Hey Boys in Ghouls - Nice to see ya'll !!
HILLBILLYS
A mansion that appears
to be haunted is actually a front for three crooks, (Carradine,
Chaney and Rathbone), who are stealing atomic secrets. Two country
music stars, (Husky & Lansing), and their manager take shelter
from a storm in the house and are menaced by a gorilla, secret
panels, the crooks and a fake ghost. The juvenile
humour and the poor acting is only surpassed by the awful country
music concert that takes up the last remaining 20
minutes of the film. Not included here for any great film qualities,
but as a sad reminder of the decline of good horror actors in
their later years. This was Rathbone's last film, he died on
July 21st 1967.
Even with the long list of
stars, this movie's a real stinker. Hope Ya'll Enjoy It!

This week on Dumpsterpiece Theatre: QUICKSAND Mickey Rooney, Jeanne Cagney, Barbara Bates and Peter Lorre star in this noir tale of desperation and lies. One small indiscretion turns into another and another and the main character cannot pull himself up out of trouble, just like quicksand.

Junkyard John and Alphonso present this 1961
gorefest featuring Wilton Graff, June Kenney, and famous Brady
dad Robert Reed - looking young and hunky. IMdb plot synopsis: ((A group of teen-agers vacationing in the tropics take a boat out to a seemingly deserted island. They soon find, however, that the island is inhabited by a wealthy recluse and his staff. While their host is initially hospitable, he quickly reveals his true purpose: to hunt down and kill each of his visitors, as he has done with everyone unlucky enough to set foot on his island. Plotline written by Jean-Marc Rocher {rocher@fiberbit.net} )) This episode was originally broadcast LIVE on cable TV in Lancaster and Palmdale California. Soon after this episode, we made the decision to start taping our shows prior to broadcast.

August 29th, 2006 Finally! We're presenting, online for the first time ever, an entire episode from our broadcast days! This is the full two-hour presentation of SHE DEMONS (1958) - Not only do you get to see the whole film, but since it's only 77 minutes, you also get a DVD review of some Three Stooges releases at the time, some preview trailers, including "Children Shouldn't Play with Dead Things" and some classic drive-in intermission clips, in place of the local commericals. ... and the usual DumpTV shenanigans. For our new internet fans, this is what the show was like for 6 years, live every Friday night on a low-watt local TV station. ... enjoy!

This week, DumpTV pays tribute to Stan Freberg, who turned
80 years old on August 7th. I've been a Freberg fan since
my uncle played me John & Marsha in 1960. His
unique sense of humor is just a fresh (and relevant) today;
I hope you enjoy our humble tribute to one of America's
most original comic minds.

June 26th, 2006 Arthur Franz Hope all of you B-movie fans enjoy our little tribute to Arthur Franz, who passed away June 17th ath the age of 86. His daughter, Susan Martinson of Oxnard, said that he got married for the fourth time to Sharron last Valentine's Day and that his favorite film was "The Sniper," the 1952 film noir directed by Edward Dmytryk. My favorite Franz film is "The Atomic Submarine"; He has plenty of fans here at DUMPTV. ~Junkyard John

2006 Bet you thought we were all dead or in jail, but actually it's just been a case of the lazys. We all have real jobs in the unreal world which gives us more things to bitch about. Some of that will translate into a new series of short films, skits, revues--- you know, the same ol' Dumpsterpiece crap. But that's what we are here for. Besides, we miss humiliating ourselves in public and thought the internet would b a great place to broaden that embarrassment. I also want to get back into the film historian thing, because there are still hundreds of stories that were either told to me by the people who were there, or I was there myself. So I may as well fill you in on the unseen side of film making and the often bizarre array of people behind them. When I look back on those days, I am still in awe over some of the characters I met while covering "the Industry" for the A.V. Press and (briefly) Fangoria magazine. In fact, one of these days, I'll tell you how editor Tony Timpone 'fired' me and forbade me from ever being associated with his magazine ever again---like that was a bad thing. I'll also share reminisces with the late, great John Agar, who killed more monsters in '50s and '60s science fiction movies than just about anybody else; and he told some excellent stories. I am also going to transpose and print, for the first time EVER, my complete interview with the Godfather of Gore, Herschell Gordon Lewis. That's right, the KING. It is still one of my favorites and is pretty damn funny to boot. Soon-to-follow interviews will include Burlesque legend Kitten Natividad, cult movie icon Ray Dennis Steckler (with whom I worked with on and off for over 10 years), Yvette Vickers (of 'Giant Leeches' and '50 Foot Woman' fame), Les Tremayne (the original 'War of the Worlds' and 'The Monster of Piedras Blancas' ) to name but a few. I look forward to the Steckler piece in particular because, without Ray, I would never had gotten the hands-on experience of editing and screenwriting that I later used to great satisfaction in the final live-broadcast years of Dumpsterpiece Theatre. I am so thankful that his best films are now available on DVD through Media Blasters and are all highly recommended, in spite of the disrespectful commentary by Joe Bob Briggs. I know he has a reputation to uphold, but if you're gonna make money analyzing a filmmaker's career, Bob, find out what makes him tick first. Would have liked that better..., that's all. Anyway, keep an eye on this space for loads of z-movie fun! |
