[klen7]

this is a good thread, there are always some hidden gems on TCM

[lhb412]

Italian neo-realist movies one night, and Godzilla the following morning.

TCM: we just really like movies and we're gonna show whatever the hell we want!

[Gwangi]

Not sure if it is just me, but for some reason, TCM always shows 'Sinbad and the Eye of the Tiger" during the Easter season. I will keep tabs next year.

It's the ultimate Easter flick, donthchaknow?

[klen7]

Just finished "The Land That Time Forgot"... boy was that film due for a revisit. I had forgotten how high the causality count is in that movie.

[lhb412]

TCM showed bizarre Japanese cult flick Kurotakage last night.

Further proof that's they're awesome.

[The Real McCoy]

I think they could have made a few better choices, but hey, those are pretty good ones anyway. It kind of looks like they were trying to stray from the most popular and going with the less-watched/more obscure of his movies.

Battle in Outer Space on Saturday, Sept. 7

[Shin_Edda_Robo!!!!!]

Interesting. No Columbia Logo, the Toho Logo, Japanese text intact, but the American dub.

I wonder what else is in this print.

Oh...my...poor dvr!

^Vincent Price is the star of the month, and they'll be showing a whole lot of his non-horror films, too. Nice write-up for him here:

http://www.tcm.com/this-month/article/702274|0/Robert-Osborne-on-Vincent-Price.html

[MekaGojira3k]

I'll try to tune into the Hammer stuff as per usual.

[Destroysall]

Oh TCM, how I love thee.

[lhb412]

I could kick myself for missing Godzilla King of the Monsters! on TCM a month or so ago. It was a part of the Essentials Jr. series they have every summer, meant to introduce classic films to young folks. I'd have liked to see Bill Hader's into and outro for it.

A clip of Godzilla has been part of the promo for the series all summer and the classic KOTM poster is prominently displayed on this year's set right over Hader's shoulder.

There's a channel on YouTube that archives TCM host segments, so you're in luck.

Usually they reserve a certain day of the week for showing horror films throughout October, but it seems this year they're clustering it all on the week of.

I don't like that as much, but I'll take what I can get. I can't watch classic horror on AMC anymore...so...(Haven't been able to since, what? early early 2000s?)

[lhb412]

Was looking for the Chaney Sr. Phantom of the Opera up there (still haven't seen it), and it isn't a part of their Halloween programming. Turns out it's actually on next Monday, Sept the 22nd.

... and speaking of silent movies; as someone who really wants to catch up on silent cinema I'm looking forward to November, which will showcase many of the most well known silents every Monday.
