I find these 70's shows much better than what we're offered today. Something special about the way they were filmed. Great film. Thank you for posting it.
Most US series up until the 90s were shot on Cinema quality black and white or colour 35mm film. This is why classic series up to that time like The Outer Limits (1963), Rawhide, The Big Valley (1968), Dallas, Columbo (1970s), Star Trek (1960s) and many many others, like this series, can still look amazing today. Sadly quality deteriorated starting in the 90s when video tape was used instead. This accounts for the terrible picture quality of ALL the Star Trek spin-offs, Buffy the Vampire Slayer, The X Files, Xena Warrior Princess, Dr Quinn, The Outer Limits (1995), Twin Peaks, and many others, including the last one or two series of the wonderful Dallas, which then became unwatchable.
@@keithnaylor1981 Every decade has it's good quality films along with thousands of lesser quality and many dustbin (Trashcan) grade. There are some great quality films in this present era. But you have to find them among the myrride of low quality. But one thing is. You likly will not be finding the top grade on UA-cam.
They didn't have to worry about everyone getting their sissy feelings hurt. So they were able to make actual realistic movies and shows. I mean look at Archie Bunker, that sure as hell wouldn't be allowed on tv today! Good times!
I was born in 1980 and never saw these as a kid. I’m so glad to have finally discovered them. 70s horror is top notch and actually very comforting but creepy at the same time. The house in this one is awesome!
I was a teenager in the late 70's,, it was the greatest time of my life,, i had 1977 Rally Sport Camero with a V-8 that was hard to beat,, my girlfriend had 1977 Chevrolet Monte Carlo, & it had a big back seat,, man those days were magic..,, I'd give anything to go back in time again...
Wouldn't it be great? And the bands were great too! Have to admit, I was born in 63 but I had 3 much older siblings and I lived vicariously through them lol!
@@karenfields-sb4cqMy boyfriend has a 65 mustang now. He had a 64 1/2 but he wrecked it. He also has a nice restored 72 Roadrunner. I think it's a 72. And a few 70s Broncos. Oh and a capri because that was his first car and he found one just like it. He always is getting old cars. He will sit all night long scanning Craigslist. It's the only thing he knows how to use on the computer. He's just an old rancher. Loves his muscle cars.
What a blast from the past! This show was fascinating to me as a child. I enjoy hearing the music which was such a huge part of the 1970's. That was a cool decade to be a kid and a teen in late 70's. Loved it. :)
I agree" the 70s was a great time to grow up in, I enjoyed all my teenage years and the cool movies so sad we can't have them back. These movies help us to get back some of those memories.
This is so much fun watching these old shows. When they aired in the 70's I was too young to fully understand them. Thank you so much. Truly a treat. ❤
I'm from Kensington and Chelsea; in London. USA 🇺🇸 sent these to 🇬🇧 so I also have nice memories. One thing I've noticed that back then; our accents were similar. What happened? 🇬🇧🤝🇺🇸
You know? Your right. I’m from Oklahoma, so you can imagine my accent. I think people now a days are lazier and take way too many things for granted. We were lucky to have grown up when we did. Cheers! As you folks say.
I've wondered about that. My own older brother spoke with an apparent English accent, for no apparent reason. We had Irish & Welsh ancestors but way before we were born. We spoke Midwestern
Then, that would be a money pit, if it really was very old. They only appear to be in a good order, but if you live in one, then you realise how much does it cost to live there and how much work that requires. So, hope your wishes don't come true 😂
I remember watching these as a kid. My sisters and I would watch on a small black and white TV set when our parents were in another room. Thanks for the upload and the great memories. Cheers.
Fun Fact : the couple of the castle were Actually real lovers for years until her death. The man said they were deeply in love. Rip Torn who played in Men In Black.
