Thank you for this. This is my favorite of Don Dohler’s films, for no other reason that stumbling upon it on Galaxy Theater on Channel 41 late on a Saturday midnight (along with DARK STAR, THE CREMATORS and FOES) some time in 1979 when I was a wee lad of 9.
Maybe we will see FOES (1977) some time in the future as well.
There is a blu ray from retromedia filled with extras. Well worth checking out.
This movie, together with “Fiend” by Don Dohler are 2 of my guilty pleasures.
They are horrible. Terrible. And yet, deliciously fun at the same time.
I remember Don Dohler’s film Fiend. I think it would find its place at Rarelust.
Don Dohler never fails.
thanks for this, a classic from my childhood.
Upgrade! Woo hoo!
Commentary is with actor George Stover, animator Ernest Farino, editor David Ellis, director of photography Britt McDonough; actors Tom Griffith, Richard Dyszel, Richard Geiwitz, Christopher Gummer, Greg Dohler, Kim Pfeiffer and Lon Talbot, assistant director/actor Tony Malanowski and creature effects artist John Cosentino.
Still so dear to me because not only is it a Local Production (I’m from the DC/MD/VA Area), but Dick Dyzsel–A.K.A. “Captain 20” (for WDCA-TV Channel 20 in Washington, DC) and most famously (and STILL Active!!) “Count Gore DeVol”–my hero since childhood, is in this (and practically ALL Of Don Dohler’s Home-Grown Sci-Fi).
And now, it’s upgraded. My Saturday Nights have just got wilder.
Thanks, Rarelust…and you too, “Count Gore”.
