@@MichaelBowermaster that’s cool! I looked him up, that would have terrified me as a kid lol. But I bet it was a fun show. I watched a lot of Svengoolie myself.
Hey Karen, happy 2024! So happy to see you covering Kolchak! This is one I was late to the party to find but I really enjoyed it!. Settling in to watch your vid now. But to answer your Q, my earliest horror was pretty much tv broadcasts of Halloween, Exorcist and Friday the 13th. There were also movies like Terminator and Aliens which are not all horror but they had scary parts which grabbed me & kept me hooked. Anyway back to the vid! 😁
Hey Anthony thanks and Happy 2024 to you too! I’m glad you liked the show also. Yah those are classic movies and I enjoy them myself, when did your love for TZ happen?
@@spiritsnscreams Good question! I think my parents were TZ fans and liked many of the classic tv shows, so that would be one show I'd just catch when I was younger. But sometime in my teens or 20's I just always found myself tuning into the marathon. Now of course I am a die-hard Zoner, lol.
Great review Karen! McGavin brought so much to the character - he actually came up with the idea of wearing a rumpled suit that was 10 years out of date. I forgot Larry Linville was in it - great cast all around.
Thanks Dan! Hope you had a nice holiday! Yah I loved Darren McGavin, I didn’t know that about the suit but it made his character for sure. Yes About Larry.. I love finding actors like him as an alternative character than we are used to or when they were younger.. so fun.
I still haven't seen Kojack: The Nightstalker 🤷🏾♀️ 😅Five year old me saw The Invisible Man (1933) horror/sci-fi and I was hooked. The Xfiles was a great show-totally addictive. Millennium was my show back in the day.💜💜💜
Hey Nye, you bc should check it out. Ooh Invisible Man is a good one. Yah I was so bummed when Millennium was cancelled. They filmed episodes of XFiles and Millennium out here. Great shows.
I’ve actually never heard of this show. Definitely have to check it out. Darren McGavin was an amazing actor. Sounds awesome for sure. I can absolutely pin point the movie/experience that turned me into an obsessive horror fan! My brother took me to the movies to see Evil Dead 2 in 1987. I was 5 years old! 😂😂😂 Same age you were when you watched Kolchak. 🤔😃🤘🏻 The experience was insane for me. I was so scared but there were these funny moments that would make my brother laugh, so it would break some of the tension for me. I was head over heels in love with this film! I remember every moment watching that movie. It blew me away and ultimately lead me down an endless path of loving Horror that I’m still on to this day. Can’t thank my brother enough for that experience. Even though I was way too young to see that. 😂 Just one of the many bonding experiences we had.
Hey man, oh wow at 5? I can’t even imagine that but I totally get the fond memories as you got older. Sounds like your brother is a cool dude. I saw the OG Evil Dead at the drive in when I was in my teens and it freaked me out! Lol it’s fun how things flip to a passion. Hope you get a chance to check out Kolchak. Thanks for stopping by!
Hi Karen!! Wow, thanks for that trip back in time. I haven't thought about Kolchak in ages but remember it well. I totally agree with the slow build on creepy. That is the best. You are getting the chills, on the edge of your seat just waiting.... The show I remember watching was Night Gallery. My brother and I would watch it. It was hosted by Rod Sterling. Remember him? I loved that show. I'd say that was when I fell in love with scary shows and movies.
I’ve been meaning to watch this series for years. I’m gonna get to it soon. Great vid! I’ll come back after I watch it. I think The Howling and The Thing and Poltergeist were the first movies that got me obsessed with horror. And the Lawrence welk show lol! I recently watched a great episode of The Outer Limits starring Michael Rooker. Great actor! Btw if u have amazon prime, you have comixology for free. They have great free comics like Night of the Ghoul. Cheers 🎥🎥🎥🎥🎥👍🏻✨✨✨✨
Hey Todd, I hope you like the show. Great movies! I don’t have Prime but I’ll see if I can find comixology and Night Of The Ghoul. How have you been? Did you have a nice holiday?
@@spiritsnscreams Holidays were good. I got a Lenovo tablet. I use the Libby app to read comics from the NYPL. And Lately I’m watching horror movies and shows on Screambox and Tubi and Prime. How have u been?
