WMAQ Channel 5 - Movie 5 - "The Ape Man" (Opening & PSA's, 1988)

Views: 3385

Here is the opening of a late movie feature of "The Ape Man" on WMAQ Channel 5.

Views: 8192

At the end of a tape, after a recording of a movie ended, there was a bit of a previous recording that was taped over. We see most of the National Anthem, then some strange black and white bars, and then static. In the static you can hear bleeding through what perhaps was on another channel at the same time (during the static the tape kept speeding up which is why the audio races at times)

RetroNewfoundland (Vintage Canada) was enterprising enough to slow down the audio heard a...