Excellent episode! I love the nostalgia of the show and how the story so eerily transcends through time. I miss this type of storytelling. There wasn’t a need for blood, gore or explicit sex scenes… Just good old-fashioned storytelling acted-out via a great cast, a great set/location and a great soundtrack! The sound is so crucial. If only we could go back in time. It’s funny to think I wasn’t even born yet, not for several more years, when I watch these great old shows from the early 70’s! Life is strange. Thank you for sharing this little blast to the past. 🌹📺🌹
Tales From Tomorrow Outer Limits Boris Karloff Thriller Amazing Stories Night Gallery Tales From the Darkside Twilight Zone Ghost Stories 1997 Friday the 13th ( television series) Monsters
I like all these suspense but creepy shows, not dirty or nudity, or filthy language. that is not acting, i love these actors and actresses that can act, not all the filth they have today, hopefully they will keep playing wholesome movies like this.
Page was one of the greatest actresses this country ever produced. Her three Night Gallery episodes are the best of that series. She's also excellent as the homicidal Mrs Marrable in Whatever Happened to Aunt Alice?
Steve Price oh my goodness I was born in 65, your comment made me realise....oh no!!!!!! I’m 55 this year! Like many, as a little kid I’d creep out to the hall when I was supposed to be in bed asleep, just to sneak a peek at one of these classic episodes from Winston Essex (the wonderful Sebastian Cabot , with deep respect RIP), Tales of the Unexpected or my ALL TIME FAVOURITE horror series “Kolchak, The Night Stalker” - Darrin MsGavin was just so memorable!
Some of the best thriller/horror anthology series back then featured a classy gentleman host like, Winston Essex, Rod Serling, Boris Karloff, and Alfred Hitchcock. ✨Night Gallery, hosted by Rod Serling was my favorite.
Oh how real everything has become these days in shows and movies. They leave nothing to the imagination. I look back on these 70s shows and they seem so silly but, years from now, they'll be saying how todays shows are silly. I'm really enjoying these old shows! Definitely a blast from my past! No cell phones to call for help then! 😊👍📺📽
This is when scary shows were actually kinda scary! Wow! I was like probably 9 yrs old. Used to watch this on Friday nights, and Circle of Fear and Night Gallery! Mom let us stay up late to watch these. Probably she was too scared to watch alone since my dad was always at sea or some other Navy excursion.
Really good episode. Love Geraldine Page. She was great in her later years in some horror film/TV roles. I especially loved her in Dear Heart, with Glenn Ford, and in the terrific Sweet Bird of Youth, with Paul Newman. 💎❤️
I can't understand why there are so many negative comments about Lynn Loring's manner and appearance. She's totally mesmerising and stunningly beautiful here.
The 1970s were a great time for television produced horror tales . From tv series like Night Gallery and Ghost Story / Circle of Fear to made for tv movies
Would be nice if the television industry produced quality horror shows like this now. Everything is so over the top, such as American Horror Story. Trying too hard to shock. Characters unlikable.
I remember when Night Gallery shown a woman who had lost in the rain, and couldn't find her way back She met a man, and his wife with a machine who could help her find her way back It looked like a primitive GPS the man, was her BABY SON They were into GPS then, but didn't have the satellites
And there are hundreds of channels now and nothing worth watching. I wouldn't have current TV in my home anymore; it's all toxic garbage as far as I can see.
Couldn’t imagine sweet old Ms. Page strangling anyone. Rather contrived scene and timing with the rescuer appearing right then behind that unused doorway to discover the trapped woman. Just hokey on so many levels. Gothic horror is tough to do just right in any case.
I had watched the series in Jade Channel of TVB when I was a P5 pupil in 1973-1974 , it made me nearly falling in a state of scariness the whole year .
I love that song they are singing, it's beautiful. I think Geraldine Page is beautiful and such an amazing actress, her husband Rip is a good actor as well. I enjoyed this episode, except for the maniacal screaming😣
The song "Golden Memories" from this episode has now been expanded from the original by Ian Jack and recorded by Australian band Bone Halo. Release date is 26 February 2017 and it will be available on iTunes, Amazon, Spotify and Google Music from that date.
The biggest mistake of this series was giving Sebastian Cabot an Alias. He was such an enormous star in 1972, they could have had him introduce the episodes as himself and it would have landed a touch of class as it did with Boris Karloff on "Thriller" or Rod Serling on "Night Gallery". The whole Winston Essex thing is just silly Possibly one of Bill Castles ideas.
