WFLD Channel 32 - Son of Svengoolie - "Frankenstein Meets the Wolfman" (Promo, 1980)

Views: 2812

Here's a rare old promo for Son of Svengoolie episode number 46, showing the movie, "Frankenstein Meets The Wolfman". This episode aired on Saturday, May 24th 1980 at 8pm.

This was before they had the Son of Svengoolie theme song (written by Doug Scharf) and instead were still using the old Jerry G. Bishop Svengoolie theme, "Rumble".

I knew I remembered Sven making a Rula Lenska reference!...

The Lost Snipets - "PeaScraper" (A FuzzyMemories Re-Creation)

Views: 1085

I had some additional Snipets segments but they were transferred from 16mm film and did not have the opening and closing on them. So, I did a little editing job and added them in. This was an early one, circa 1975 (ok it's a minute long but not all of the early ones were short) I found something cool to add to this - the circa 1975 title for Snipets, during the Kaiser Broadcasting era! Notice it is a little different from the Field era one that took over in 1977. Enjoy.

This was an early one, notice it's only 30 seconds long as opposed to the usual 1 minute length that most were in later years. I found something cool to add to this - the circa 1975 title for Snipets, during the Kaiser Broadcasting era! Notice it is a little different from the Field era one that took over...

WGN Channel 9 - Emergency Broadcast System - "This is NOT a Test" (1985)

Views: 2828

Here's a pretty spooky clip - transferred from an RCA Quad cart (for playing on model TCR-100 cart machines) loaded with 2" videotape.

A Fuzzy Personal Note: "I grew up at the height of the 2nd great nuclear war scare period (the first being the Cuban Missile Crisis of course), having been chilled to the bone from seeing movies like “The Day After” in 1983 when I was nine years old. So this clip was very fascinating to me, and seems to be a glimpse at what we might ...
