Wasn't that with Marilyn Chambers, the porn star? If so....yep, it was pretty low rent.

Seeing William Castle movies in the theater was a real treat as a kid. It brings to mind
"The Tingler" where they wired the seats to give people a shock. Never saw that one
in the theater, only on TV.

Didn't they warn potential audiences that if you had a weak heart you shouldn't watch it?
They even offered 'insurance' and some theaters had a hearse sitting in front of the
theater [[presumably to cart off the poor soul that croaked from fear). William Castle
was the master showman in a more innocent time.

Man, I have been a Denise Nicholas fan since "Room 222". I think she and Karen Valentine were my first crushes when I was in the second or third grade.
And to tell you how much I love that flick, about 10 years ago, I saw it for the first time after 20 years and I recited every line as if I was reading the script.
Yes, Jerry....they did remake them and they were horrid. The originals have a charm
of a more innocent time. I own HOHH and 13 Ghosts by Wlliam Castle and pull them
out on occasion for some nostalgia. I believe in the original 13 Ghosts, they handed
out 3-D glasses. Fun stuff, indeed!
There are some really good [[and some really cheesy) 60s Horror movies on Youtube. Here is a very good one.....

Remember when we got that cute little puppy and we had to drag him down the street on his little lease,and one year later that big shaggy mutt was draging you?
That's it! That was the one. I remember we saw it at the AMC Showcase Cinemas in Toledo. It was so gross that more than half of the audience got up and left the theater right in the middle of it.
It was Winter and very cold, so we stand until the bitter end! LOL! BARF!

We had a Samoyed puppy who grew to be quite large. I used to take him for runs in the snow. After he got big, when I took him for runs in the snow, and he'd see an animal to chase, and the hunting instinct took over, he was so strong, I couldn't keep up. He'd forget I had him on a leash. He'd sometimes drag me through the snow for a long way. Lucky those few times the snow was deep, and he didn't pull me into a hidden fallen tree. I might have been gored to death.
My last Rottie was about 10 lb. at birth! LOL! Not quite. He did reach 135 lbs. at
2 years. All muscle. We went through 12 weeks of confirmation training...which was
a godsend. Only a couple of times I got drug down the street...literally. Actually,
the sweetest dog I ever owned.

Today they are called-homeless,but back in the day they were-bums,winos.
Remember when there were not as many car crashes,and nobody wore seatbelts back then.
Yeah. One of my oldest memories is when my dad told me three times to sit down in the front seat. I was between him and my Mom in our '65 Impala [[that I wish I had right now). I stood up a fourth time just as he hit the brakes and discovered [[a) why you shouldn't stand up in the front seat between Mom and Dad, [[b) why seat belts are a godsend, and [[c) my lower lip was no competition for the dashboard of old Chevys.
My lip stayed busted back in those days and that one was a gusher. Suffice it to say, I never stood up in the front seat again.
Remember when there was a bench-style front seat in cars? You could make out in the front seat back in those days without being uncomfortable.
Remember in third grade,the homely girl in glasses who liked you,and by the time she got to the sixth grade she took off the glasses and you couldn't get near her because she was...hot?

Not if you had a Nash Metropolitan. We had a 1948 Studebaker. That long front seat wasn't very long. :cool:
LOL. It doesn't look like it was.

This is the first car I remember as a very young boy. It's also the one that taught me that valuable lesson. I'm going to buy one some day.

Remember those old hearing aids our,relatives wore back in the day? I used to wonder what station they were listening to.

I'm so old I remember ear horns! :cool:

I think that's a US model [[Land Cruiser). We had a Canadian model of The Land Cruiser [[pictured below). It had a small vent window in the back seat, and didn't have the front window separation plate. The grille was different, as well.

This was my first car, a 1967 Cadillac Calais! It was built like a Sherman Tank, so big that I had to drive upon the neighbors yeard across the street just to turn it around! LOL! It used $30 to fill it up in 1984:

Remember when we actually had to carry real books from class to class,and some one would wear one those little pocket things with every kind of pencil and pen invented?
I didn't know any kids with pocket protectors. Our "nerds" were in the audio-visual club and were really nice kids. I remember being in the office once and hearing one of our brainy girls talking smack to one of her buddies about another. Cracked me up to realize that this clique was just as small-minded and petty as every other one in school. Until then, I thought that they were all perfect angels.
Hey! I ran the Bell & Howell projector for our homeroom in the 6th grade! LOL!