I remember this show as a child. I thought they were good. First time I started watching them again just a week ago. They were really good. a lot of big names also. RIP RIP TORN.. ironic his name.. his last name really was TORN. He passed July of 2019
SPOILER . . . . . . . . I liked the ending. The Sheriff came to arrest them for the old murders but he did it delicately because he’d known them for years and they were loony.
@BrooklynGirl. I realize that this is definitely an older series, but as this may be a 1st viewing for some, would you PLEASE, please be so kind as to put Spoiler Alert before you comment on the ending. I have seen it, but some haven't and may see the comments before they manage to enlarge the screen, thus obscuring the comment section. It only takes a sec to do. Thanking you in advance. Have a lovely evening!
Thank you! I watched the ending twice and thought it was odd. Why didn't he say "Sit down? No thanks, but they'll have plenty of seating where you're headed!" I half expected the twist ending to be that the sheriff and both of the caretakers were all ghosts or something we didn't see coming. Anyhow, thanks for clarifying what that ending was about.
Only way I could watch this as a kid was if we were visiting another house. If all the adults talking about the kitchen table we could sneak off to a TV in another room and watch
Yes, and even with the grey wig and beard, you could see that he was very young - about thirty years younger than the age he was playing - and I thought his version of an older man's voice was not very good. Why not simply have got an older actor for the part?!?!
@@aintnobodyherebutuschicken1418 That's exactly what I said! Why didn't they hire an older actor instead of trying to (unsucessfully) age a ypung one?
Delightful! Well done. My only problem with these is the sound is low and even with headphones at the top, it's difficult to hear, but I endure for the show.
I'll be 50 this year never heard of this show but I really like it it was on when I was just born reminds of Friday the 13th the series that used to be on fox around 1987-89
I remember that Series. With the uncle a niece and young man. Have you seen Night Stalker TV Series 1970s about reported Carl Kolchack a reporter of horror stories.
I love this series, got to watch it when it was first run, I was between 6 and 7 years old, scared the crap out of me when I watched it with others but was even worse when watching by myself. The episode 'Half-A-Death' is my favorite of all. Still creepy and scary after all these years. Real glad it's out on DVD now. As soon as I saw the quality of these uploads I ordered the complete DVD set and now I'm just waitin' for it! Great show, every episode. The quality of the DVD set should be better than what we have here, but the uploads all look great too, apart from the black bars on either side. The DVDs obviously should fit the screen, original television aspect and all.
I kind of remember this episode. I also remember Lyn Loring. I never liked her. She always looked demented to me. Other than this episode, I am enjoying the series.
I agree with you so much! I couldn't stand that girl. She had one of the weirdest faces I have ever seen. Huge, crazy-looking saucer eyes! And with all the screaming! But the creepiest thing about it was Rip Torn's (old man) terrible acting!
These past programs, dramas, films, etc were filmed recorded for the viewers enjoyment, not like today now its fancy camera angles, lights etc and now added political correctness propaganda ,, "its bit the hand that feeds it" you can have the biggest TV ,but now it's absolutely rubbish, these times of entertainment absolutely wonderful
The singer in this episode is American singer Shelby Flint of "Joey" and "Angel on my Shoulder" fame. The song was written by Los Angeles musician Ian Jack. I don't yet know who sang the male part, but I would like to find out. Any bets?
"A Touch of Madness" with guest stars Rip Torn(a very good character actor in film and television),Geraldine Page(film and tv roles),Lyn Losing(has played good and bad characters in many film and tv shows),Michael Bell(has appeared in many tv shows,voice overs,films),),Richard Angarola(veteran of stage,film,&,tv),Stacy Harris(veteran of stage,film,&,tv),Jan Clayton(veteran of film,&,tv),&,George D. Wallace(also tv and film veteran),a weird tale of an emotionally ill woman staying with some mentally unhinged relatives who are mysterious types."-🎃.🌐☢🌐.
I'll have to watch this episode again and pay closer attention. Had the couple exhumed the corpses and reburied them in the cellar? Or had the graves outside been empty all along as part of a ruse? Why were the men murdered, and by whom? Did the old couple actually exist, even, or were they hallucinations on the heroine's part? Did the sheriff intend to arrest them at the end, if in fact they were real and he suspected that they were murderers?
