And I just found out about this site, The Monster Chanel themonsterchannel.com/(I'm watching "Kung Fu Theater" now, finally we get to the "Beyond" part of the subject header!)

The Green Slime (1968) First time viewing since mom and pops took us to see it at the drive-in a loooong time ago. I enjoyed it, it might not match Honda's sci-fiers around this time (like Latitude Zero), and some of the FX are pretty weak, but for Japanese cheese (a co-production with the U.S.), it entertained.
My favorite part was the groovy theme song!

One of the first drive-in double features I made in Windows Movie Maker was Latitude Zero and The Green Slime. Extremely cheesy, and a lot of fun.

Boy, that Humanoid movie on Svengoolie tonight was pretty inert. Some interesting ideas, but more like a book on tape than a film. I'm surprised Sven didn't mention a certain credit for George Milan, he played Merlin in Merlin's Shop of Mystical Wonders.
Milan did a lot of TV work, and just a few movies... but I've now seen 3 of them.

Yeah not going to lie that was one slog of a movie last night on Sven.

I didn't know that about Milan. I've got the drive-in double feature DVD Dark Sky released in 2006 with Humanoids and War Between The Planets (the only Gamma One movie not released by MGM or whose rights are held by WB). Glenn Erickson of DVD (now Cine) Savant wrote a pretty good review of the set when it hit the market, although he readily admits it's dull as hell: www.dvdtalk.com/dvdsavant/s1962crea.html

Funny, I turned on the TV to watch Svengoolie, a few minutes early, and there's Murray Alper taking 3 bowling balls on the head in a 3-Stooges short. Then Black Friday plays on Sven, and there he is again, playing a bellhop. Was it Murray Alper day on MeTV? (he had parts in about 111 movies from the '30s to mid '60s... so it was just the law of averages - but it almost made me want to stay up and see if he was on the show after Svengoolie, and then after that. How much Alper can I spot in a night?)

Sven was showing House of Horrors last night with Rondo Hatton. The movie uses The Brute Man's opening titles with Rondo's shadow walking menacingly. I guess had Rondo didn't die suddenly we could have gotten more in this "series"
