How did i not know this film existed!?


Where else in cinema can you find a film that combines Robert Vaughn, Donald Pleasence, John Carradine, Arnold Vosloo, William Butler (Of NOTLD 1990) Nia Long, and Porn Star Ginger Lynn Allen?

It's like some weird rip in space and time, or at the very least, something out of the Twilight Zone.

I'm only 15 minutes in, and I don't give a sh*t if it sucks. All that matters is that you'd never be able to combine the likes of Legends Vaughn, Pleasence, and Carradine with Ginger Lynn ever again.

I love to love my Lisa.

I just watched it and was thinking the same thing.

I'm like Robert Vaughn is killing Donald Pleasence! That is entirely cool stuff.

are we talking about the original twilight zone series from the 1950's? i must have missed something, i wondered how they got actors like pleasence (looking like henry bemis in the twilight zone by the way) and vaughn to appear in this, but i know they were in alot of turkeys during this period, so a great cast in terrible movies like this is not unique and i think you've got alot more to find, one that comes to mind is "without warning" (1980) with the likes of jack palance, martin landau and neville brand, all actors from different twilight zone pieces. this almost lacks any kind of a dialogue, what a mess of a movie, just gore and weird camera shots (i've noticed later imitations of twilight zone is really heavy on weird camera shots so i thought perhaps you referred to a later twilight zone version), to think what has happened to horror movies since the 1930's, to quote "bela lugosi" in ed wood (1994), "they had the mystery to them, today (1950) its all about giant bugs." but the other movie on the double feature where i got this makes this look classy... strange product placements in both, like in this when someone at a meeting suddenly breaks open a potato chip bag, makes me think of the wayne's world gag. i know another movie with the same title as this with a fella named goodman and the great tagline "buried alive, they thought they got rid of mr goodman, but you can't keep a good man down."



come wander with me,
as the sun goes down over the green hill,
i was ready to quit the journey,
when with a new year you greet,
come wander with me,
in the twilight the darlin of my dream,
i was left on my own saw no reason to walk on,
tagged in as once again filled my heart with song,
feed my spirit make my journey rich,
come wander with me.
