WAR OF THE SATELLITES - Walter Greene - "Mitzi & Jay's Scene" (1958)

Leave it to Roger Corman to throw in a comedy sketch at some random point in a film. Here we have the typical parked car, teens making out, see something weird in the sky, go & check it out scene, but this time it's just a little different because we've got comedienne Mitzi McCall as the girl. It's a little hard to explain, but very obvious when you listen to it. Mitzi went on to have an amazing TV and cartoon voiceover career. It seems Jay made one more movie & called it quits. Walter Greene, the composer of the soundtrack, also went on to have an equally amazing career creating music that helped shape millions of our lifes without us even realizing it, the man who did the music for cartoons including Woody Woodpecker, Chilly Willy, Daffy Duck, Pink Panther & more. Here's a very strange scene from "War Of The Satellites" that sounds more like it's from a "Three Stooges" episode.

GOJIRA, EBIRA, MOSURA: NANKAI NO DAIKETTO (Godzilla Versus The Sea Monster) - Masaru Satô - "Ebirâ's First Appearance" (1966)

The first time that Ebirâ appears in "Godzilla Versus The Sea Monster," we're given this wild musical treatment from Masaru Satô, then, just like that, that Giant Lobster just serenely disappears, the proverbial calm after the storm. Pretty schizoid, but very interesting to listen to! A wild guitar lick with some blaring horns, in this corner, from way out deep in the ocean, weighing in at 173 tons, the Eastern Oceanic Super Heavyweight champion, here's Ebira!!! This DVD would make a great X-mas gift for that Godzilla freak in your life, it's a work of art to look at and listen to!

DAS PHANTOM VON SOHO - Martin Böttcher - "Opening Credits" (1964)

This German Film, "The Phantom Of Soho" has a way crazy jazzy sleazy soundtrack by the amazing composer Martin Böttcher, who's career stretches from the 1950's all the way up to the present day. It's no wonder this stuff is so insanely cool! This movie takes place in a blue light district and a strip club in Soho, can't get much sleazier than that! Have a nice vicarious experience!

DEATH CURSE OF TARTU - Al Jacobs - "Tell Me Who You Are" (1966)

Back in the 60's you needed a second title as a film maker, so the studio could release a double feature, hence we have "Death Curse Of Tartu," a second billing to the hit main feature "The Sting Of Death." Needless to say, there are a lot of overlapping elements in the two movies. Al Jacobs did the music for both movies, & they got Neil Sedaka for the main feature, who knows who's singing this Chad & Jeremy wannabe tune. It ain't bad for a slow tune, the crackling you hear in the background isn't static, but the fire for the marshmellows. Rent or buy the DVD & watch the same guy get tossed in the water in both movies!

THE HORROR OF PARTY BEACH - The Del-Aires - "Drag"(Opening Credits) (1964)

Well, since summer is almost over, we'd better head back to the beach once again, so grab on to something & hold on tight cause here's the rambunctious 'opening credits' from "The Horror Of Party Beach." Back when 'rumble' actually meant something, it's The Del-Aires again with a one way killer instrumental, motorcycles and sports cars included! Short, but to the point!!

MISSION MARS - Sturg Pardalis/The Forum Quorum - "No More Tears" (1968)

Okay all you lucky people, during the 'opening credits' sequence of "Mission Mars," The Forum Quorum" treats us to this Very Special Spacey theme song, "No More Tears" written by Gus Pardalis and sung by none other than Sturg Pardalis, and Sturg is a cool name you must admit, so it should be no surprise that this is an exceptionally cool tune, no argument! Stop yer crying, no more tears, they're goin' off into space and everything's gonna be all right, well, at least until they meet that extra weird monster! You'll see when you watch it, this movie is about balls!

No More Tears
