Here is the opening of the WGN Friday Night Movie presentation of "Fahrenheit 451" on WGN Channel 9.

Also includes a WGN Globe Station ID at the beginning. Voiceover by Jack Taylor.

Check out the film hair that sticks around at the beginning of the movie. Reminds me of that one cartoon where the character plucks it off the screen during the middle of the action. :-)

This aired on local Chicago TV on Friday, January 7th 1983.

This is pretty cool - an old movie opening that they may have used a version of on WFLD - one of WKBD's sister stations.

WTTW Channel 11 - Movie 11 - "Threads" (Opening, 1987)

Views: 1859

Here's the opening to a "Movie 11" presentation of Threads - a harrowing, deeply depressing look at the immediate and long-term effects of a full-scale nuclear war. This British film makes The Day After look like an episode of Gilligan's Island.

Just take your ol' Uncle Fuzz' advice - don't ever watch this movie - just don't. You'll feel better, trust me.

Features a quick bit of Fuzzy modification at the end, just for some morbid fun. ;-)

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. We also get to see (most of) another one of those great, spooky TV-44
