WFLD Channel 32 - The Koz Zone - "The Astro-Zombies" - "Beginnings..." (1989)

Views: 765

Here's the first few minutes of the very first Koz Zone episode (before it had a name even) - back when he was really playing up the idea of being a video pirater. The first movie he showed was "The Astro-Zombies" (which he also showed on Son of Svengoolie at one point).

Here is another clip from WTTW Channel 11 Sneak Previews with a review of Blade Runner, Pranks (A.K.A. Death Dorm), the Pheobe Cates - Willie Ames movie "Paradise", and the ending credits to the show.

I can't believe they didn't have thumbs up or down back then. When the heck did they start that? I thought it was with them from very early on!

It's a shame neither Siskel or Ebert seemed to "get" Blade Runner, which is considered a classic by most people nowada...
