June 29, 1968 Schedule: "The Indestructible Man" and "The Outer Limits" 11:30pm

Bob Wilkins shows a LON CHANEY, JR turkey, THE INDESTRUCTIBLE MAN. It is a poor man's version of UNIVERSAL'S much better MAN MADE MONSTER. This movie was released by ALLIED ARTISTS in 1955. Since it is in the public domain, it is available on many DVD labels with presentations ranging from BAD to WORSE! The best version is available on DVD by RETROMEDIA, but it is still far from best. WARNER currently owns the ALLIED ARTISTS FILM LIBRARY. Here's hoping they will release a better looking version! Bob Wilkins also shows an episode of THE OUTER LIMITS!

May 25, 1968 Schedule: "Samson Vs The Vampire Women" and "The Outer Limits" 11:30PM

The movie is about a piano made from skulls and bones that has the power to destroy ampires. It was released on DVD in a very inferior copy by BEVERLY WILSHIRE back in 2000. Definately in need of an upgrade. I saw the Spanish Language Version on GALAVISION several years ago. Bob also showed an episode of THE OUTER LIMITS.

UPDATE TO COMPUTER PROBLEMS!

I need to apologize to everyone concerning this blog. My computer bit the dust, and now I am borrowing my nephew's laptop to do this blog. It is only a temporary situation. I finally bought a affordable computer from (of all place), QVC home shopping. I hope to get my new computer within the next 2 weeks. For now, my blogs won't be on time and there will nt be any photos for now. Hopefully I will rectify this later. I hope to add photos to my previous blog at a later time. Thanks to all for my barebones blog posts.

RASPUTIN MUSIC AND MOVIES: ONE YEAR ANNIVERSARY IN STOCKTON, CALIFORNIA!!!

Exactly one year ago on this day, Berkeley based RASPUTIN MUSIC AND MOVIES opened up a location in Stockton in the former TOWER RECORDS location at 6623 Pacific Avenue. While I miss TOWER RECORDS/VIDEO/BOOKS, RASPUTIN'S is a step up from TOWER. RASPUTIN has an EXCELLENT selection of DVD'S, VHS and LASERDISCS. It is the best thing to come to Stockton in a LLLOOONNNGGG TIME! Plus the fact, I don't have to travel to the Bay Area to these type of stores. RASPUTIN has an excellent selection of genre DVD's(Horror, Sci-Fi and Cult) for an affordable price! RASPUTIN replacing TOWER is like replacing your old beat up VW Bug with a Brand New Corvette!!
