Busy posting my own comment and missed yours; got that song playing over and over in my head now. Haven’t seen RHPS in ages; weekly veteran of the Sena Mall showing in Metairie, just outside of New Orleans.
Weekly RHPS veteran @... Parkade Cinemas, Manchester CT (1981-1985); ready to throw toast at (and scream at) the screen.
Best one-liner:
During the teaser trailer to John Carpenters ‘The Thing’
Narrator: “100,000 years ago, something crash landed on our planet..” huge spaceship flys by screen
{I SCREAM}”Oh look!! It’s Ronald Regan!”
Love this movie; watch it at least once a year. I hear there’s a remake in the works (actually surprised it took this long); here’s hoping they don’t fuck it up.
Many have seen the parallels with “STAR TREK”. A great double-feature (picture show…) is to watch this along with “THE CAGE”, the original STAR TREK pilot with Jeffrey Hunter.
I was scrolling through quick and I swear, I thought Leslie Neilsen there was Nathon Fillion.
If it weren’t a risk of typecasting, they should get him to play John J. Adams in the movie. Of course, that’s only if it doesn’t conflict with Warner Bros/DC/whoever having a freaking clue and casting him as Hal Jordan…
Leslie Neilsen & Anne Francis
“.. at the late night, double feature, picture show –
in the back row (Yeah back row!!)”

Great movie.
In an age where scifi was still trying to find its wings, this movie helped a bit.

Nathan Fillion FTW
Awesome Movie. I think its the first sci-fi one to use an Hyperdrive… and Anne Francis is HOT!!!