Hooobbbsss!!! Thank you, yah getting settled into the new day job. But I’ll be dropping vids more now. Still having issues with my livestreams and the dreaded streamyard glitch. So videos it is for now. Hope all is well my friend!
I'm more of a Sci-Fi guy. Vampires are okay, but they are not my favorite monsters. I'm into monsters like The Creature from the Black Lagoon and the xenomorphs in the "Alien" films. My favorite "Kolchak" TV episode is, "They Were, They Are, They Will Be" (about a "visitor" from "out there"). Darren McGavin was (is) a terrific actor. Many thanks, Spirits 'n Screams.
Thanks Walter, well I’m a huge sci-fi fan too and in fact my favourite film is Alien and Aliens, I can never decide which one I like best 🤔 Also the creature is rad!!! I’ll check out that Kolchak episode, not sure I’ve seen it.. so thank you for that. Have a nice evening ✌️✌️✌️
@@spiritsnscreams - Oh yeah, the film which caused a lot of nightmares for me was, "The Night (Curse) of the Demon" (1957). I recall walking home from a friend's after watching the aforementioned film. It was on a mild windy night in early October. I kept watching the tops of the trees which flanked both sides of the country road which I walked along. When I got home, my mother and father asked why I was sweating and slightly short of breath. I told them, "I saw The Devil in a movie." You're welcome. All the best -- W
@@walterfechter8080 I love hearing stories like that, I’ll have to check out that movie. Mine was back in the day watching the OG Evil Dead at the drive in when I was a teen, freaked me out! Nice chatting with you✌️
Love your channel! Kolchak was what I grew up on as well. Friday Night I think was dads card night. When he left I always turned to ABC to see Kolchak Movies and the TV Show. Love and positive vibes to you!!
Thank you so much Seth! Glad you enjoyed this. It was a great show. It’s nice having memories like this that you can reflect on. Same back to you friend 🙏
we recently had a horror remake of the Banana Splits 70's saturday morning show....I want a well done Kolchak Christmas Story mashup holiday comedy/horror film since Darren McGavin was the dad in Christmas Story as well...Ralphie with silver BB's for his bb gun! Kolchak killing a vampire with the leg lamp. Scutt Farkis as a zombie. The kid with his tongue on the frozen flag pole killed cause he cant escape the werewolf, he'd dragged off with only his frozen tongue still attached to the pole
Hello, I agree with you completely. I absolutely loved The Night Stalker. I was 12 in 1972 when it came out. I also got my start in horror movies with my dad. When I was about 7 or 8 he showed me The Cyclops 1957. And it scared the entire shit out of me. He also showed me the original Frankenstein 1931, which also terrified me. But that was just the beginning. I lost my dad in 1972 when I only 12. But by then I knew I loved Horror films. But then in 1973 when I saw The Exorcist, I had never been more terrified in my life. I was traumitized by that movie for years to come. Which brings me to today at 63 and nothing scares me anymore, as far as horror films go. However, if you really liked The Night Stalker, I have a recommdation for you. Check out The Norlis Tape 1973, if you haven't seen it already. It's very similar to The Original Nightstalker.
Thanks so much! I’m sorry to hear about your dad.. it’s rough losing our parents. Ok I haven’t seen The Norlis Tape I’ll be checking that out for sure. Yes Cyclops creepy and omg the OG Exorcist is absolutely terrifying, I felt the same. Thank you for sharing your story✌️
🎃 I was 5 when I saw Kolchack & it had a proofoundimpression.Then Christopher Lee Dracula. You know Kolchack was Big bangs Walkways Mothers first acting job? ❤💀🤠
Your story reminds me a lot of my experience with the original TV movie,although I didn't see the original broadcast (I was 5 at the time too,but my parents wouldn't let me stay up to see it),but I got to see ABC's first rerun of it in late '73 or so,where they ran it on a double feature with SCREAM OF THE WOLF,and it burst my 6 year old brain to bits,so when the series was announced a few months later,I was drooling!I didn't get to see the second Kolchak movie,THE NIGHT STRANGLER until a few months after the series was cancelled. As for what attracted me first to horror,it was a bunch of things.Seeing ads for DARK SHADOWS,as well as seeing the only episode that aired in Buffalo which had a werewolf attacking someone,scared the hell out of me.Most of my early childhood horror was the old American International stuff like Zontar and The Eye Creatures,which I loved and still have a place in my heart for,as crap as they were (all the classic stuff only played the late show at the time,so it was a no go). My older brother usual bought monster magazines and books,so I got to pore over the pics of vampires and werewolves!
