OUTER SPACE ADVENTURE AND EARTH BOUND ACTION!!! – THIS WEEK ON THE FRIDAY FUN-TIME FIVE!!!
We’ve got attacking aliens, space station problems, creepy creeps. and fun-filled adventures from classic TV this week on the Beta Max TV FRIDAY FUN-TIME FIVE!
Uncle Pete relaxes in the Dark Vault Den as he takes a a walk down memory lane for a gaggle of programs from televisions Golden Age in THE CLASSIC TV SPECIAL – Pt. 1 on The Dark Vault Of Public Domain! It’s a look back at some classic TV from his deep vaults including Johnny Sokko and His Flying Robot, the Synchro-Vox animation action cartoon series Clutch Cargo and Space Angel, the rarely seen television series with Boris Karloff – The Veil, and an episode of Fu Manchu. Plus fun extras!
There’s more classic TV and more space – outer space, that is, on The Weirdness Really Bad Movie presentation of DESTINATION SPACE. Dave and Mike go to Alien Vacation Mini Golf for the pilot episode of a 1959 TV show about adventures on a space station orbiting Earth. Plus there’s an episode of Spaceship 1 with Cleveland TV icons Big Chuck, Little John and more
There’s more suspense and action in Earth’s orbit as Triv and Ritch present BATTLE OF THE WORLDS on The Midnight Movie. A rogue asteroid starts orbiting Earth causing some concern and when flying saucers from it start attacking, a force of rockets is sent to do battle to save the planet (Italy, 1961)
There’s a creepy creep creeping ‘cross campus in THE COLLEGE GIRL MURDERS in Mansion Of Mystery A crimson hooded killer terrorizes a town as he murders coeds with a whip, acid and poison gas in this 1967 German thriller. CJ gets blamed for werewolf related events at the nearby college but did he do them or is he being framed?
And there’s one more bit of creeping – but not very loud – in THE BAT WHISPERS on Spine Chilling Cinema. Olive The Caretaker has a bit of dark mystery – with a hint of comedy – in this 1930 film. After stealing a valuable necklace, master criminal The Bat finds a secluded country mansion where he terrorizes the occupants while hiding out as they occupants and the police desperately try to find him.

COOL PEOPLE, LOTS OF EPISODES, AND A MONSTER OR TWO!!! – THIS WEEK ON THE FRIDAY FUN-TIME FIVE!!!
We’ve got a line-up full of creative people. Greek gods, fun, and evil in this week’s Beta Max TV FRIDAY FUN-TIME FIVE!!!
Uncle Pete rounds up some western action – and a hunk of slapstick in TRINITY IS STILL MY NAME on The Dark Vault Of Public Domain. Bambino and Trinity (Bud Spencer and Terrence Hill) try to follow the last wish of their father and become good outlaws, but end up being mistaken for Federal agents, saving a pioneer family and breaking up an arms ring instead (1971).
Then it’s the spin-off block-buster show spawned from Beaucoup Askew’s Fashion Trashin that gets you the stuff you need to know! It’s TRASH FLASH! We’ve got the first 2 episodes of Fashion Trashin’s new interview show where Cinnamon and Diamond talk to cool, creative, fun people from all over! In episode 1, Cinnamon and Diamond talk with awesome rock ‘n’ roller Abstract Artemis and in episode 2 it’s wildly creative actor/puppeteer Rocco George.
Triv and Ritch revisit a classic, little seen anthology show called GHOST STORY on The Midnight Movie. Here we have 2 episodes from the 70s anthology series: in House Of Evil (with Jodie Foster) – Grandpa brings gifts with evil secrets, and in Elegy For A Vampire (with Hal Linden) – coeds at a college are turning up dead and a professor studying vampires may be involved.
It’s a herculean battle with invaders and an invasive plant like ya read about in VENUS AGAINST THE SON OF HERCULES on Formerly Crappics. When the god Mars comes to Earth to help a king defeat an invading army, he falls in love with maiden Daphne but finds she is to be sacrificed to a plant monster which he must battle to save her (1962) With Freezer Mortis out and about, Dr. Posterius hosts.
And finally, it’s the other stuff you’ve been waiting to hear all about fun times in the mid-west as Cleveland At Nite presents SPRINGTIME IN CLEVELAND – Pt. 2! The Unknown Annoying Comic guest hosts again, this time for the 2nd half of Galaxy Invader (an alien hunted by inept hillbillies after he crash lands on Earth) with lots more music and fun to celebrate Springtime in Cleveland!
Cowboys, aliens, monsters, demi-gods, and Cleveland – it’s all here in the FRIDAY FUN-TIME FIVE (Special Saturday Edition) on your home for B-movies… and fun every day! Beta Max TV!!!
