This was an episode from Kolchak – The Night Stalker TV series. This series was spun off after the popularity of the Kolchak TV movies, “The Night Stalker” and “The Night Strangler”. Unfortunately, the series was only to last one season. Series star Darren McGavin was involved with the production of the show and after about 5 years of association with the Carl Kolchak role, I think he had had enough and “buried” the burden of Kolchak. Check out the excellent DVD release of all the TV episodes bundled together. “They Have Been, They Are, They Will Be…” deals with [More]
I love this flick. Atmospheric, indeed! An otherworldly craft touches down in the British countryside. Three aliens are variously seen in the shadows. A military unit picks up the craft on radar and begins to search for whatever appeared on the scope. One of the aliens is struck by a car when the fellow tries to dash across a fog enshrouded road at night. He is taken to a hospital where he is looked after. The other two aliens track his whereabouts and put an invisible barrier in place around the hospital. What are the aliens’ intentions? A lot of engaging night time [More]
This picture was made on a small budget and sports some Ray Harryhausen style stop motion animation effects. Pretty good effects at that.

Cool! The unfortunate side effect of the weapon is that it turns the kid into a hideous green- hued monster. The alien owners [More]
This was a cool scene from ” Aliens: The Director’s Cut”. The Colonial Marines stranded on the Alien planet set up robot sentries in the hallways of the complex where they are trying to survive. The sentries detect motion and are programmed to fire upon any intruders tripping the sensors. Needless to say, the ammunition runs out fast as the Marines figure out that they are overrun with deadly Aliens trying every means possible to get to the Marines. Very effective editing and use of sound effects. We don’t ever clearly see the Aliens being blasted into smithereens by [More]
Very mixed bag of items covered photograpically, presumably residing in a super secret NASA vault somewhere. They have their fingers in every pie! Here we see underwater pyramids, moon structures, bits and pieces of ancient technology, super structures half buried, excavated alien spaceships, giant human skeletons uncovered, etc. It appears to me to be wishful thinking. Photo enhancing may be at play.
What the heck? It’s getting nearer to Halloween. Take a look at some of these pictures which all show an abnormal subject!
