Cable Obsessions in the Early '80s (47)
by
rik_tod
Cable was still new to me, and so were R-rated films. Some films, owing to less or more limited material being available to the cable markets at the time, were played about two dozen times in a month. Watched Mad Max and Alien about 75 times each in this

Afternoons in Rapture: KTVA Matinees 1976-79 (82)
by
rik_tod
The Alaska CBS affiliate, KTVA Channel 11, ran an afternoon movie matinée show from 3:00 to 5:00pm, and which I discovered at the perfect time in my life: starting when I was about 12. I saw the original King Kong here initially, and it forced me to

Would You Believe I Saw This In A Theatre...? (587)
by
rik_tod
Mainly a refuge for films that I was either too dumb to avoid in theatres, or that I was cajoled into by significant others, or girls that I wanted to make my significant others. But, as my buddy Aaron noticed by some "Loved It" and "Liked

KIMO Late Night: The World's Most Terrible Movies (35)
by
rik_tod
A show actually called "The World's Most Terrible Movies"... mostly Hammer and Harryhausen, and the first place I ever saw Christopher Lee and Peter Cushing, but also where I met Michael Gough and his Horrors of the Black Museum. Saturday nights

Seriously, if you want to know this story, either see a better version or just read a damn book for once. It'll do you some good. Unless it's a crappy book, of course...

Monstrously Painful Disappointments at the Movies (165)
by
rik_tod
Not just bad movies, but ones that I felt at some point before seeing them that I was going to have a great time doing so. Must be films seen initially in theatres, not on DVD or VHS. Must be films that still cause me to involuntarily seek out rusty razor

Friday Night Dead: CBS Late Night in My Teens (27)
by
rik_tod
In my youth, CBS would run episodes of Kolchak the Night Stalker on Friday nights in the slot where Letterman now resides, and would run other shows on other nights as well. This is where I first saw The New Avengers, The Saint (with Roger Moore) and The

Schoolrooms & Cafeterias: It's No Way to Watch (18)
by
rik_tod
Films recalled from school or trips to gyms after-hours for "community" activities; you know, church with a different kind of preachiness, but a similar type of crowd control. Fresh popcorn, though...

by
rik_tod
It was in Anchorage, and the author was Lynne Reid Banks. The book she was pushing was her then current one about a hamster. Her financial rescue is not much of a story, but maybe someday I will write about it. A holdover from my long, long years with an
