I'd mentioned before that we were hanging with the guys in Raygun that night. My friend Tim (the same one who I wrote the dead body letter with) came by tonight for a while, and he and I were reminiscing about that night. <BR/><BR/>Wasn't Creature Features on Saturday? Remember the little intro thing they did-- the rhyming thing? One of the WGN newscasters did that. Marty somthing. My favorite was when they'd play the Wolfman movies.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-27540291.post-1164998530603109442006-12-01T13:42:00.000-05:002006-12-01T13:42:00.000-05:00Dale I'm going to have to look for that Night Stal...Dale I'm going to have to look for that Night Stalker series on DVD.

The guitarist was wearing a Motorhead t-shirt...for pants. Big Black and Scratch Acid also played. And I do own a Killdozer record, Little Baby Bunting. Their rendition of Neil Diamond's "I am I said" is priceless.<BR/><BR/>I'll check on the coital status of the Bubble Boy.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-27540291.post-1164944787831941622006-11-30T22:46:00.000-05:002006-11-30T22:46:00.000-05:00I'm going to have to inspectigate the Crowhaven Fa...I'm going to have to inspectigate the Crowhaven Farm a little more closely Bubs. I think it may be the film I've been scratching my head over for years trying to remember on a cursory look at the imdb information.<BR/><BR/>I have the Night Stalker series too although I haven't spent enough time with it yet and CP makes perfect sense bringing up Lizzie Borden.

I can tell you that movie made quite an...impression...on me as a 13 year old. I remember seeing a punk band at Exit, years ago, called Man Sized Action and they did a song titled "I'm in love with Elizabeth Montgomery." I'm glad to see that there's a petition drive to get it on DVD, and I happily throw the full resources of the compound behind this effort.<BR/><BR/>Johnny, ah yes. BITB. I can't remember, did Travolta get laid in that?<BR/><BR/>Lulu and Johnny, I have a vague memory of seeing Killdozer with some friends, maybe at the Cubby Bear? They were one of those bands I liked, whose records I never owned.Joehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09747874295331152779noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-27540291.post-1164905155111047592006-11-30T11:45:00.000-05:002006-11-30T11:45:00.000-05:00Killdozer the band does rock, as does my friend's ...Killdozer the band does rock, as does my friend's brother-in-law's band who occasionally go by the name Killdozer.luluhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06468418041443316689noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-27540291.post-1164898275891850502006-11-30T09:51:00.000-05:002006-11-30T09:51:00.000-05:00Let's not forget the John Travolta's forgettable m...Let's not forget the John Travolta's forgettable movie "The Boy in the Plastic Bubble." That one is available on dvd-- my wife found it for 99 cents. <BR/><BR/>I own not only the two Nightstalker movies, but the whole series, which came out on dvd earlier this year. And I cannot wait for Killdozer to come out on dvd. Clint Walker was never more stoic. <BR/><BR/>BTW, the band Killdozer, which took it's name from that movie, is great.<BR/><BR/>And I own Gargoyles, too. I've got a real soft spot for really bad television.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-27540291.post-1164895356619029462006-11-30T09:02:00.000-05:002006-11-30T09:02:00.000-05:00Nice list Bubs, though there is one glaring omissi...Nice list Bubs, though there is one glaring omission: let us not forget Elizabeth Montgomery's stunning performance in <A HREF="http://www.petitiononline.com/bevygar/petition.html" REL="nofollow">The Legend of Lizzie Borden</A>. <BR/><BR/>I'm sure many a teenage boy from the era will not soon forget the image of Samantha Stevens, in the nude, hacking away at her parents with an ax.
