I kind of hate to tell you this, but Martha McMaster who played Emily Of New Moon, was in the remake of Last House On The Left. She was also in Superbad, (with Seth Rogan another Canadian.) I'm not going to tell you what happens to her, but it ain't pretty.

I saw Paul Gross in a World War I film last night called *Passendaele* which he also directed. He was also really good as the Jack Nicholson character in the short lived Eastwick series. Another great Canadian film is *Last Night* dirceted by actor Don McKellar. Sandra Oh, David Cronenberg, And Genvieve Bujold are also in it. The ending is amazing.

Both David Soul and Paul Michael Glaser were in the movie version of Starsky And Hutch. I didn't see it but Kim Richards had a cameo in the remake of Escape To Witch Mountain.

"Do you have times? I would say roughly every two hours. It depends on the film and actress. A lot of them are very beautful but kind of obscure.

A Lifetime Movie is a TV Film Shown mostly on either the Lifetime Movie Network, or Lifetime itself on the weekends. They tend to feature women ages 25 to 45. Also they feature a scene where the actress does a semi erotic love scene with her in a bra and panties. For more information google Lifetime Movie or look it up under wikipedia. Here are the next few LMN Movies Comming up: Seduced And Betrayed, (Susan Lucci) The Perfect Bride (Sammi Davis Voss / Kelly Preston/Linda Evans) Dark Beauty (Elizabeth Berkley) Be Seeing You (Alison Eastwood)

It seems every Lifetime Movie made is shot in Canada. Some Canadian names to look out for: Paul Gross Sara Lind Katherine Isobelle Jewel Staite Emily Perkins Natasha Henstrisge (from Species films and Eli Stone) Tamara Hope Don't forget William Shatner and Lorne Green are both Canadian. If you want to see a good Canadian made horror trilogy check out the *Ginger Snaps Trilogy*. Some other good Canadian films are Turning Page, Borderline Normal, Men With Brooms, and Posers.

Was she related to Jack Albertson?

I've had dreams about movies that never existed. Usually when media enter my dreams it's about TV; Such as the 1966 Batman series. (I've been dreaming of that show for 35 years, I once had a dream that Stan Laurel was a villian, his name was in the yellow font.) I've also had dreams about Buffy The Vampire Slayer. Usually it's about how I missed a bunch of episodes.

Does anyone remember Troy McClure from The Simrpsons? When Phil Hartman died he was written out of the series. He is the epitomy of a has been Hollywood actor who will pretty much do anything. My question is which actor from past is most like him? I love the 1966 Batman series, but when Adam West did the voice of a talking toilet in a Saturday Morning cartoon I thought to myself "man he's become Troy McClure." My two favorite Troy McClure films are "Man Vs Nature The Road To Victory and Leper Backfield.

How about *The Fish That Saved Pittsburgh*.

*A Tree Grows In Brooklyn* was on the CBC last year. Peggy Ann Gardner was on Batman in the episode Ring Around The Riddler. She was also in Robert Altman's A Wedding which was just on Movieplex, another good comercial free channel, (their films are mostly more recient.)

While Channel 62 showed a lot of religous programing, it wasn't exactly a religous station. They also showed also ran cartoons, (The Archies, Felix The Cat 50's Version, The Groovie Ghoulies, Hoppity Hooper, Kimba) Dark Shadows, The Mod Squad, Merv Girffith the latter years, Dr Who, and a few other things. It was largely known for a low budget dance show called The Scene which I was like a local version of Soul Train. It was on for twelve years from 1975 to 1987. To get back on track I was just wondering if these weird films that I barely remember made it to other cities. Judging by the response maybe they didn't.

I think the Ghoul was also on Channel 50 along with Bill Kennedy, (two very different shows, Bill Kennedy didn't blow up frogs, he just set fire to Ingrid Bergman in Joan Of Arc.) There is a board dealing with vintage Detroit TV, but it's ran it's course and has been spammed by some yutz in Kosovo. It's not what is was a few years ago.

