gary kents "the Pyramid" tonght on TCM

[lester1/2jr]

Chris has all these ideas for uplifting human interest stories that he shoots on company film stock, such as a hog farmer whose land is condemned by the city in order to build a highway through the property, a fakir who walks on hot coals, a group of dancing and chanting female Krishna devotees, spoon-bending psychics and the healing properties of pyramids. Every human interest story Chris pitches or shows the news director (on his way down the ladder from New York) is vehemently rejected.

Meanwhile, reporter L.A. and cameraman Chris travel around town interviewing snooty film actresses, doing pieces on school bus wrecks, car wrecks, haute couture fashion shows ... and watching the city cops shoot and kill at point-blank range two African-American ghetto youth in the midst of a robbery attempt.

I read the link.  Thanks, Lester.  It's on at 2am if anybody's interested.  I don't know the movie. 

THE PYRAMID (1976) is on TCM Underground which is every Friday night (wee hours Saturday morning).

I read an interview with Kent in Psychotronic once. He was a stuntman, notably for jack Nicholson

also just checked and he was in the Mighty Gorga. He is definitely the "Six Degrees of Kevin Bacon" connection there

He was in a lot of Al Adamson movies too. I spoke to him on Facebook! Real nice guy. I asked him about  a never  finished werewolf movie he was in with Bud Cardos! The movie ONCE UPON A TIME IN HOLLYWOOD is based somewhat on those 2 guys!