I find these 70's shows much better than what we're offered today. Something special about the way they were filmed.
Great film. Thank you for posting it.

Love Ghost Story!
The aunt and uncle seem like phantoms. #👻
Lyn Loring's screaming bugged me. Otherwise, I enjoyed Mr. and Mrs. Rip Torn.
im so enjoying these
je ne m'en lasse pas ... :)
Thank you 😊
What I like best are the guest stars, actors we haven’t seen in years, here Geraldine Page, Lynn Loring.
I love this series, got to watch it when it was first run, I was between 6 and 7 years old, scared the crap out of me when I watched it with others but was even worse when watching by myself. The episode 'Half-A-Death' is my favorite of all. Still creepy and scary after all these years. Real glad it's out on DVD now. As soon as I saw the quality of these uploads I ordered the complete DVD set and now I'm just waitin' for it! Great show, every episode. The quality of the DVD set should be better than what we have here, but the uploads all look great too, apart from the black bars on either side. The DVDs obviously should fit the screen, original television aspect and all.
The two old people sang a song very well but they talked like insane.
Dementia does that. Lol
That's because they were
"I don't know but I think her Aunt an Uncle are Ghosts!!!"
Mr French🥰🥰🥰
Oh! I was trying to place him, but I was thinking Mr. Belvadier. 😊
I kind of remember this episode. I also remember Lyn Loring. I never liked her. She always looked demented to me. Other than this episode, I am enjoying the series.
I agree with you so much! I couldn't stand that girl. She had one of the weirdest faces I have ever seen. Huge, crazy-looking saucer eyes! And with all the screaming! But the creepiest thing about it was Rip Torn's (old man) terrible acting!
Best horror in the 70's
These past programs, dramas, films, etc were filmed recorded for the viewers enjoyment, not like today now its fancy camera angles, lights etc and now added political correctness propaganda ,, "its bit the hand that feeds it" you can have the biggest TV ,but now it's absolutely rubbish, these times of entertainment absolutely wonderful
What's that rocking thing called at 6:02? I want one! I remember one when I was really little and haven't seen one since.
Geraldine Page reminds me of Karen Black of 1975’s Trilogy Of Terror... Another GREAT actor.
You are so cute!
She reminfs me of Jennifer Powers.
Anything Geraldine Page is in, I'm there. Great Actress!
I'm not clear how the niece came so quickly under the delusion of the aunt and uncle.
Excellent! It was the two cats and the rat was the butler. Cool!
The singer in this episode is American singer Shelby Flint of "Joey" and "Angel on my Shoulder" fame. The song was written by Los Angeles musician Ian Jack. I don't yet know who sang the male part, but I would like to find out. Any bets?
"A Touch of Madness" with guest stars Rip Torn(a very good character actor in film and television),Geraldine Page(film and tv roles),Lyn Losing(has played good and bad characters in many film and tv shows),Michael Bell(has appeared in many tv shows,voice overs,films),),Richard Angarola(veteran of stage,film,&,tv),Stacy Harris(veteran of stage,film,&,tv),Jan Clayton(veteran of film,&,tv),&,George D. Wallace(also tv and film veteran),a weird tale of an emotionally ill woman staying with some mentally unhinged relatives who are mysterious types."-🎃.🌐☢🌐.
I'll have to watch this episode again and pay closer attention. Had the couple exhumed the corpses and reburied them in the cellar? Or had the graves outside been empty all along as part of a ruse? Why were the men murdered, and by whom? Did the old couple actually exist, even, or were they hallucinations on the heroine's part? Did the sheriff intend to arrest them at the end, if in fact they were real and he suspected that they were murderers?
You had all the same questions that I did. But why did they have the graves as a ruse??? That doesn't make sense to me either?!
Good episode. I need a refreshing tonic.
l like the song golden memories are sweetest dream that could ever be, my husband/friend are this way now. This song lives in my mind/consciousness.
It sounds a lot like "You don't bring me flowers" But that hadn't been written yet.....
she sure is good at screaming!
