This weekend on Creature Features: Those of you wh

This weekend on Creature Features: Those of you who were around in the 1970s know it was a truly unusual time. It woefully lacked the groovy vibe of the 60’s and definitely didn’t have the tech-hipness of the 80’s. But what it lacked from the eras for which it was flanked, it made up for with its own unique elements of style. While often derived for unleashing upon the world such vile hallmarks as “disco” and petrol shortages, the 1970’s did give us the incredible Star Wars and the delightful Farrah Fawcett.

Where this weekend’s movie falls within that spectrum is entirely up to you.

We’ll be presenting “The People” from 1972. It’s hard to tell you much about this film without spoiling it. But here’s a few interesting facts: it was filmed on the west end of Marin County, only a mere 24 miles from The Poulter Mansion in Bodega Bay. It was executive-produced by Francis Ford Coppola, who was too busy finishing The Godfather at the time to direct this one himself. It stars Kim Darby, who you might remember as the stubborn teenager in True Grit. And has what one can only describe as a cameo-plus appearance by William Shatner, who incidentally was again invited to come onto the show as a guest and again ungraciously declined Vincent’s most generous offer. Something silly about having to go into space. Right.

All this while Tangella flashes everyone, this Saturday night at 9PM Pacific Time at the YouTube link below, 10PM on KOFY TV20 and on-demand at our Roku, AppleTV and FireTV channels. Don’t miss it!

This weekend on Creature Features: Our viewer frie

This weekend on Creature Features: Our viewer friends that enjoy our program on YouTube are likely quite familiar with the wonderful Spooky Boo. She’s been kind enough to be our Chat Forum Nanny for the past several years. But what’s she’s really famous for is her spectacular storytelling on her fabulous podcasts that comprise Spooky Boo’s Scary Story Time, Creepypasta and True Scary Stories. And with this being the Halloween season, we couldn’t think of a better guest than our favorite distributor of spooky tales. She’ll chime in on the night’s movie, tell us some dreadful tales and let us know what she’s up to for Halloween.

And speaking of scary, our movie should do the job nicely for we’ll be presenting “Demon Witch Child” from 1975. There’s so much wrong with this movie that we can’t begin to list it here. Those of you who like disturbing horror films will probably like it. But you might want to let the little kids sit this one out. Hopefully, someone is running “It's the Great Pumpkin, Charlie Brown” on another station.

All this while Tangella gives Handrew the bug eyes, this Saturday night at 9PM Pacific Time at the YouTube link below, 10PM on KOFY TV20 and on-demand at our Roku, AppleTV and FireTV channels. Don’t miss it!

Mr. Livingston has been continuously reminding Vincent that the manor needs repainting. Handrew agrees and has been requesting quotes. But Vincent likes it the way it is stating, “It serves to keep door-to-door salesman away as it makes us look like we’re broke.” Tangella wants to keep it as it is simply because, as she puts it, “The creepier the better.” What do you think?

This weekend on Creature Features: Those of you wh

This weekend on Creature Features: Those of you who watch the show on the regular know that there’s not much we can do to keep Tangella nearby for the entire program. But one sure-fire method we employ is to invite over a guest that brings a collection of furry creatures. And that’s exactly what we’re doing this weekend. We’ll be joined by the wonderful Bonnie Cromwell from Classroom Safari. She’ll share with us a portion of her delightful menagerie and will even teach Tangella how to properly feed a sloth.

And between the Wild Kingdom segments, we’ll be watching “Deathdream” (formerly titled “Dead of Night”) from 1974. The story revolves around a soldier named Andy who was lost at war and mysteriously returns to his family’s home. At first, everything is great but then things start going bad and you’ll be left wondering if Andy is a zombie, a vampire or simply some poor actor hoping he’ll be moving on to do better things.

All this while Tangella puts all her eggs into one basket, this Saturday night at 9PM Pacific Time at the YouTube link below, 10PM on KOFY TV20 and on-demand at our Roku, AppleTV and FireTV channels. Don’t miss it!

This weekend on Creature Features: Nightmares can

This weekend on Creature Features: Nightmares can be serious business. Especially when you have to retell your worst to a group of men sipping aperitifs whilst locked in a luxurious basement. This weekend we’ll be watching “The Vault of Horror” from 1973, based on the comic book of the same name. Starring Tom Baker and Terry-Thomas, it packs that wonderful stuffy-British-horror motif we’ve all come to know and love.

Joining us to watch this fun film will be a surprise guest. Surprise, meaning that as of this writing, the guest has not fully committed to coming up to do the show so the surprise will likely be that there will be no guest at all.

All this while Tangella clocks Handrew, this Saturday night at 9PM Pacific Time at the YouTube link below, 10PM on KOFY TV20 and on-demand at our Roku, AppleTV and FireTV channels. Don’t miss it!

This weekend on Creature Features: We have a great

This weekend on Creature Features: We have a great ghost story for you this weekend: “Don’t Go To Sleep” from 1982. This stars Valerie Harper and Dennis Weaver. We know - it sounds like a really bad TV movie of the week but we think you’ll enjoy it. It also stars the wonderfully brash Ruth Gordon and Oliver Robins. You’ll remember the latter from “Poltergeist” who had issues with the tree outside his window. Talk about a kid who knows ghosts…

Joining us as our guest will be our old friend Jackie Kong. When she’s not creating fun horror movies like “Blood Diner” she likes to visit the Poulter Mansion and watch a crummy movie with us. She’ll tell us about her exciting new project and bring a bit of fashion to our guest chair.

