Ghost Of Dragstrip Hollow Movie


I saw this movie on TV back in the 70s.Just came by it by chance.This movie came out the same time I was born,July 1959.The opening scene was filmed on my street at about the same time my parents bought the house that I still live in.If you watch the opening scene,it shows 1 hot-rod car with some teenagers in it chasing another old hot-rod car with kids in it.They are racing up my street and I thought I would see my house when my parents just bought it,but the cut the scene 3 houses before they got to mine!I dont remember the rest of the movie,but I would like to see it again.They also filmed a scene from the first episode of Adam-12 at the end of my street,the Minnow from Gilligans Island was parked in front of CBS studios,which is down the street from me when it went off the air and Tom Hanks used to live across the street from me when he was doing Bosom Buddies.

its one of my favorite movies .Sanita Pelkey was great in that movie.and the famous monster maker Paul Blaisdell was great.and he really did get discarded by the studios after this film.
