Mother Heathen
The truth? The last movie I saw was Barbie's The 12 Dancing Princesses.
My daughter turned five last week and that was one of her birthday presents. She loves it. I'm just so happy that we're out of the "Bob the Builder" and "Barney" phases. They worked my nerves a little bit.

Z CHANNEL: A MAGNIFICENT OBSESSION
DVD/ Color/ 120 Mins./ NR/ 2004
Founded in 1974 and based in Los Angeles, the Z Channel was the nation's first pay-cable station, preceding HBO or Showtime. At its pinnacle in the early 1980s, it served only 100,000 viewers, but nonetheless inspired and influenced the movie industry with its eclectic fare, securing a unique place in film history. IFC Films and director Xan Cassavetes celebrate the Z Channel and its founder, Jerry Harvey, with this captivating documentary.
Finally a profile of someone with a passion for diverse films. I was enthralled with this documentary and only wished that I had access to this channel when I was younger. Jerry Harvey was not only knowledgeable of film, he trusted his audience with what he knew he enjoyed and did not pander to the common Hollywood denominator.
NIGHT OF THE BLOODY APES
DVD/ Color/ 76 Mins./ NR/ 1967
A doctor transplants the brain of an ape into his dying son who transforms into a rampaging ape bent on blood and violence. The violence is pretty graphic for 1967 and it includes womens wrestling and a love story.

The Mysterions
DVD/ Color/ 93 Mins./ NR/ 19??
Aliens from outer space flee from their nuclear destroyed planet and land on earth. They claim to come in peace but begin making requests for earth land and earth women to repair their race. Japan is useless to stop them and their technology and give in to their demands while biding time to plan their defense. More of a sci-fi movie than a Japanese kaiju (a giant robot is only seen for awhile and is used ineffectively) but an enjoyable, entertaining film.
Swamp Diamonds (MST3K version)
DVD/ Color/ 93 mins./ NR/ 1955
Beverly Garland
Touch Conners (makes you wonder what other screen names he was considering)
Directed by Roger Corman (so you know its going to hurt)
A woman police officer infiltrates an all women prison to befriend the three girlfriends of jewel robbers and stages an escape with them into the heart of a Louisiana Bayou so that they can recover the hidden diamonds their jailed boyfriends stole. Touch Conners is a business man who is taken hostage by these four women and is at the mercy of their greed and lust (in other words, my kind of film).

The Mighty Gorga/ One Million AC/DC
DVD/ Color/ 148 Mins./ UR/ 1969
Another dreadful double feature from Something Weird Video (I would give my right arm to be employed there). The Mighty Gorga is an insipid twist on the King Kong mythos. Hokey gorilla suit with forced perspective camera angles to give a large appearance. Bad acting, pretty women and cheap budgets.
One Million AC/DC is a inexpensive caveman romp with gorillas?!?!?, stock footage of lava and swamps, plastic dinosaur figures (they didn’t even care to disguise the fact) tongue and cheek humor. Insufferable but short, cheap and uninteresting.

Teenage Strangler (MST3K version)
DVD/ Color/ 93 Mins./ NR/ 1991
I was first treated to an old school film entitled Is This Love and then the main feature Teenage Strangler, about an ordinary rural town that automatically experienced mysterious murders who were not all teenagers and who werent even killed by a teenager. Made in 1961, I experienced plenty of black leather jackets, fast talking cops, nerdy brothers and drag racing!! Another terrible movie made better by Mike and the bots. Special features included extra outtakes from the Satellite of Love segments.

The Giant Spider Invasion (MST3K version)
DVD/ Color/ 93 Mins./ NR/ 1975
Well the spiders werent all that large and the giant spider at the end was shot from the thorax down to eliminate the fact that it was a costume propelled by a car during the times it chased people. Both Alan and Beverly Hale were in this movie and the first time you see the Skipper of The Minnow he comes out with his famous line Whats up Little Buddy. Slow going but enough material for Mike and the bots to rip on.
