Great upload - I loved Cox insights and introductions. Along with Alexander Walker my first introduction cinema critique and that there was more than meets the eye in so much of 70s cinema. A standout memory was the remake of Invasion of the Body Snatchers pointing out that the omnipresent Transamerica building.
Geek nostalgia overload, thanks pal. Edit, This is spectacular, I remember watching these live. There is a lot to be said for the value of scheduled TV.
@@VideoTasties thanks very much I used to love Dr Terror too. Friday nights. I wish they would bring back curation again. Just looking at your channel, we'd be on the same frequency for films etc. I used to love the cannon stuff too, well some ha. I loved Orion pictures, talk about quality stuff. Robocop, the Terminator, some of Johnathan Demmes movies.
Cox was a big proponent of Goddard. I probably view Cox as a quintessential auteur filmmaker. I was never a fan of Repo Man or Straight to Hell. Probably Cox's best attempts were Sid & Nancy and the greatly undervalued The Highway Patrolman, which deserves a solid 4K transfer for the UK market, even though Kino in the states released the film on Blu. Maybe Indicator could get The Highway Patrolman released.
@@VideoTasties ILC video released Highway Patrolman on DVD in the UK. But it does go for slightly more money now. I bought a copy when it came out on DVD in the early 00s.

Thanks, he was one I watched regularly
I love Cox's facial expression on the avatar to this upload.😁
This takes me back! I remember most of these. My first experience of cult cinema.
@@Emulous79 same here

Couldn't agree more!

@@tcehaus2600 yes he was great
*uckin’ Christmas. Thanks again for your hard work and VHS crusade, preserving this fabulous series by such a unique director/film critique.
@@zacetto thanks 👍
@@VideoTasties
No…..
Thank YOU!!😎
16:00 Cox is SO wrong about “The Duellists” it’s an exquisite and beautiful film.
@@TheGava4 he may have changed his mind since
It sure is.

That's why I couldn't find a copy of highway patrolman before the interview

Love the upload, but watching them back but Cox does come across as a pompous a-hole sometimes.
a little, lol
Opinionated maybe, but that was what made Moviedrome so great for me. You just can't be that honest on TV anymore.
He sure does.
Wait to see you the bloke they replaced him with.
