Svengoolie Show Movie: Dr. Cyclops
Svengoolie Intro: “Calling all stations! Clear the air lanes! Clear all air lanes for the big broadcast!” Here’s my deal; I fell asleep last night while watching another TV show on a different channel, “The UnXplained” hosted by William Shatner (Shat’s in the house and he’s 95 years old!) before the movie Dr. Cyclops came…

Sven Squad Movie: Rosemary’s Baby
We watched Rosemary’s Baby last night on the MeTV channel and this was the first time we’ve seen this 1968 film directed by Roman Polanski and starring Mia Farrow as Rosemary Woodhouse and John Cassavetes as Guy Woodhouse. I’m not sure what the business was with Flip Wilson playing Geraldine Jones who jumped into several…

Svengoolie Show Movie: “First Men in the Moon”
Svengoolie Intro: “Calling all stations! Clear the air lanes! Clear all air lanes for the big broadcast!” I thought the 1964 film, “First Men in the Mood” was a hoot, mostly because of the antics of Joseph Cavor (Lionel Jeffries), who could yell incessantly “Briggs!” more than a dozen times, at the guy who was…

Svengoolie Show Movie: “Frankenstein and the Monster from Hell”
Svengoolie Intro: “Calling all stations! Clear the air lanes! Clear all air lanes for the big broadcast!” His brain came from Moe. His soul came from Larry. His hair came from Curly Joe.

Svengoolie Intro: “Calling all stations! Clear the air lanes! Clear all air lanes for the big broadcast!” Will the real monster please stand up?

Sven Squad Movie: “Parents”
Svengoolie Intro: “Calling all stations! Clear the air lanes! Clear all air lanes for the big broadcast!” OK, so this movie, “Parents” is hosted by the Sven Squad, who did a pretty good job of covering this dark 1989 film directed by Bob Balaban, set in the 1950s California suburbia. The main cast included Randy…

Svengoolie Show Movie: “The Car”
Svengoolie Intro: “Calling all stations! Clear the air lanes! Clear all air lanes for the big broadcast!” We’ve never seen the 1977 movie “The Car” and it’s spooky because that’s the year Sena and I got married and only a few years later we got a big 1980s vintage Chrysler New Yorker that had an…

Svengoolie Movie: “An American Werewolf in London”
Svengoolie Intro: “Calling all stations! Clear the air lanes! Clear all air lanes for the big broadcast!” Let me get this off my chest first. Sena and I watched the Svengoolie show the 1981 movie, “An American Werewolf in London” directed by John Landis last night and neither of us remember hearing Sam Cooke’s version…

Svengoolie Show Movie: “House on Haunted Hill”
Svengoolie Intro: “Calling all stations! Clear the air lanes! Clear all air lanes for the big broadcast!” Right after Sena and finished the marathon Cribbage Rumble game last night, we watched the Svengoolie show 1959 movie, “House on Haunted Hill,” just like she said during the video. We’ve never seen the movie before, but Sena…

Svengoolie Show Movie: “The Mummy’s Hand” and Svengoolie Cameo
Svengoolie Intro: “Calling all stations! Clear the air lanes! Clear all air lanes for the big broadcast!” OK, I saw this movie The Mummy’s Hand (1940) last night and went to bed wondering if I was crazy or fell asleep briefly and had a dream during the show. I saw something incredible; it looked like…
