Classic Ghosts (Kino Cult #18) Bluray

Virtually unseen since their late-night airings on ABC television in 1973, The Classic Ghosts is a series of five feature-length teleplays, shot live on videotape (in the style of daytime dramas) and meticulously restored by the UCLA Film & Television Archive. Not only do these gothic thrillers showcase an array of celebrated actors, but are notable for having been produced by a primarily female creative team, including producer Jacqueline Babbin (Sybil) and directors Lela Swift (Dark Shadows) and Gloria Monty (Sorority Kill). This two-disc edition includes all five productions: The Haunting of Rosalind, The Screaming Skull, The Deadly Visitor, The House and the Brain, and And the Bones Came Together. Interviews with Mark Quigley (John H. Mitchell Television Curator, UCLA Film & Television Archive), Maya Montañez Smukler (Head of the UCLA Film & Television Archive Research and Study Center), and Amanda Reyes (Made for TV Mayhem) | Demonstration of 2" video technology, featuring David Crosthwait (DC Video)
