     I missed CORPSE GRINDERS and SNUFF.
If it's true what they say, that GOD created us in His image, then why should we not love creating, and why should we not continue to do so, as carefully and ethically as we can, on whatever scale we're capable of?

     The choice is simple; refuse to create, and refuse to grow, or build, with care and love.

.It's got Famous Monsters editor Forry Ackerman!
.It's got some of the most inane dialouge since John Carradine mad doctor babble in ASTRO ZOMBIES!

I first saw it on TV in 1972-on a uhf channel-it was that or baseball. I had already bought the Famous Monsters mag with the s**tty Dracula on the cover....UGH! I didnt appreciate Bad movies then. I was horrified.

I remember when this first premiered on WPIX 11's Chiller Theater around 1972 or so...I wanted to stay home and watch it that night but my parents has a local youth group (mid to late teens) and we went to a hambuger joint for what were the worst I ever had. 

But, I managed to catch it later thru the years and late night or UHF are perfect for it. I have the DVD too! 

A little bit of information: At the one east coast Chiller Theater I attended about 7 or 8 years ago, my cousin and I were talking to Sam Sherman, one time friend of the late director Al Adamson.  Sam said that originally, he and Adamson wanted to get Frances Lederer of The Return Of Dracula fame to be Dracula, but he wanted too much money. That would have been really cool if they could have gotten him!

I remember seeing the DRIVE-IN MASSACRE video box for a long time, and it looked like it could be  a guilty pleasure.. wow, boring (but with one or two awesome kills).  The ending is the single biggest cheat I've ever seen.
"O the legend they say, on a Valentine's Day, is a curse that'll live on and on.."

I've seen that movie but I don't remember anything about it other than it being boring. 

Was that the movie that ended saying that the killer was still on the lose and might be coming to your drive-in next?

One of the most boring slasher movies ever-a shmuck with a sword at a drive-in-the murders were so dark lite and anti climatic-watching someone eat a sandwhich was more interesting.
Supernatural?...perhaps. Baloney?...Perhaps not!" Bela Lugosi-the BLACK CAT (1934)
Interviewer-"Does Dracula ever end for you?
Lugosi-"No. Dracula-never ends."
