I love this movie!! Saw it when it aired in 77, I was 13. Born in the 60's, grew up in the 70's, partied in the 80's. Best of times!
"68" right here...our formative years were nothing short of magical
Same here!
Same! 1964 baby
Here, here!
Same here!!! OMG were OLD 😅
Karen Black was an exceptional talent. She was always her own person. Her range was impressive and I enjoy her work immensely. She had a gift.
I second that!
She just seemed designed to be an actress because her features are so intense.
@@cheayunju But she could also be adorable or funny in the same breath.
This movie is a combination of Trilogy of Terror and Burnt Offerings.
She was a dynamic actress and very under-rated.
Karen Black in Trilogy of Terror! She was awesome!
(spoiler alert) Those teeth!
She scared the mess out of me in that movie!
@@kevincampbell5785 I'm still freaked out that something sharp is going to get my feet under the bed. LOL
Karen Black was an all-time great actress. I miss her very much.
Karen Black, one of the reigning queens of the 1970s B horror movies!
Karen Black reigns supreme as the Queen of horror movies. Eerily she plays her roles perfectly. Great storyline, excellent cast. Thank you for the exciting upload. 10/9/2019.
Of COURSE I liked this strange movie because of Karen Black , but while I was watching I was thinking it would have been better if they cast the woman staying the house would have instead been cast as Mrs Oliver’s house maid
The 70’s was the happiest time of my childhood I was 8 years old in 77, even with 6 channels you always looked forward to watch what was on television, you were only given a few options; their was no VHS, DVD’s or UA-cam...You had the big square box it was simple and you were happy!
I was also 8 in '77. Now we are in our 50's!...How did that happen? 😀
I was 7. The only bad thing about the 70's was the abuse that went on. A LOT of wives got the brunt end of that sht.
@@electraglide9357 I was another 8 year old in 1977. Time flies !
U was 8.I was born👶
I too was just 8 years old in 1977! Those were such fun times! So simple.
Karen Black maybe gone but movies live on. She's still in our hearts.
What a wonderful surprise Karen Black cannot beat her movies !!!RIP Fine Lady!!!
This was an excellent movie on mental health and trauma I love Karen Black
That was quite the ending! Not sure why some below were disappointed with it. Karen Black has left behind some incredible performances and this is one.
This reminds me of my past 😢
Laying on the living room floor with my brother, looking through the HUGE Toys R Us Christmas gift catalog while my mother and father watched this movie on TV 😳
I pretended to be into the catalog ... BUT! I always had one eye and one ear on this movie 📺🎞!
Karen Black has a very unique face… She can be hideous one moment and stunning the next 🧐
Thank you for posting this for us 😘!
Shannon LaCorte very intimate for a kid watching a Karen Black movie! twisted
@@christinalopez6564 What in the heck are you blathering about all by yourself?
Ha ha ha!! I got myself inside an empty sideboard to watch forbidden films at the age of five! Once I was found unconscious due to lack of air and my parents got more fright from that then that from film!😂
Ms. Karen Black i can honestly say she's the ""Queen Of Horror Films". Her career has certainly brought us suspense, scare jumps, excellent acting & very well loved by us horror fans. If it wasn't for Karen she paved the way for other horror damsels like Jaime Lee Curtis, Amy Irving, Sissy Spaciek, & Linda Blair. We certainly miss you love & as long as horror movies to continue to be a popular genre in films, you will always be in our warmest thoughts. Thank you for your many years as a female protagonist & standing head to head with men in the horror business.
Loved her in "Trilogy of Terror."
@@reneebraxton1032 You & Me Both......
WHAT A BEAUTIFUL RECOGNITION AND TRIBUTE TO KAREN BLACK, ONE I WHOLEHEARTEDLY BELIEVE AND AGREE IN!!!GARY BAILEY KING OF DARKNESS AND GOD OF THUNDER AND LIGHTNING
@@janetbailey3804 thank you kindly for your generosity & kind words .....she's certainly is my favorite horror queen. My favorites from her is "Trilogy Of Terror", ",Burnt Offerings" & "House Of A 1000.Corpse".
Love these old 70’s movies. Makes me feel like a kid again. Brings back so many memories.
Growing upon the 70's and having 6 channels was so much easier, cause you had no chose but to watch what was on and enjoyed it very much.
+Alex Dolman we had a whopping three channels - four if you count pbs lol
Suppressingfire I wholeheartedly agree! that's one reason I look for old tv movies here on YT. I've found a bunch that I'd forgotten about.
+Alex Dolman I remember watching these shows on Creature Feature 10:30 to midnight on Sat night and then Wolfman Jack's Midnight Special till 2am and church at 9am. I sure do miss those days.
