Devil Wolf of Shadow Mountain(1964)
(1/1)
RCMerchant:
OK-Iv'e got a real challange here. I bought an old monster mag from 1964 called MAD MONSTERS #9. Inside is an articale on a very obscure movie titled Devil Wolf of Shadow Mountain. According to the articale,it was produced by a Robert Dietz-president of Prin Productions.The director (who also acts in it) was Gary Kent. The screen writer was Gene Pollock, writer for The Incredibly Strange Creatures Who Stopped Living and Became Mixed Up Zombies and another unknown-to-me film Mad Dog Click and the Head Choppers 3 (!?!). Its set in the old west, with Johnny Cardoz as a werewolf (with very Chaney Jr. type make-up.) Theres a detailed photo-layout of Cardoz having his make-up applied. It also has photos of Gary as the calvery sergant in the film,as well as screenwriter Polluck in role as a cowboy. Now,I know Kent and Cardoz from Al Adamson's movies. What is puzzling me is, I have NEVER seen this film referenced anywhere, ever. Was it ever released? Or did it undergo a title change?Or, by some chance-have any of you SEEN this thing? Another mystery-beneath the photo of Kent it states that he was also the star of (ready?) the INSANE DEMONS of TOPANGA CANYON !!!!! HUH? OK,you mugs-I know can discover something-I have faith!

Not to keep anybody in suspense as to the fate of the film, but it looks like it was never released. Because after doing some of my own checking, I can find no information on the film. Which, in some ways, is too bad. The one thing we do need, is more horror westerns, which I take this film to be.
RCMerchant:
Update: Yeah, thats right,I'm replying to my own post.I v'e looked up the filmography for both Kent and Cardos and nothing even close to what I'm looking for is listed. I DID find out that Mad Dog Click and his Killers 3 is an alternate title for the Thrill Killers. Now I,m obsessed. I WILL SOLVE THIS MYSTERY!

I googled it and the title comes up a couple of sites (including the NY Times), but there is no synopsis anywhere to be found. IMDB is a blank.
I too would be interested in a western horror film.

Well,we still have Curse of the Undead,Billy the Kid vs.Dracula, Jesse James meets Frankenstiens Daughter,and Teenage Monster to fall back on. I tried hard to find IDoTC...no dice.I thought it might be a working title for a biker film.Al Adomson had a habit of giving wild names to cheezy movies,and constantly changing them.
