Being a kid in the 1980's, my exposure to horror films came after our purchase of a C-Band BUD(Big Ugly Dish). I religiously watched this show every Saturday on TBS, which featured Al Lewis from the Munsters, hosting horror films every Saturday morning. The only drawback of this show was that every other episode was usually a Godzilla movie. However, this program also featured films not seen on TV today, such as the original Willard, or many of the great Hammer horror films that featured Christopher Lee and Peter Cushing. Excellent effort, the forerunner of "Monstervision" on TBS's sister station, TNT. Time Warner and other cable networks strongly need to bring programming of this caliber back to TV.
Four Stars.
