I posted the movie herald and now here’s the pressbook for Chick Carter, Detective: son of Nick Carter, detective. Dailymotion has episodes of the movie online. Julie Gibson (who played Sherry Marvin) also appeared with the Bowery Boys and the Three Stooges. Wikipedia states she’s the oldest living performer from Hollywood’s Golden Age.

Here's the nifty movie herald for Chick Carter, Detective, a Columbia Pictures serial. He's the son of Nick Carter, detective, which MGM did a movie serial on. Sadly, no other movie company followed up with the rest of the family.

Like Freaks, Peeping Tom didn't get a good reception when first released and it pretty much killed its director's career; but time and reconsideration now rate it very highly. If you're a slasher film fan and haven't seen this movie, well then, you're not really a slasher film fan.

A 15 episode serial from Columbia Pictures, Perils of the Wilderness was released when serials were on the wane, sadly. See this review for it at The Files of Jerry Blake. The serial format should be revived for movie theaters. I'm sure there's a variation of it that will work well with today's audiences. When you think of it, the format simply just moved over to television for many shows.

By issue 3 of Marvel's Monster Madness, it looks like the editors realized a magazine solely comprised of funny photos was no longer enough. Monsterkids, nurtured on Famous Monsters of Filmland, were growing up: they needed more meat on those monster bones to gnaw on. In this issue, aside from the many two-page photo spreads, you'll find articles on movie reviews, the Creature from the Black Lagoon as the Monster of the Month, the Fear-Fables of Robert Block, and Marvel's Werewolf by Night. Unfortunately, this would be the last issue, but Marvel would soon bring forth Monsters of the Movies to the crowded newsstands and spinner racks.

Here's another good viewing choice for Halloween. The beatnik culture vibe is so straight from the fridge, dad!
Lost in Space's (the television series) Guy Williams stars. The script was pared down to lower the budget. Unfortunately, Ray Harryhausen was not involved and the film was shot in Germany. Yes, Germany. I haven't seen this one yet, so I'll leave it at that. But the pressbook is great.
