Re: ONE MILLION BC (1940) (reply) There were formal re-releases ca. '46 and '52, although if the newspaper ads are to be believed, it was in almost continuous release somewhere throughout the war years and beyond. UA seemed to have unloaded it fairly quickly, for... |

Re: REEFER MADNESS questions (reply) That's a very interesting article, doctor, and certainly does make it a real possibility that "Sex Slaves" is another retitling of "RM," although there is the possibility that when/if they were just cribbing the ad art from the pressbook... |

Re: REEFER MADNESS questions (reply) OK, this is starting to get ridiculous! There is a case to be made that "Sex Slaves" might be an alternate title, but I wouldn't say it's certain. Definitely intriguing though. Dr. K, did you notice a pattern of where the "Sex Slaves"... |

Re: REEFER MADNESS questions (reply) My other favorite subject! I've done a lot of research on this film and I concur, that once again, IMDb is completely effed in the head. I also believe the film was produced in '38 at the earliest, as producer George Hirliman... |

Re: The Cinema of Dwain Esper (reply) I am not sure where the claim that Esper directed this film first originated but it seems to have happned only within the last decade but there is plenty of evidence to cast doubt upon it.I suspect it might be more tail... |

Re: The Cinema of Dwain Esper (reply) It just struck me, but on the first "Narcotic" ad, the man injecting the woman is almost the exact same pose that's on the "Marihuana, Weed With etc." poster art. Sometimes I'm a little thick... --Peter |

Re: The Cinema of Dwain Esper (reply) Dr. S, I found this one from Miami in June of '34. It also looks like "Sins of Love" played on the west coast earlier that year, March/April-ish: Also wanted to mention, and I'm not sure if you've seen it, the lawsuit against... |

Re: The Cinema of Dwain Esper (reply) Thanks for the outstanding links to "How to Undress..." Classic Dwain! I stupidly don't have this anymore, but thought you folks might enjoy this one: Nice to know there are other Esper freaks out there! --Peter |

Re: The Cinema of Dwain Esper (reply) Dr. Kiss, you are a fountain of knowledge, many thanks for the "Inyaah" tip. It's funny but I've been looking for anything on this in it's original title for years (I also collect early ethnographic movies) and... |

Re: The Cinema of Dwain Esper (reply) Exactly, and I think it's a testament to the changed times and quality of Grant's upbringing that it could possibly be viewed as "enlightened." Although, I must admit, you're right, it is a far cry from the usual... |

Re: The Cinema of Dwain Esper (reply) Well, in that case - enjoy! Here's the original release for "Marihuana": A bit of a dead card, but it's the only one I've ever seen from the original release of "Narcotic": The syphlitic... |

Re: The Cinema of Dwain Esper (reply) Actually, Dwain didn't direct "Reefer Madness," although he did claim ownership at one point. His contribution was "Marihuana, Weed With Roots in Heck," which is slightly more delirious than "Reefer... |

Re: what is known about the original THE CAT CREEPS? (reply) I posted this before in the Golden Age forum and apologize if this is discouraged (I'm relatively new here and your ways are strange to me): I like how they changed Carl's name to Carlos for the journey south. Some fantastic... |

Re: BLACK CAT poster worth $250,000? (reply) It was a forgery, and he got took. Or do you argue with that, too? As a matter of fact I do, plus the added bonus of "find my source for me." Pass. I think I know what the problem is - you've heard the story of the... |