All this while Tangella broadens her musical horizons, this Saturday night at 9PM Pacific Time at the YouTube link below, 10PM on KOFY TV20 and on-demand at our Roku, AppleTV and FireTV channels. Don’t miss it!

This weekend on Creature Features: If you’ve eve

This weekend on Creature Features: If you’ve ever seen any type of mummy movie, you’ve probably learned that it’s not good to mess around with ancient Egyptian artifacts. Well, this weekend we shall learn that hard lesson once again as we present for you “The Cat Creature” from 1973. Starring a young Meredith Baxter, an older Gale Sondergaard and an always-ancient John Carradine, this spooky tale revolves around the cat goddess Bastet and why you would be wise not to cross her path.

Joining us to watch this fun film from the seventies will be the lovely ladies from The Redwood Witchery - an emporium of potions and other items used in the magical arts. This place is not too far from the mansion and Tangella spends a goodly amount of time (and money) there. They’ll tell us what it is like to be a practicing witch and they’ll chime in about our movie.

All this while Tangella has a duel with voodoo, this Saturday night at 9PM Pacific Time at the YouTube link below, 10PM on KOFY TV20 and on-demand at our Roku, AppleTV and FireTV channels. Don’t miss it!

This weekend on Creature Features: If you were eve

This weekend on Creature Features: If you were ever a child and you had access to a television, you’d likely recall watching Japanese King Kong movies on Saturday afternoon matinee monster movie shows. And one of the best in that category of films was “King Kong Escapes.” Our guest this weekend will be the wonderful star of that movie, Ms. Linda Miller. She’ll tell us about how she was chosen for that role, what it was like portraying Susan Watson and about that time she was on My Three Sons.

Movie-wise, we’ll be screening “The Crawling Eye” from 1958. This is pretty good film we last showed a few years ago. Originally titled “The Trollenberg Terror”, this one stars Forrest Tucker, Laurence Payne and Jennifer Jayne. It a good movie that shows that there are things on the Swiss Alps far more terrifying than yodelers.

All this while Tangella hacks into a mainframe, this Saturday night at 9PM Pacific Time at the YouTube link below, 10PM on KOFY TV20 and on-demand at our Roku, AppleTV and FireTV channels. Don’t miss it!

This weekend on Creature Features: Having a taglin

This weekend on Creature Features: Having a tagline that goes “The Maddest Story Ever Told”, you’d think it was a film about an insane asylum. And perhaps it actually is. But we call it “The Funnest Horror Film Ever Made” and we’ll be screening it this weekend. With creator Jack Hill’s blessing, no less. Starring Lon Chaney Jr., Carol Ohmart, Sid Haig, Jill Banner, Mantan Moreland and Quinn Redeker; this is a fabulously fun film about a psychotic family living in a creepy house. Sound familiar?

Oh…and we forgot to mention one of the main stars in the list above: Ms. Beverly Washburn. That’s because not only does she have a primary role in Spider Baby but she will also be our special guest for the evening. She’ll tell us how the film was made, how she won the part of Elizabeth and what Lon Chaney and Sid Haig are really like in person.

All this while Tangella casts a canned spell on Handrew, this Saturday night at 9PM Pacific Time at the YouTube link below, 10PM on KOFY TV20 and on-demand at our Roku, AppleTV and FireTV channels. Don’t miss it!

This weekend on Creature Features: Wikipedia descr

This weekend on Creature Features: Wikipedia describes David Skal as an American cultural historian, critic, writer, and on-camera commentator known for his research and analysis of horror films and horror literature. Vincent simply describes him as, “…a very pleasant bloke who knows a good deal more about horror movies than I.” David will join us to chat about the history of horror and how our favorite genre really got its start. He’ll tell us about the many projects he’s been involved with, what it’s like to create the commentary tracks for the video disks for some of the most famous horror films ever made and he’ll tell us the significance of our movie presentation, which happens to be:

“The Ghoul” from 1933, starring Boris Karloff. This film, which was Britain’s answer to the USA’s “The Mummy” revolves around an Egyptologist who thinks that an ancient jewel, which he has managed to possess, will give him the power of rejuvenation before he dies. A classic film served in the style we’ve all come to know and love.

All this while Tangella turns up the heat, this Saturday night at 9PM Pacific Time at the YouTube link below, 10PM on KOFY TV20 and on-demand at our Roku, AppleTV and FireTV channels. Don’t miss it!

This weekend on Creature Features: If you’ve eve

This weekend on Creature Features: If you’ve ever owned, operated or merely walked past one of those devices called a “television”, there is no doubt you’ve seen the young version of our upcoming guest. Joining us this weekend will be the wonderful Jerry Mathers. He portrayed Theodore Cleaver on the long running classic show, “Leave It To Beaver.” Jerry will tell us everything there is to know about that famous program, illuminate us as to what he’s been up to in the years since and let us know where he’ll be appearing next so that you can go meet him in person. He’ll also give us his input about the evening’s movie which is “The Doomsday Machine” from 1972. But don’t let the release date fool you. This film looks like it was made in the 60’s. Or at least the production designers maybe failed to consult a calendar. Either way, it’s a slightly amusing story and a bit easier to understand than 2001. All this while Tangella treats Handrew like a dog, this Saturday night at 9PM Pacific Time at the YouTube link below, 10PM on KOFY TV20 and on-demand at our Roku, AppleTV and FireTV channels. Don’t miss it!
