any one remember a movie called laserblast.how about shockwaves?
poster below: "Haunts of the Very Rich" may be on VHS only. Search e-Bay.
I am looking to buy a very old one for the movies of the week Call "Haunts of The Very Rich" Starring Ed Asner and Cloris Leachman...any ideas where I cuold find this?
Angie, I'm not sure if this is right or not but reading your description of that old movie made me think of "Black Noon" (1971) with Roy Thinnes and Yvette Mimieux.

WereWolf of Woodstock was an ABC Wide World Mystery, broadcast at 11:30, on Friday Nights in 1973 / 1974. Not a movie of the week!
"Maybe I'll Come Home in the Spring" and "That Certain Summer" - I had a crush on Sally Field, and the latter gave me the creeps - I think it was when Scott Jacoby found the engraved watch his father (Hal Holbrook) received from Martin Sheen's character(though I live in SF now, go figure)...
Hi, does anyone remember a MOTW about a husband and wife, the wife at some point was reliving inperson the exicution of a witch by the placing of a large wooden plank(maybe a door)on top of her with heavy stones placed on the wood.At the end of the movie, the husband was dead, but she and her son were in the present. A policeman on horseback came up to mom and boy, and offered to tie the son's shoes. Mom recalled that her late husband tied laces/bows the same way. I am not sure if I am mixing Crowhaven Farm and another movie.
Gene,

I realize this may be a bit late, but
"kult-video" currently offers a great
copy of "Short Walk to Daylight" on DVD
(as well as many other interesting titles) for just $9.99 on IOFFER.COM.
Many other sellers there have items of similar interest.

Also, if you search the web a bit, there are now sites out there that specialize in offering tv and movie titles long out of print (or those never officially released on VHS or DVD in the first place).

Finally, as many others here point out, eBay is a great place to find some of the titles you are looking for.

Good Luck!
This may be a little late, but to respond to Kelly's question about the Susan Dey movie, it was called "Cage Without A Key."
Oh gawd, I LOVED those films...complete and utter cheesefests, and that's what made them so great... they're just another one of those good ol' Seventies mind-warps that we'll never get to see the likes of again. With movies like these, is it any wonder that that decade is experiencing a resurgence in popularity? Somebody should do a complete DVD collection of these ABC "Movie of the Week" horror flicks, I'm dead serious; they'd make a fortune. I'd be one of the first to buy it. Watching those films late at night (back when you were an age where 'late at night' was 10 o'clock) was awesome[/i. I really miss 'em. TV has not been as good since.
I'm so glad to see I didn't imagine these movies! I clearly remember Home For The Holidays, Haunts of the Very Rich, Scream Pretty Peggy, Don't Be Afraid of the Dark, etc. Does anyone remember Satan's School For Girls w/Kate Jackson? Or A Taste of Evil w/ Barbara Parkins & Barbara Stanwyck? I just bought a copy of Crowhaven Farm w/ Hope Lange on DVD on Ebay. I'm constantly looking for copies of these movies and Ebay seems to have quite a few of them.
Hello
I've just registered at the forum. This is my first message.
Please don't become angry about me.
Thank you.
The movie about the cat was called "JT" and starred Kevin Hooks...I think it was orginally shown on CBS
Anyone remember a film from the mid-seventies about a little black boy in the ghetto who befriends a cat? And everyday after school he hangs with this little black and white cat. And one day he comes home from school but can't find the cat, he finds him dead in an abandoned refrigerator in courtyard. Anyone know the film? I don't know if it was the afterschool special, or the movie of the week. Can anyone help?
I have loved those old movies. I think that was a very speicl time for the MOTW...In my opinion it's very difficult to find anything like that on tv today. OK, so many were kinda 'koky', but looking back (with fond memories) it was a treat to see films like: Pray for The Wildcats, Love, Hate Love, Smashup on Interstate 5 and A Howling in the woods. Should anyone want to find some of those gems, just drop me a line.
