I met him!!!
I was living in Las Vegas in November of 2006 and I went to get a haircut at a barbershop on Charleston Avenue - at least, I think it was on Charleston Ave. After that, I walked next door to a video store. I kept thinking the elderly man at the counter looked familiar and he and I got to talking about cult movies. He asked me if I was familair with "Incredibly Strange Creatures..." and I told him yes, I had seen it but would like to see it again. I then realized who he was. He was pleased that I knew his name without having to be told. (I started to ask if he was Cash Flagg, but remembered it was a stage name). When I said, "Are you by chance Ray Dennis Steckler?" his face lit up and he told me he was. We talked for almost an hour about low-budget cult films. He signed my VHS cope of "Incedibly Strange Creatures..." and he could not have been nicer. We talked about Las Vegas films, Ed Wood, video stores and movies in general. Just a nice man. I hated to hear he passed away. Mr. Steckler, RIP. From your fan and friend, John