+Suppressingfire I got to agree. They must've been a big deal back in the 70's because I'm amazed at the level of quality some of these made for TV movies displayed. I was too young to appreciate them when they first aired but enjoyed them later on (early 90's) when the stations would air them late at night. Had insomnia and watching these were a godsend.
Ha! True. Do you remember when the tele was turned off at a certain time each night? Like the tele was not on and on like it is today, 2016. That loud noise would come on and we all knew to turn off the television lol.
I love Karen black and the background music makes this movie more creepy and interesting Karen's eyes are beautiful and yet creepy at the same time! I llove this movie so much I watch it over and over!!
Excellent old movie.......I just love all of Karen Black's movies, but my all-time favorite is Burnt Offerings.
Julie Darling .. House Of 1000 Corpses 👉 she's amazing !!
Julie Darling Trilogy of Terror. The sexy teacher
Julie Darling me too
My all time favorite is burnt offering s to
I saw Burnt Offerings when it came out and thought it was terrible. Over the years I have learned to appreciate it and it is now one of my all time favorite films. I love how its horror takes place largely in broad daylight. Very creepy.
For some reason the Late Show title that shows up every so often gives me a cozy feeling. Memories of late night tubing in the Seventies I guess.
+Tom RipsinLove old films. I can see how a mall looked in the 1970's here. Do you or anyone else know what that beeping sound in the mall is? The sound starts at 11:16 and starts again at 11:44 & again at 12:06. The beeping sound continiues when she exits the store after the wig scene. I was curious because another old film (I think A Christmas Story)had the same beeping sound. What is it?
+ToxicGhostVideos I assume it some sort of paging system for security or employees or something. I don't honestly remember hearing that in malls in the 70's, but that's my best guess.
+ToxicGhostVideos that sounds like the mall pa system
+ToxicGhostVideos To the best of my knowledge, those little bells were like a 'code' from departments of the store that needed manager assistance or approval for a transaction, or needed to make a cash drop or get change during the business day. It's the department store equivalent of a grocery cashier turning their light on for assistance. I remember them being used in department stores when I was very young, although you would still hear them being used in movies and TV for 'shopping sounds' long after they went out of use in actual department stores.
I know :)
Ahhhhh Karen Black the absolute queen of the 70s horror flicks!!! Love her..
She was a beautiful and talented woman.
R.I.P Karen Black🌹
I can't believe I found this! I was only 10 years old when it aired. Loved these old "Movie of the Week" shows. The networks put out good quality back then. Our society was so much better. We had "community" as it were only having 3 major networks and 2 UHF stations. Everyone could talk about the movies or programs the next day. If you missed it, too bad. There were no recorders then. Same thing with the Christmas and Thanksgiving Specials. If you missed Rudolph, you had to wait until the next year.
No one plays kooky like Karen Black. Rip. ❤️
+Lawrence Cook LOL! I love it!
O
That wasn't acting...she REALLY WAS that kooky in real life.
LaDeeDa Cook I wonder how much is acting she always plays some one cooky I love it her facial expressions are the best
Remember her crazy punk band where there naked painted crazy make up huge pantagrams I swear she was on some .major drugs I wish I could of went to her crazy shows doing handstands on stage naked too weird and funny
When this movie aired in 1977 I was 12 years old I tempered tat I lived this movie. Over the years I thought of it wishing that I could see it again. Back when it aired because TV shows and TV movies would berebroadcast as reruns I got to watch it twice. Then never again. Thank this brings me closer to the happiest time of my life. My childhood. So thank you, thank you, thank you. Please keep these old movies coming.
My childhood is my fondest time as well. I gotta work on that !
Love Karen Black and George Hamilton wasn't as orange when we younger 😄😄 Thanks for uploading ☺ 🖒
RIP Karen Black! Thanks for classics like this one!
What a terrific movie. Richard Matheson never fails to tell a great story.
He’s the best!
She played a similar role in Trilogy of Terror Millicent and Therese. She was supposed to be the good sister Millicent who was kind of dowdy and awkward while her sister Therese was the blonde party girl who just happened to be evil. It turned out she had split personalities. She played both roles and I didn’t even recognize her
I grew up watching Karen Black.I loved her then and still do.Thank you for this wonderful movie.
