Courtesy of Logicalsmash from dailymotion. Here's an extremely rare logo used back in late-1950's. This is the Distributors Corporation of America that was used on "Plan 9 from Outer Space."   more...Now this logo for it's time knowing it came from the worst movie of all -time by some credits is pretty decent. This music is ominous and comes from a static logo which may creep some people out. Overall, if this logo was shown in today's movies it would be cheap and very cheesy but was decnt at the time. Enjoy!!  less

Maybe this is the first commercial of cocoa puffs in 1959, because i haven't saw this commercial. I DONT OWN GENERAL MILLS. I OWN NOTHING. BUT No copyright infringement, because i got this from classicads.tv.

Signal 30 Part II
Legendary "shock" driving safety film featuring numerous scenes of mutilated cars and injured/dead people and a voiceover lacking in compassion. Produced in cooperation with   more...the Ohio State Highway Patrol and shown to millions of young drivers for over 40 years. CONTENT ADVISORY: Many disturbing scenes of violent deaths and accident scenes; cries of crash victims on soundtrack.  less

Vincent Price plays Fredrick Loren, the malevolent host of a "haunted house party." Loren offers his guests $10,000 if they can survive a night in the murderous mansion.

Trivia: The house used   more...for the exterior shots is the Ennis Brown house in Los Angeles, designed by Frank Lloyd Wright and built in 1924. It was later used in the films "Blade Runner", "Black Rain", and "Rocketeer".  less

Taken from Mary Poppins

CLASSIC HORROR

CLASSIC HORROR

The merits of this incredible film have not been exaggerated. It's not actually the worst film ever made, but it's the most entertaining bad one you'll ever find. The story was built around a few minutes   more...of Bela Lugosi footage shot days before he died (in '56). The scene of old Bela visiting the grave of an imaginary dead wife is really pretty sad to watch. But as soon as aliens arrive and revive the wife (Vampira), a policeman (big Tor Johnson), and "Bela" (played by chiropractor friend of the director hiding his face with a cape), it's all laughs. Audiences stare in disbelief at the studio floor under the moving grass in the cemetery, flying saucers made of paper plates, night constantly changing to day and back again, and a jet cockpit set that elementary school kids could have designed for a play. TV psychic Criswell narrates ("Can you prove this didn't happen?"). In fact, he says it all: "There comes a time in every man's life when he just can't believe his eyes." Gregory Walcott and Mona McKinnon play the modern couple living near the graveyard. Dudly Manlove (!) plays the effeminate Eros the Alien, aided by Joanna Lee, now a rich TV writer. Lyle Talbot (in his third Wood film) plays a general with a little Washington office. Wood was also in charge of the special effects and editing. Worth watching nine times.

REVOLUTION CALLING

Well, ladies and gentlemen, here's a wierd variation for Leo the Lion, and no, this is not a spoof that was taken from Adobe Photoshop, either. This is the green against black and white version of Leo   more...the Lion, and I don't think this was CGI influence because it was too early for CGI to be part in movies. I'm not even sure how they made the background green and everything else back and white, because the Alfred hitchcock classic is in Technicolor. Anyway, the pretty interesting version of MGM in North by Northwest. Also, you notice that Leo roars three times in this logo. Well, that's how the regular MGM logo would do it from 1957-1959 because in 1960, they would cut Leo down to two roars. Enjoy, peeps!!  less
