Corny movie but fun watched this and Revenge of the Ninja just wish TCM would start their underground earlier around 9 or 10 PM and keep it consistent plus extend it to Saturday's.

I'm a nightowl, but they're often too late for me. Movies I'd like to watch aren't always on TCM Underground but late at night, during the week. Recently, I saw THE NIGHT PORTER was coming on TCM... at 4:30am.

I also had seen THE TEXAS CHAINSAW MASSACRE - yes - was coming on TCM late one night in the last couple of months. Again, too late for me and particularly with that movie! I do not record movies.
I have seen a lot of crap I was delighted to find on TCM Underground like FROM BEYOND a few months ago...

Maybe you're right. TCM (the channel) has screwed around with their scheduling so much it's hard to research what's been on or will be.

True ever since Drew Barrymore and her crowd got involved with it TCM hasn't been worth a s**t.

as a big fan of late 70s/early 80s christopher george movies I'm surprised I'd never seen it

loving the goofiness... reminds me a lot of MASSACRE IN DINOSAUR VALLEY, acting and ridiculousness-wise

Ninja III: The Domination was on last night and I saw maybe 30 minutes; I was laughing! It was so ridiculously implausible, bad, and what the...? I wanted to watch the rest of it, but went to bed around 3.

Yes. We kind of love that crap.

I got a ROKU device for Christmas and between PLUTO TV and the various free movie apps I've downloaded TCM can stick it with their wonky scheduling although they did air Trader Horn and Dark Of The Sun ( thought they banned that one) today.

This was great stuff if you were a bored teenager in the 80s.

Long live the late night circa of my youth when cable was worth having.
