IT’S A RED, WHITE, BLUE, AND CLASSIC HORROR FRIDAY FUN-TIME FIVE THIS WEEK ON BETA MAX TV!!!
It’s Independence Day weekend! So the Beta Max TV FRIDAY FUN-TIME FIVE is celebrating with a red, white, and blue special and classic horror!
It’s a tri-color walk down memory lane with THE RED, THE WHITE, AND THE BLUE FROM THE GOLDEN AGE OF TELEVISION special! A celebration of red, white, and blue in commercials and cartoons including the animated treats The Lady In Red, Betty Boop in Snow White, and Susie the Little Blue Coupe and assorted classic ads for beer, detergent, shampoo, and more!
The classic horror legend continues as Ritch, Triv and the rest of the bearded gang feature the big guy with the big feet in BOGGY CREEK 2 – THE LEGEND CONTINUES on The Midnight Movie. It’s the official sequel to the story of a huge harry man-like creature in the wilds of Arkansas. A scientist and crew set up camp near the sightings and relate stories while searching for the beast (1984)
Marquis DeBlood presents a legend of classic horror in HE WHO GETS SLAPPED on The Horror Of It All’s Silent Screams. Lon Chaney stars in this 1924 tale of an inventor, betrayed by a scheming man, who becomes a circus clown and finds he must save the woman he loves, a fellow circus performer, from the clutches of his betrayer.
It’s more classic horror from Mistress Malicious with HOUSE ON HAUNTED HILL on Mistress Peace Theatre. An eccentric man tells 5 guests they will each earn $10,000 if they spend the night in his haunted house (Vincent Price, 1959) Mistress Malicious investigates to find who has drained her wine cellar dry!
And it’s classic horror – with a musical twist – in the Mansion Of Mystery presentation of DR. JEKYLL AND MR. HYDE. It’s a 1973 musical TV version of the story of a doctor who develops a drug to release man’s inner evil. CJ the werewolf falls in love and tries to become human and a strange cousin of Scarlett’s visits from England.
Red, white and blue fun and classic horror! Celebrate your independence from boring TV with your home for B-movies… and fun! Beta Max TV!!!

There’s a world of bad dudes on The Midnight Movie with the 1983 film STRYKER. Triv and Ritch and the gang feature a post-apocalyptic film from the Philippines about rival tribes clashing while searching for the last sources of drinkable water.
A bad guy gets even badder after a signing a satanic sales contract in THE DEVIL’S PARTNER on After Hours Cinema.

It’s wholesale destruction meets luchador fashion in the review of the 1991 Mexican action film LA VENGANZA DE LOS PUNKS on Mondopiece Theatre. Members of a violent and flamboyant gang break out of jail to destroy the family of the cop who caught them. But he survives to exact a special vengeance!