Hey Anthony, what’s Scream Of The Wolf?.. I’m intrigued. I’m glad you agree The Nightstalker was scary. Yes.. Dark Shadows that’s a good one! Zontar and The Eye Creatures I haven’t seen so I’m adding them to my watch list. Monster mags and horror mags in general I’m obsessed with too. Thanks for sharing. I love finding new stuff to watch!
@@spiritsnscreams Scream of the Wolf is another Dan Curtis TV movie,with Peter Graves as a former game hunter who comes out of retirement to help track down what is thought to be a wolf killing the locals.Of course,they soon come across evidence that it might be more than a wolf ..
I've wanted to watch Kolchak for the longest time and you've convinced me! :] For me, it was the X-Files that made me start to really like horror, etc. My mum would watch it when I was a kid and I'd sneakily watch from the stairs, haha Then I got to see Dawn of the Dead not long after, and just became obsessed with seeing as many zombie movies as I could! Kolchak kind of reminds me - in its concept -of 'The Night Flier', which is a movie I love. It's perfect nineties horror and probably my favourite of the 'lesser' Stephen King adaptations. Thanks for the great video! :]
You gotta check out Kolchak. Yes XFiles is one of my faves too, I have the I Want To Believe poster 😄🛸👽. And zombies for me too, are you a TWD fan? I have not seen The Night Flier but I am adding it to my list right now.. I gotta check that out. Thanks for sharing with me, so fun!
@@spiritsnscreams I watched the first three episodes of Kolchak and it was great! 🤌 It’s really fun and has great dialogue :) I’ve always wanted Mulder’s poster :O I saw the first season of TWD but then fell behind, and there were so many seasons it’s a bit daunting to catch up now :D but I wouldn’t mind watching it again for sure. The Night Flier is so fun and has a great atmosphere to it, I find! I hope you enjoy it!
Thank you! I’m glad you liked it. You can order the poster on Amazon. It’s cool. Yes TWD is a lot lol. I’m super stoked for the newest spin off The Ones Who Live. It’s coming end of Feb. Really nice chatting with you!
It was a Great guest Star in every episode that lets us know What a great show it was going to be.In Demon & lace...Lily Munster was the school secretary.🎈🤠
Yes that remake/reboot was in 2005/6 with Stewart Townsend and you’re absolutely correct it didn’t fly. And I believe that season came out Supernatural, which was a hit and had a similar feel at the start. Thank you for opening up my memory😊
It was a great show. But I grew up with black and white universal monster movies. And the fifties drive inn sci fi movies. Teenage monster movies with a Japanese Godzilla and company monster movies.
A lot of what you talk about can be credited to the absolute genius of the late, great Dan Curtis. As for what got me into horror was a combination of things. Night Stalker was certainly one, but also Night Gallery and also watching old school horror movies with my mom growing up on Chiler Theater. I always loved scary movies with the devil as a theme. Slasher movies however always left me cold. It got way too overdone. It wasn't scary watching Friday the 13th part 25 or Nightmare on Elm Street part 47. Yawn enducing to me.
@@alangray9117 speaking of Dan Curtis that reminds me I gotta review Burnt Offerings, I’ve been meaning to do that one for awhile now. Well I have to agree about the devil vs. slasher thing. I like slasher films but yes I get really into the devil theme much more. You know back in the day we watched the first Friday the 13th then the second and couldn’t understand why they were making so many more films in the franchise. I get people now diving back into them there’s been enough time for it to be cool and unique but for me I never would have guessed these franchises would have been so popular. Also what was Chiller Theatre sounds fun! I remember Friday Frightmare, loved that one though it ran later I think in the 2000’s. I loved how they had random horror movies late night I think starting at 10pm. Thanks for stopping by🙏🥀🐦⬛
