This is a drive-in trip I'd have loved to take in '78! A triple bill re-release of
John Dark/Kevin Connor science fiction adventures from American-International Pictures:
The Land That Time Forgot (1975),
The People That Time Forgot (1977) and
At The Earth's Core (1976) - all starring the indomitable
Doug McClure!
Sorry posting has been so light the last few days, but I've been fighting the flu, and the battle's been wiping me out. I think I've got the bug on the ropes now, so, with a little luck, I'll be back up to form - and posting regularly - again soon. Stay tuned, Star Kids!
I dunno... seems like a recipe for a McClure overdose to me.
ReplyDelete"What happened?"
"Christopher OD'd! He over-Douged!"
Susan Penhaligon, Sarah Douglas and Dana Gillespie, Caroline Munro! A quadruple feature!
ReplyDeleteLove these movies! I got the Land/People DVD and then opted for the UK-released Doug McClure Fantasy Adventure Triple Bill DVD boxset. It includes Land that.../Warlords of Atlantis/and At the Earth's Core. Fun stuff! Thanks for the blog, I love it. Looking forward to a print version (?) of Perils on Planet X eventually.
ReplyDeleteHope you're feeling better, Chris.
ReplyDelete"Land" is still my favorite of these three. Just add "Warlords of Atlantis" to the mix and you'd have all four McClure movies. Doug McClure simply showed up for a paycheck in "People" and his appearance always reminds me of Charlton Heston popping up in "Beneath the Planet of the Apes." Very brief.
ReplyDeleteRegarding People... as I always say, "Some McClure is better than no McClure!"
