Had that station managed to squeeze Silent Running into their sci-fi Saturday lineup, I might have died from overwhelming happiness.<br />Timnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3893206653438189717.post-3778536005001903152014-07-01T22:02:58.592-04:002014-07-01T22:02:58.592-04:00Tim that sounds like an awesome time.

They were playing Tentacles, Piranha and Orca. When I saw that commercial I thought to myself "Dang I really missed out on not having TBS back then." Now, after reading your post I am thinking the same thing. Anyway, Woody Allen scares me more than the Alien from Alien. Having said that I will now hunt down this film and watch it in a state of terror that only someone as creepy as Woody Allen can make me feel.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3893206653438189717.post-1780220988276152372014-06-26T16:21:21.456-04:002014-06-26T16:21:21.456-04:00I saw it at the drive-in with my parents, probably...I saw it at the drive-in with my parents, probably around 1975.

Beautiful artwork, totally unlike today's synthetic-looking Photoshop crud. I saw Sleeper for the first time on my 14th birthday in 1984. I was spending the summer with my grandparents in Ohio and a local station showed the film that afternoon, followed later that night by a double feature of THX 1138 and Dark Star. For a kid obsessed with cult science-fiction movies it was total bliss.Timnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3893206653438189717.post-90928967391475843802014-06-26T01:11:52.686-04:002014-06-26T01:11:52.686-04:00Robert McGinnis is a national treasure.Robert McGinnis is a national treasure.Marty Runyonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08456700794989273981noreply@blogger.com
