>What the heck is Svengoolie? Svengoolie is one of the last great Late Night Horror Hosts still on the air. Think Elvira but instead of a hot woman it's a fat old man who lives in a coffin and get pelted with rubber chickens.
CLEAR THE AIR LANES, CLEAR ALL THE AIR LANES FOR THE BIG BROADCAST
TONIGHT'S MOVIE: THE BLOB (1958)
MOVIE DESCRIPTION: An alien lifeform consumes everything in its path as it grows and grows.
>Where can I watch Svengoolie? On the TV channel MeTV. Check your cable channels to see if you get MeTV, most American service providers carry MeTV. Sorry, I've never been able to find a pirate stream of MeTV. Americans can also get MeTV for FREE over the airwaves with an antenna. If you find a stream, please post a link in the thread!

Tonight's Movie: The Blob Year: 1958 Director: Irvin S. Yeaworth Jr., Russell S. Doughten Jr. Writers: Theodore Simonson (screenplay), Kay Linaker (screenplay)
Description: In his first starring role, Steve McQueen plays a typical oversexed, car-lovin' highschooler who can't get anyone to believe his story about a huge meteor, which crashes to earth and begins exuding a pink, gooey substance. Affixing itself to the body of an old man, the "blob" begins parasitically sucking the life out of several unfortunate humans, growing to an enormous size. Problem is, the disappearances of the victims can all be explained (one is supposed to be out of town, another is attending a convention), so the cops still won't believe McQueen or his girlfriend Aneta Corsaut (the future Helen Crump of The Andy Griffith Show). Rallying his teen pals, McQueen finally manages to get the adults' attention-but by now, the Blob is consuming entire city blocks.
FEATURING:
Steve McQueen ... Steve Andrews (KINO) Aneta Corsaut ... Jane Martin Earl Rowe ... Lt. Dave Olin Howland ... Old Man Stephen Chase ... Dr. T. Hallen John Benson ... Sgt. Jim Bert George Karas ...

Anyone else remember when you were up late at night in Chicago or the Chicago area and you saw him while flipping through channels?
Lincoln Harris
He comes on earlier and earlier the more popular he gets nationwide. He used to come on at 10 Eastern, then 9, and now he comes on at 8 eastern. He's moved from late night to prime time.
Leo Miller
CLEAR THE AIR LINES!! CLEAN THE BOWLING LANES!!
Brody Flores
I cant wait to see a HD special OP night vision commercial
Unfortunately I don't know if you really can. I keep hoping someone will pull a broadcast of this and stream it on youtube or something but no one has yet.
An extreme option would be to try and subscribe to a tv/internet provider in the USA that offers online TV streaming that has MeTv. I know Comcast offers a cheaper online TV cable package that includes MeTV. You would have to pay monthly for it but you could stream MeTV through your browser. It's an extreme option but that may be the only way to get it over seas.

I only come here to see what movie is going to be shown this week. Looks like this time is an actual quality classic for once. One of the best.
Benjamin Kelly
Just got here lads, am I too late to pick up the plot?
Tonight's my first night watching. Someone mentioned Svengoolie in the Joe Bob Briggs Last Drive-in thread and I decided to check it out since I'm a fan of both The Blob and old school scary movie hosts.

Elijah Richardson
MY BODY IS READY!
Adam Murphy
That little autistic shit is safe.
Zachary Barnes
Just the Karloff trilogy is enough. Nice story, pretty complete. Ghost ruined it all. Universal in the 40s was a trainwreck except for Wolf-Man. And only The Creature in the 50s could have a decent trilogy that ended the story with no more useless sequels.
Sebastian Taylor
is Son of Frankenstein peak American expressionism?
Isaiah Powell
My body can't be ready for that much kino. Fuck, I'm going to write so many personal checks next month!
Camden Young
DANGER WILL ROBINSON!!! DANGER!!

I'm surprised they brought lost in space back to a reasonable time. They banished it to 1 am for a while
