WFLD Channel 32 - Son of Svengoolie - "Evil Of Frankenstein" - "Doug Hosts" (1985)

Views: 2153

Here's a compilation of all the "bits" that survived from a recording of Son of Svengoolie episode #316 featuring the movie "Evil of Frankenstein". (there wasn't a whole lot so I just decided to put it all in one)

The notable thing about this episode was that there's no Sven - Rich was absent for some reason and so Doug fills in as host.

Anyone know the real name of the song that Doug does a parody of? Is it by Alan Parsons Project?

Views: 5334

Here is a very brief glimpse of a bumper for the WGN Channel 9 Saturday Matinee - at the end of a presentation of "Abbott and Costello Meet Frankenstein".

If you pause the video at the right spot, you can see the yellow Saturday Matinee slide featuring a movie camera. This is the only example of this bumper or opening we have right now.

Not sure of the date, but this probably aired on local Chicago TV in late 1981 (around Halloween?) or perhaps 1982.

They answered an easy preliminary questi...
