Every Zuni fetish doll has his day, and Roy and I finally had our discussion about Dan Curtis’ “Trilogy of Terror” (1975), the ABC Movie of the Week, starring Karen Black – in four different roles, no less – that scarred everyone for life. At least it wasn’t “Don’t Be Afraid of the Dark.” That movie still makes me want to sleep with the light on. At any rate, as always, we spoil everything (if “Trilogy of Terror” CAN be spoiled), so watch at your peril.
Roy’s Tie-Dye Sci-Fi Corner livestreams on Facebook every Friday and Sunday at 7 pm EDT. I’m already the regular Friday co-host, but in the service of Halloween, my favorite holiday, I’ve signed on for Sundays this month, as well.
This Sunday, don’t fall asleep! We’ll be discussing Philip Kaufman’s superb 1978 remake of “Invasion of the Body Snatchers.”
In case you’re curious, here’s what we’ve got planned for the rest of the month:
October 11 “Invasion of the Body Snatchers” (1978)
October 16 “Kolchak: The Night Stalker”
October 18 “Night of the Living Dead” (1968)
October 23 “Soylent Green”
October 25 “The Devil Rides Out” (a.k.a. “The Devil’s Bride”)
October 30, “Young Frankenstein”
For “Soylent Green,” we’ll be joined by special guest Shari Bethman-Bjellquist.
And for “Young Frankenstein,” we’ll be joined by Michael Rizzo and Marybeth Ritkouski, our friends from SciFi Distilled. The October 30th broadcast will also include a virtual costume party, open to anyone who would care to participate.
If you’re blue and don’t know where to go to, why don’t you go where sci-fi sits? We’re spoilin’ all the hits!
