Trying To Explain Sci-Fi Films of The 1970s






Rev. Lee sent me this cartoon which I found quite humorous, and instead of just emailing it to everyone, I copped it up for the blog. This shows is a great illustration for the generation gap, and it doesn't even mention tag lines from WEREWOLVES WITH WHEELS, ZARDOZ, and Ray Milland at the end of his career film, THE INCREDIBLE MELTING MAN, or THE TERRIBLE TWO-HEADED TRANSPLANT (with Milland and Rosy Grier: tag line by Grier's girlfriend, "Is that all you have two of?") Also the craziest ending in any film, Rosy and his girl and some black dude who probably was like Lamont's friend on SANFORD & SON driving around, playing the radio, and singing "Happy Days Are Here Again." Oh, and let's not forget THE GIANT SPIDER INVASION. I see another post in my future. And, no, that's not a tag line from the film...Wayne

I'm Being Followed By A Moonshadow




The subject heading would have read I Am Zardoz, but I didn't think many of you would know of that strangle little Sean Connery film, but then again, how many of you are familiar with Cat (Yusef) Stevens lyrics? I took the train up north to eat pizza and watch some films with Larry and Tycelia at their apartment. Larry showed me a new camera thingie on his wife's Mac and we took a few photos. That's Larry in the center, but almost all of you know that already. I had to cut out around 10 PM because it takes about two hours to get home via train, then bus, but the coolest moment was as I walked down Wilton Street a block to the el. From some apartment, "Riders On The Storm" was playing. I heard it my entire time and let it fade with ...killer on the road as I turned onto noisy Belmont Avenue. Anyways, here's the photos...Wayne