A BIG THANK YOU TO ALL THE FRONTLINERS WORLDWIDE. May 16 2020. Surviving the lockdown thanks to these original movies. I don't think the Gen Z range will know how to appreciate them.
r.i.p. team karen black your body of work in films will always be a legacy still a fan 4life
Great movie. They don't make them like this anymore! Thanks for posting it.😄😄😄😄😄
I don't get why people seem to be hating this movie. It's one of the better 70s movies I've seen. It has only a few really 70s editing moments (awkwardly cutting off music in scene transitions, barely related stock shots padding out the movie, bad dubbing, that kind of thing), the story is cohesive and mysterious, keeping you guessing, the acting is awesome, it doesn't overstay it's welcome, and is paced well. The only reason I can think that people might not like it is because they think it will be like modern movies, but old, instead of being a product of it's time...
maichiki yiist - (love your name may or my cheeky) That's what I'm thinking too. Sad that people can't appreciate things created before their time. I grew up watching old black and white movies from the 20s - 40s and understood that they were using different technology as well as different special effects materials and so on. I focused on the story-telling, but also enjoyed the novelty of something "old," that now we call "vintage." It makes people seem intellectually shallow.
maichiki yiist Oh Lord,
just watch the movie
there must be an awfully lot of lonely people out there!!!!!
@@christinalopez6564 I don't think soo everyone don't like boring movies I'm one of them that don't like this one
@@louisewilliams4676 🤔maybe it's you not the movie
Your comment is why I decided to watch this film.
Beautiful, Beautiful Karen Black. There is noone like her.
Put a space between no one
One of my favorite movies of Karen Black. Also Trilogy Of Terror and Burnt Offerings! Such an amazing person and versatile incredibly talented performer, and so gorgeous!
Those two movies were the best. Burnt Offerings scared the you know what out of me. Frigging building coming back to it's full glory...even the garden...dam creepy. Trilogy the one with that wooden man figure when his chain falls off...creepy as heck...what one had the creepy limousine driver??
@@doreensupino6309 Burnt Offerings had the chauffer played by Anthony James. Loved the music in this movie as well.
Well.....she looks great as a blond. She really does. So pretty.
I love you too
I noticed that too and I usually hate it when brunettes fall for that "I think I'll try the blonde look" mindset.
Indeed she does, she was also blonde in The Day of the Locust.
I LOVE OLD MOVIES MAYBE BECAUSE MY WIFE AND I LIKE TO WATCH THEM TOGETHER RELAXING AND READING ALSO SIDE BY SIDE FOR 38 YEARS OF MARRIAGE SGT,USMC RET SHE'S A LT.ARMY RET GOD BLESS YOU AND YOURS 👏🏼👏🏼🤝🏻🌹
We're 46 years of marriage and love watching the movies from our younger days too. Can't wait to show him this one! Our favorite Karen Black movie was Trilogy of Terror. My husband did a stint in the Navy. If you get a chance to find it, watch Don't Be Afraid of the Dark with Kim Darby. Your Mrs will cling to you all night. Still scares me witless.🤣 Thank you for your service! God bless.
God bless you
TV Terrorland, Thanks for the download of this film. Saw it years ago, so glad to see it again! RIP Karen Black. Loved her in Trilogy of Terror, and Burnt Offerings!
George Hamilton was such a diva! Lol. Thx for the great childhood memories!!!! You are the best!
All of her characters were intense and with much depth. What a shame, seems like that cancer hits every actor. Thanks for the upload.
I love these old movies. I wasn't born yet so I'm watching them for the first time now. My new addiction is watching the ABC Movies of the Week on UA-cam, lol.
I watched ABC movies of the
week alot during the '70's. ABC
used to be the best station on
T.V. There were only a few
Channels that came in well.
There's so much on the internet
now that it takes forever to make
up my mind!
I will always miss Karen Black. She gave me so much life and so many memories. I love this woman.
I'll watch anything with Karen Black in it. May she forever Rest In Piece.
I see Richard Matheson wrote this too, as well as Trilogy Of Terror, also with Karen Black. He sure was prolific. Wrote countless works, including many scripts for the original Twilight Zone, the film version, and that hilarious Enemy Within episode of Star Trek.
George Estremera
Check out Dead of Night (1977).
Really amazing how natural she looks Switching between blonde and brunette! who cares if she is 26 or 36 or 46 for that matter, she was a hauntingly beautiful and a very versatile actress! Thanks to Karen Black we had some really fantastic horror films in the 70's. Thank you for uploading...really takes me back to my adolescence!
yes, he wrote so much stuff that has become ubiquitous in American culture, probably all of western culture, but most have never heard of him.
The 70's seemed a lot more fun, and sleazier. I like it.
What's in your basement tonight ?
sleazier or more natural? maybe one day you'll under... no forget it
+Solid State James Comey hunting terrorists and removing the encryption features from their phones.. lol
simon c you mean natural like wigs and makeup and all the other things Miss Black's character was wearing to ...ah, your right, forget it.
