So come on, guys, let's get this place jumping!
How about movie requests for OBC? Personally I'd like to see some old SF films like "creation of the humanoids" and "12 to the moon".
What do you want to see on OBC, cats?

Thanks for responding, Mr. Truth. I think you're a pretty good singer, and I liked your rendition of "Celluliod heroes" on the anniversary show. Any way I could get a MP3 of that?
BTW, can you guys ever show "The x from outer space"? I like that hokey horror hokum! |

well thanx for the kudos. Im working on a cd as we speak(type) and that will probably be one of the songs. Stay Tuned...
As far as specific film requests, we are always looking for new or should I say old movies... so keep those requests coming we want to know what you need out there in the void. |

If you cats really want to get this place swinging, be sure to mention that maxwell occasionally puts in appearances on the forum at offbeat cinema.com and actually talks to peeps here.
BTW, a great movie that's free and public domain, two of them, actually, are "Voyage to the prehistoric planet" and "Planet of prehistoric women" which are basically both converted versions of an old russian movie called "Planet of storms". |

Caltiki the Immortal Monster is a good B&W. Perfect for the show.

I'd vote for "Caltiki the Immortal Monster"! Somewhere in my all-too-vast videotape collection, I have a grainy copy of this rather obscure classic that definitely has a cult following. It used to be shown frequently in the Sixties and early Seventies, but slipped from view.
There are so many that I've seen a few times or even just once and would love to have a copy of, even in fragmented form. At the top of my list is "The Asphyx", which I remember being quite remarkable.
I finally had the opportunity to see "Attack of the Crab Monsters". Except for the big eyes painted on the shells, this really is quite good. I was astonished how much of it matched my memories of seeing it in the Fifties-Sixties.
Oh! I know one that is fascinating especially because the story changes midway: "The Undead". The opening is influenced by "The Search for Bridie Murphy"; the rest, by~um... Well, it seems to be set in medieval times, and there's witchery and the Devil, with Dick Miller thrown in, an always-welcome sight. What a cutie! Yes. "The Undead" would be an excellent one for OBC!
Perhaps I'll think of all of those I've been longing to see again.
Oh! I know another one: "Curse of the Faceless Man"! I saw this at the drive-in way back when. I was sooooo happy when I was able to videotape it. I've seen it attacked, but I love it as much now as I did back then. Once more, my memories proved true, with so many scenes firmly imprinted. Now, if only I could remember real people as clearly as reel people. *groan* The pun overcame my judgment. Blame all of those years of reading Forry's commentary in "Famous Monsters of Filmland". I still have many copies of that magazine.
Oh! I know another: "Sound of Horror"! Someone at Yahoo!Answers told me about this film and guided me to a clip of it on YouTube. Now, I want to see it! I want to see the invisible dragon or dinosaur or whatever it is! Well, you know what I mean! You actually only see the critter when it's burning, a bit like the Creature of the Id in "Forbidden Planet", wouldn't you say?

I have a fair to good DVD copy of "Caltiki, the Immortal Monster". It contains all the nicks and drops from an old 33mm copy, but it's clean enough to enjoy. The condition of the copy actually adds to the enjoyment factor for me.
