Saturday:
This one is kind of an old prune. We haven’t shown it in many years and our producers foisted it upon us until our new batch of films arrive. “Red Planet Mars” from 1951. The basic premise is that Earth’s scientists make startling contact with Mars, sparking widespread global consequences.
Saturday:
One of Vincent’s favorite movies with an all-star cast – The Screaming Woman” from 1972 starring Olivia de Havilland, Joseph Cotten and Walter Pidgeon. If you like movies about ghostly voices, cheating spouses, unsupportive family members and people who are buried alive, than this film will be quite a treat for you.
The fair and enigmatic Tangella doth prowl the shadows, a mischievous sprite whose mirthful mayhem knoweth no bounds.
Coming soon.
Saturday:
This one falls more into the thriller category than horror or sci-fi, but it’s still well-worth the watch – “The Sadist” from 1963 starring Arch Hall Jr. and Marilyn Manning. Apparently, this was the inspiration for the 1994 film “Natural Born Killers” with Woody Harrelson and Juliet Lewis.
Saturday
We’ve foisted this one upon our valued viewers only a few years ago – “Whatever Happened to Aunt Alice?” from 1969. Unlike most of the loud and bloody horror films we tend to present on Saturday nights, this one is far more tranquil and cerebral.
Saturday:
We’ll be joined by Jon & Krysten Sarriugarte. He’s a brilliant mechanical engineer, she’s an award-winning sound designer for Lucasfilm. Together they create some of the coolest drivable inventions we’ve ever seen. You won’t want to miss a second of Vincent’s chat with them as we watch:
“Grave Secrets” from 1989.
Saturday:
“Attack of the Crab Monsters” from 1957. Yes, it is indeed just as good as it sounds. Especially since it could potentially fulfill the lifelong dream of many: to see the Professor from Gilligan’s Island (Russell Johnson) engage in hand-to-claw combat with an over-sized Arthropoda on a desert isle.
Saturday:
This is a new one for us. Maybe for you as well: “City of the Living Dead” from 1980. We’re guessing it has zombies, based on the poster. But you can never trust those things anymore. However our guest, mask maker Bart Frescura, assures us that it’s worth a watch and he’s pretty much an expert on that stuff.
Saturday:
It will be another night of classic sci-fi as we bring you “War of the Satellites” from 1958. Yes, we’ve shown this one before, but hopefully you forgot most of it – much like we have. Starring Dick Miller and Susan Cabot, this low-budget Roger Corman production is sure to leave you thrilled into a deep slumber.
Saturday:
It will be a night of time-traveling aviation as we’re joined again by director David Giancola to watch his seminal feature, “Time Chasers” from 1994. Starring Matthew Bruch with a most-epic mullet and Bonnie Pritchard with a sense of fashion only the 1990’s could love, we’ll go on an adventure into the past, present and future.
Thanks everybody!

Saturday:
We have a bit of a treat in store for some of our older friends from the San Francisco Bay Area – we’ll be joined by Captain Cosmic and his loyal sidekick, robot 2T2. The rest of the world knows little about this interstellar hero, but we’ll bring you up to speed on the night of the show.
