ESR 203 - Hidden Gems - Part 1

On this episode of The Eclectic Screening Room, I get to exercise the part of the job that I love the most: where I can say, "Hey, look what I found." When going through the vaults and deciding upon titles to screen, sometimes you come across a hidden gem that you just fall in love with and want to share with the rest of the viewers. That's tonight's picture- an action-adventure film full of double-crosses, intrigue, great stunts, humour, and even a great musical store. This is a great Friday ...

ESR 202 - Italian Muscleman Night! - Part 1

Tonight we present some Italian muscleman action with Gordon Scott in "Samson and the Seven Miracles". The novelty of this one is that it is set in 13th century China instead of ancient Greece or Rome, as Samson saves the peaceful Tibetan monks from the marauding Mongols. SEE: Samson wrestle tiger rugs! SEE: Samson throw foam rubber props! But seriously, this is a good movie-- grab some snack food, a favorite cocktail and enjoy! Choppy playback?

ESR 201 - Back To School Special - Part 1

Since this is back to school week, we thought it was appropriate to devote the first episode of our new season to misspent youth. Our main feature tonight is the 1957 film "Teenage Thunder". Poor young Johnny wants a car, but his dad won't give him one. Further adding insult to injury, his girlfriend has to drive him around, and he gets picked on by the gang in the local malt shop. What does Johnny do? This movie is a lot of fun, and has its share of rumbles and hot rod racing, so common to te...