***** yeah well the wigs and make up obviously still exist today, and in much more excess. come on it's a movie... you can't expect there to be none of that, but that doesn't make it sleazy. hell even in real life, go outside and most people are wearing make up.
This film and The Pyx are among my favorite Karen Black performances.
A really great old movie! Thanks so much for posting it. I really enjoyed it.
I love Karen Black I love how dramatic she can be and she has the best facial expressions I love the way she talks
I am enjoying these movies. I use to be able to catch some of them sometimes on tv. I'm glad to be able to see them again at my leisure. always liked Karen Black. she was a good actress
I saw that iconic face Karen Black and had to click! Right? I love her trilogy of terror, I believe im in for a treat! 😉🤗
Trilogy of Terror!!!
Right Melodie?!! I can't seem to ever get tired of it, I go to it all the time wether or not others around me get the point. Its underated in my opinion, its so perfect! For different moods, and I love watching it cuddled up in bed alone with some wine n cheese and get a kick out of it each time! Lmao, Happy New Year😊🎉
She was so stunning , especially trying out the blond wig ,that red sweater looks awesome on her
Ell coper van dien goly fab a colortd
I liked the dark atmosphere and creepiness, but can't help wishing it was slightly longer...explaining some more of the situation to me. Overall, very interesting to watch these old movies from when I was just a baby. I even liked the occasional "Late Show" interruptions....takes you back in time for sure!
Yeah I'm very nostalgic myself. I remember they usually dressed up and wore nice clothes. I remember my Mother's and her friends bell bottoms, the "DRIVE-IN MOVIES", "LATE NIGHT MOVIES" and those 8-track tapes. I just felt like it was a great time.
Oh I'm sorry everybody - I'm forgetting to talk about the movie, I'm talking about the lifestyle. lol
But I wish young Ladies conducted themselves more like Karen Black. I've been drawn to her for a while now !
Thanks UA-cam for bringing back some of my favorite movies.
I love that there's discotheque in full swing in the middle of the afternoon.
Cocaine will do that too you!
honey that about unusual Nothing
@@dontcallmesam i like reading these i like karen Black are you applying to the reply about the cocaine karen Black i'm just asking cuz i don't understand i'm not being a smarty pants just curious
The seventies was a time as a child when you were excited to watch tv at night, you always knew something good would be on television with 6 channels. The TV Guide was so popular, the excitement of finding that favorite TV show and the only option of waiting for it to come on at it’s scheduled time.......
Or when the local station would "rest" your favourite show and you had to wait several months before it would be put back on the daily schedule again.
I STILL REMEMBER KAREN IN TRILOGY OF TERROR, SHE DEFINITELY HAD HER OWN WAY ... UNSETTLING,... CREEPY, PROBABLY A REAL DOWN TO EARTH PERSON IN REAL LIFE, A GIFTED AND ACCOMPLISHED ACTOR AND WOMEN , I ALWAY'S HAD A ENORMOUS RESPECT FOR HER ABILITIES .
right creepy for a fact but a good actress
Karen Black is a true beauty. Gorgeous.
So true nice to hear that from somebody else
My mom went to school with her. She says she was very cool
This movie is hilarious. And very entertaining in the most 70's clown way. I adore Karen Black she was amazing at playing demented characters.
Karen Black always did play in crazy movies, but I like her though, it's hard to believe that she isn't with us anymore. It just makes me so mad sometimes to know that we have to die, it's not fair!
You die because you sin. Sin from the beginning brings you to your final end. Everyone dies.
@@yvonnehemlick2642 You do not die "because you sin"...LOL...You die because you're old...because you have medical issues...because you got murdered or hit by a bus...But not because you sin. That's the dumbest thing I've ever heard. And yes...EVERYONE DIES...some sooner then others.
@@yvonnehemlick2642 No 🤡
Alex, I remember when there were only two channels to watch. I think it is not only a wonderful accomplishment to have all these choices; but, I consider it a miracle.
You must be talking about prior to ABC going on the air in 1960 or so ? If not why didn't you have a station from the big three networks plus local like everybody else did ?
cant beat Karen Black films lol :) Love this!! thank you very much for upping it to share :)
He nailed when he said, you're becoming a different person.
George Hamilton could hold me on a sofa by the fireplace any time he wants!
eww.
ah ah ah
Ikr! Me too!!
Brenda M right he was so fine and good looking wasn't he
Looks like bacon and sizzles with sleaze!
She had 38 in this , she was born in 1939. Your eyes was a trade mark. I always will love you K . B .
