Views: 6585

At long last! More Nite-Owl footage! (The first "new" Nite-Owl footage found for over 10 years!) Picture's a bit fuzzy, but of course we can't be picky.

Here is Part 1 of footage from a Nite-Owl New Year's "Special".

Modification Notice: In the interest of full disclosure, (since I try my best to keep things as authentic as possible here) I have to mention that in Part 1 I had to make some edits/overdubs in the audio only. The first one occurs at 02:44...

Son Of Svengoolie - "I Was A Teenage Werewolf" (Opening, 1980/1982)

Views: 1490

Here is something kind of unique - the opening for Son of Sven featuring the film "I Was A Teenage Werewolf". However, this opening was used twice - once for episode number 34 (the first time he showed the movie) and again for episode number 156 (the second time he showed it) with slight variation. You can identify the older footage by noticing Sven's bushier mustache which coincides with that era.

It looks like for episode 156 he just tacked on the beginning segment with the...

WFLD Channel 32 - Movie For A Saturday Afternoon - "The Big Broadcast of 1938" (Bumper Excerpt, 1979)

Views: 3036

Here's another small but rare excerpt of a bumper for the "Movie for a Saturday Afternoon" presentation of the Bob Hope and W.C. Fields movie, "The Big Broadcast of 1938" on WFLD Channel 32.

If you pause it at the right moment you can make out the "film strip" framing as well as the old "Kaiser-era" 32 logo and some kind of green-jelly like effect in the background (which was evidently used for this program as late as 1980).

This aired on local Chicago TV on Sat...

Views: 1509

Here's one of the few glimpses yet found of a show that a lot of people remember and have requested footage of - Monster Rally Movie! This aired on WSNS Channel 44 and reportedly had it's own host - a mysterious figure in a creepy costume. Here we get to see another partial commercial bumper from the show - the only type of footage (other than the movie itself) known to exist currently. The movie this night was the very weird 1973 film Lemora: A Child's Tale of the Supernatural.
