WSNS Channel 44 - Monster Rally Movie - "Lemora: A Child's Tale of the Supernatural" (Partial Bumper #2, 1980)

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.

In this clip we see some of the movie, and then a different wipe-effect as the Monster Rally Movie slide appears.

The Monster Rally Movie slide gets cut off as they omitted the commercial - then it comes right back to the movie - however, you can
hear some different music and a woman's voice speaking. Was this part of the movie or something else?

When the movie returns you see the last bit of the return bumper and you hear a beep tone - this sounds to me like a note from the theme that TV-44 used for All Night Movies, which you can hear here.

This aired on local Chicago TV on Friday, July 4th 1980.