Before Jaime Lee Curtis was titled “scream queen” there was Karen Black!
Karen Black could act!
Thanks for uploading this great Karen Black film. Maybe Karen herself watched this video, we'd like to think, huh?
I love it. As a kid, late at night watching The Movie of the Week was a highlight.
This movie had a plot twist that I've never seen before in all my 65 years. Neat!
They should really put this on DVD. Karen Black was great in everything.
I ABSOLUTELY LOVE MRS.KAREN BLACK IN THIS MOVIE,,ABSOLUTELY LOVED IT.😘👏👌
I saw this movie when it first came out and now in February 2020...I didn't know Karen Black had died..she was so beautiful and talented..I loved all of her movies..
Thanks so much for uploading! Another oldie but goodie "Movie of the week." ♥ it!!
I will watch anything with Karen Black.
I'll never forget the fetish doll in Trilogy of Terror. Must watch, featuring Karen Black in every segment.
Saw it first time around. Never forgotten!! Its been uploaded. Its still very creepy!!
Scared me to pieces that movie. The doll was possessed.. Running around with that knife. I had nightmares for weeks after watching this
Trilogy of Terror was an EVENT when it first aired. And the Zuni Voodoo doll - omigod. It was all any of us talked about at school the next day. We were terrified out of our minds rofl 🤣
Haven't seen this movie in years. The first movie I saw Karen Black in was Five Easy Pieces with Jack Nicholson. I love her work. My favorite is Burnt Offerings. So glad to see this again.
I’ve always loved Karen’s eyes 🥰RIP KB🙏
Excellent movie every time I watch it I enjoy it. Major George Hamilton fan. Met him in person and he was exactly as suave and smooth as you think. Only thing not believable is the George's character would marry Miriam.
He didn't - LOL!!!
Grew up with these movies. Love it. Thank you
Isn't that just like a Labrador to take up with someone new and then protect them like they'd always been friends. Always a great pleasure to watch wonderful Karen Black.
Karen Black, always a beauty. RIP
Karen looked so pitiful when she died of cancer.
She was a beautiful lady.
This life is just no good.
It really never gives: it just lets you borrow it for a time, then breaks your heart when it cruelly takes it away.
Tony Tafoya Wow you need help, such a dark outlook on life.
I hope you got the help you need any feel a little better I wouldn't watch movies like this I love Karen Black and her movies and you went all the way to a dark place so what if she passed away of cancer we all have to pass away from from something maybe if you believed in the Life Hereafter and our Lord and savior Christ Jesus see you maybe in a better place either way it's the movie what a downer I keep forgetting how many people are mentally ill on these feeds!!! read your Bible find out who Christ Jesus is!!!
"She is a great Actress,Loved this movie!!!"
SHE WAS A STAR. #VERYUNDERRATED
"I CAN'T FLY THIS PLANE!!!!!!!!!" (RIP Karen Black)
That was weird. Most of it was in pitch black, although very entertaining. These 70's films are haunting.
Absolutely ! So many of them were like that. But it works, they were pioneers - it's great !
Karen Black also starred in Airplane 75 Easy Rider Trilogy of Terror Burnt Offerings and Come Back to the five and dime Jimmy Dean The Great Gatsby Nashville and Dark Blood among many many more!! 😎 Peace Ricky Parker
And 'Cisco Pike' with Kris Kristofferson. 'Trilogy of Terror' was scary.
Don't forget Five Easy Pieces.
I am enjoying these movies.
Peggy I love you too
Anything with Karen Black is always good!!!!
I enjoyed this. Thank you.
Real good movie.. I like Karen Black too..
THANKS for sharing.. I wish they still made movies like these..
Karen looks stunning with that blonde wig!
If Karen Black is in it its a worth watching.
AKA "what happens when the husband doesn't listen"
Good movie. It's great seeing Gloria LeRoy and Lucille Benson in the supporting cast.
Wow, Karen Black and George Hamilton, such great actors and movies in the 70's, grew up watching these.
Karen Black was a great actress, I don't remember seeing this film. I am sure I will enjoy it, thanks 🙏
Pretty good old flick😉 Didn't expect the ending. 👍👏
I love Karen Black, beginning from when I saw her in Easy Rider. She is excellent with Dan Curtis the director and writer Richard Matheson. Trilogy of Terror (Amelia), Burnt Offerings, fantastic, so creepy. Memories of not being able to sleep lol in my childhood 😄
Beautiful, spell gazing eyes, Karen Black.
I've been waiting for this one. Thanks!
Great little mystery. Impossible to guess. All you could do is wonder until the end. Richard Matheson is a unique writer.
