her cleavage, the way she smiled oh, so devilishly. Her sultry voice and clipped English accent.

  Cushing was great actor. He could do anything, said Mike. He was seated two chairs away. A burly, bearded bear of a guy. He owned a comic book and gaming shop lodged between the Castro and the South of Market.

  That’s the point, Annie said, leaning to her right over redheaded Andy to speak to Mike. He was a dignified actor.

  So was Vincent Price, Mike said, smiling. He sucked in his gut a little now that Annie was looking directly at him. His face reddened a bit, embarrassed to be chugging at his third beer. New Year’s Eve champagne and cocktails
