Svengoolie

This just in from Berwyn ! BERWYN ! ? ! ? Tonight on Svengoolie - “ Kolchak : The Night Stalker “. This was a made for TV movie that led to the series of the same name starring Darren McGavin of “ A Christmas Story “ as newspaper reporter Carl Kolchak . Investigating strange stories is his specialty and his investigations always veer off into the supernatural , the unexplained and the mysterious . This is as good as it gets !

Tonight on Svengoolie , “ The Crawling Eye “ from 1958 . Known to European audiences as “ The Trollenburg Terror “ . This movie has some very realistic mountaineering scenes and the special effects are pretty good for its time . The main character is played by Forrest Tucker , better known as Sergeant O’Rourke from the classic TV series “ F - Troop “ . HOLD ON TO YOUR HATS !

Comedy of Terrors should be a great watch with all the well know actors in it...Vincent Price, Peter Lorre, Boris Karloff, Joe E Lewis, and Basil Rathbone. Produced in 1963, this movie has a high rating on IMDB and on Rotten Tomatoes. Don't miss it!

Joe E. Brown is a hoot in this and the unlikely romance between Peter Lorre and Joyce Jameson is funny . Basil Rathbone is unrecognizable this far after his heyday as Sherlock Holmes but fans will recognize his voice . The color photography in this movie is vivid and rich , a far cry from the stuff you see today .
 
The fun starts for me in 10 minutes in the Mountain Standard Time Zone . “ Clear the air lanes ! Clear all air lanes for the big broadcast ! “
 
Horror flick fans:
Starting right now on METV on Svengoolie is an awesome movie… Invaders From Mars. It’s rated very highly on IMDB. Made in 1953 it should be a fun nostalgic watch.

It starts in 45 minutes where I am . I’ve never seen this one and the preview looks interesting . I wonder what that drill is going to do to that woman’s head ? Why does the weird Martian have to be carried about in a container ? These and other questions will soon be answered .
Clear the air lanes ! Clear all air lanes for the big broadcast !
 
Yeah, the ending was strange. It was all a dream but more like a premonition of what was to come. The martians were not very realistic… men in poor “Martian costumes. They should have used midgets or short youths to play the part of the martians. Albeit, it was a very entertaining and well made movie.
