Tamblyn:
Right. And there was this rock n' roll group, Devo - I don't know if you could call them rock. When I first met them, their lead singer Mark Mothersbaugh came up to me and said, "Oh my god, you did one of my favorite movies of all time." So I'm waiting for him to say WEST SIDE STORY, SEVEN BRIDES, or THE HAUNTING or whatever, and he said, "WAR OF THE GARGANTUAS." I thought he was putting me on, that he was kidding me. But he went on about the movie, and not only that, he said, "Listen to this,"... he had gone into a theater with a tape recorder and taped that silly song in the movie that's called...
EVERYONE IN UNISON: "The Words Get Stuck in My Throat" [the actual title is "Feel in My Heart"]
Now that was funny! It was nice to hear that he was appreciative that WOTG has it's share of fans and that even attended the screening. Even Raquel Welch to this day, would probably not want to see a screening of "One Million Years B.C." despite the fame it brought her. And for years, I always assumed that lines like "they were probably on a bad LSD trip" and "maybe he fell in love with a whale" where his very own lines. Now we see that they were.
The only other thing I was hoping to hear was that of his very own ghostly encounter when he was shooting "The Haunting", but that would have drifted from the WOTG talk.
