Back in the late ‘70s we got our Star Wars fix any way we could get it- no matter the source. So if sitting through an episode of the Donnie and Marie variety show on September 23rd, 1977 was the only way I could again see Chewbacca, the droids and stormtroopers than so be it.

"HORROR!"
That's what's on #Svengoolie tonight!
The horror of 1957's "Curse of the Demon" on @MeTV.
It's essentially a psychological thriller where the titular creature is seen only twice but, WOW, what a creature to see!

AVON, 1986
Is AVON still around? If so, how about the local Avon Lady?

The box art for the 8mm version of “Earth versus the Spider” aka “The Spider” is one of the best imo. #svengoolie

I love the Burroughs-esque concept of a hidden primordial world in modern day Antarctica, the Savage Land. Hope that Disney someday brings this into the MCU.
