I don't recall ever seeing THE SMILING GHOST. Hmmm, could be fun(?).

GREEN SLIME was letterboxed when it was shown on 4/21. I think that was the first time it was, Much better than the old pan and scan.

Warner Archive released SNOW DEVILS last year. I think TCM shows GASLIGHT once or twice a month the whole dang year.

I think this might be the first time TCM is showing Gojira, instead of Godzilla. At least, I don't remember a showing. Certainly the better film of the two.

WAR BETWEEN THE PLANETS was also known as PLANET ON THE PROWL. For some reason, I've always included PLANETS AGAINST US in this group as well, but it definitely doesn't belong.

1. Wild, Wild Planet (1965)2. The War of the Planets (1966)3. War Between the Planets (1966)4. The Snow Devils (1967)War Between the Planets is the only one not to be on TCM.However, I believe it was released on DVD from Dark Sky.

I could swear it's been on since then, since I have it on dvd-r, but maybe time flies. It may not be tops, but it's Gamma IV, baby!
