I don't know, TV was black & white. Then, so were the movies. B movies were kinda like shareware then. Ed Wood was real!

I believe so I also saw the 80's remake which was quite gory. Not something I'd watch now but it was okay when I liked that kind of thing. I'd like to see the original again

Well I hate to interrupt you movie buffs but I need to say goodnight. Hey calibob you remember black and white TV then you probably remember some of the early color TVs. Huge consoles with big CRTs and the color was hokey in some brands. Sure is a lot of change from today watching a 50" flat-screen. Good night all.

I know the guy who starred the colossal man was an Ed Wood regular. It was part of the honey I blew up the kid plot.

Elvira, the vampire lady was set to make a local appearance where I used to live back in the 80's. All the 'old' guys I worked with were all excited that she was gonna be there lol. I never thought she was attractive until just last year when I saw what she looked like without her vampire makeup. Wow.





This is how she looks in her vampire getup. Hard to believe its the same person!