Does anyone out there remember movies made by or distributed by a man named Joseph Green? They were weird European films made in the 70's, (or 60's.) In the Detroit area where I'm from they were shown late night by the Channel 62, the epitomy a low rent UHF station,(it's been owned by CBS since 1995.) Here is a list of some of their titles: Death On Credit Cry Onion Order To Kill Icy Breasts Death Knocks Twice Dragon Lady This particular late show was on when I was young and could not stay up late. I don't think many of these films made to TCM,(maybe TCM underground.) For some reason I've been nostalgic for the UHF programming of my youth. Even the stuff I missed out on. To be fair this channel showed normal movies that probally showed up on TCM.

Some people think Steve McQueen contacted Lung Cancer from the asbestos face hood he wore while racing. Somehow I don't think he wore it while flying.

I read Father Kieser Autobiography "Hollywood Priest" about 20 years ago. He seemed like a accepting easy going person. Sadly he died a few years ago. He was involved in some movies after the end of Insight. *Romero*, which was about the assassinated Archbishop Romero from El Salvodor. Also he did *Entertaining Angels*, which starred Moira Kelly as reformer nun Dorthy Day, (this was one of Brian Keith's last movies.) If he was still with us he'd be a good guest for TCM. I know Annette O'Toole did nudity in Cat People. What other movie was she naked in?

Does anyone out there remember a TV anthology series called *Insight.*? It was created by a Paulist Priest Elwood Kieser and told moralistic, but not exactly preachy stories. This part of It's Wikipedia page can explain it better than I can. Insight was an -emmy-winning syndicated television series produced by Paulist Productions that aired 250 episodes from 1960 to 1983. This series presented half hour dramas iluminating the contemporary search for meaning, freedom, and love. Insight was an anthology series, using an eclectic set of story telling forms including comedy, melodrama, and fantasy to explore moral dilemas. The series was created by Roman Catholic priest Ellwood E. "Bud" Kieser, The founder of Paulist Productions. A member of Paulist Fathers, an evangelstic Catholic order of priests, he worked in the entertainment community in Hollywood as a priest-producer and occasional host, using television as a vehicle of spiritual enrichment. This show seemed to be on some obscure UHF channel at some odd hour, (Sunday 6AM was common.) I once Heard Martin Scorsese watched this show, (he spend time studying in a seminary.) He mention seeing Rosanna Arquette in an episode as a woman who lost her baby. The performance impressed him so he cast her in his segment of New York Stories.

I kind of miss it. I heard this funny story. They once mocked a 80's film with Kim Catrall. One of the robots expressed affection for her. She responded by said robot flowers. I liked how Gypsy, the robot who showed the movies but wasn't around to mocked them, (except once) had a deep abiding love for Richard Basehart.

How about *I Sailed To Tahiti With An All Girl Crew*. I've never seen this film, but it was a staple on low rent late tv in the 70's and 80's, (Detroit's Channel 62.)

Incredeby Strange Creatures Who Stopped Living And Became Mixed Up Zombies, (ISCWSLABMUZ) was on TCM a couple of years ago. It's kind of boring. I remember on an old WKRP episode Herb Tarlek talking about seeing a porno film called *Kiss Me Kick Me*. I don't think it exists. I'm not sure about the existance of *Snow White And The Seven Sailors.*

*I Dismember Mama* *Monsturd*, (I'm not seeing this movie!!)

If you get Comcast On Demand they're showing *The Falcon Takes Over* for $2.99. If you look under the Movie section, look into the mystery genre and it's there.

I'm not sure if this person is still alive, but Michael J Weldon publisher of the Psychotronic Video Guide would be a good Halloween host.

Elvira currently has a show on THIS. She's getting kind of long in the tooth.

He had a small part in I Never Promised You A Rose Garden. He was part of Katherine Quinland's schizophrenic character hallucinations. This film is not as shown as much as Grease, (which at times seemed to be on cable every week.) Maybe TCM should air it. Anyway, I always thought Taxi was the definitive sitcom. Our local station in Detroit showed it at 11:30 PM for at least six years.
