SATURDAY NIGHT ON SATURN - 21 Records That Look Like Sci-Fi Soundtracks But Aren't

 

 A couple of years ago I downloaded this huge file of one million unsorted record covers from the internet archive. I've deleted about half of them, but it's truly amazing how many records have been made in a fairly short amount of time. So, this is a bunch I've found that look like movies but aren't!

This was a digital release by Coming Soon!!! in 2014.

The Wait is Over!

This German album called "Servitors Of The Gods" by The Black Explosion came out in 2012!

The Black Explosion - Teaser

This French Album by Christian Clozier came out in 1992.

Christian Clozier - Quasars 6

This 2012 seven inch surf single looks legitimately 1965.

 Martian Denny - Crossfire

This two CD Australian release of various artists came out in 1999.

It looks like Dr. Who in Las Vegas!

This 2009 three song EP from Russia called "FLAME" looks like an upcoming adventure from somewhere!

Flame - Jen

Maybe if Jerry Warren had made a Sci-Fi movie called "The Mothership."

Future Funk Squad - Spiders

This 1958 LP by Les Baxter looks like it could have been the soundtrack for "Missile To The Moon."

Les Baxter - Saturday Night on Saturn

Is it Outer Limits and Outer Space or is it Out Of Limits and Out Of Space?

This 2014 digital release is a soundtrack without a movie. 

How's that work?

 

This 2010 disco single from Argentina looks like some unknown Czechoslovakian movie from the 1960's.

XARION - Magical Journey

This Hawkwind record looks like an episode of "Flash Gordon."

This 2012 Belarus digital release looks like it's from a movie called "Star-Sub."

And Thanx to Randall Landers for the link to this page that's all about 'em!!

This 2010 album by The Sword called "Warp Riders" looks like a 60's Sci-Fi paperback.

The Sword - Tres Brujas

Maybe they thought there was a movie to go along with this 1997 LP when they made it.

The Desert Sessions - Johnny The Boy

People in England have been waiting 21 years for this to become an actual movie!

The Creeps - Ed Rush & Optical

This 2001 German CD came out after there were a whole bunch of Perry Rhodan radio shows released on cassette in the 80's.

This 2008 mini-album CD has a song on it called "Space Elevator."

This 2014 Australian digital release of various artists was one of many with the same theme. Could have fooled me that there wasn't a movie called "Primal Drive."

 

This last one is one of my favorite album covers. I had this 1976 French record by Patrick Vian until somebody offered me a nice price for it that I couldn't turn down.

Patrick Vian - Bruits Et Temps Analogues

HIGH SCHOOL CAESAR - "Mob Rule In A High School" (1960)

This week's Saturday Night Special is a classic juvenile hot rod film from 1960 called "High School Caesar."

 

Dungeon Hero John Ashley is a spoiled little rich kid named Mat Stevens. He's "Cool as a freezer, that's why they call him Caesar!" IMDB has his name as Matt, but according this poster, I beg to differ.

 

This is Mat's girlfriend Lita Owens as played by Daria Massey. Search as hard as you want, but all you're going to basically find about Daria is, "She was an actress," and a list of her credits. There's a Facebook click bait page based in Nigeria, that says she died last year, but I wouldn't go there unless you're really on the prowl for a virus! 

(After I threw out that challenge, our pal KD found this old newspaper clipping abour Daria. It doesn't really add any new info, but is still interesting as Heck! The movie mentioned in the article titled "The Magic Brain" was actually "The Magic Ring.")

 

The rockin' soundtrack was written by the phenomenal Nicholas Carras who composed the music for an incredible array of films like "Missile To The Moon," "She Demons," "Date Bait," "Frankenstein's Daughter," "The Astro-Zombies," and more!

 

The High School election is rigged, and Mat has his pals making sure that he wins!

 

 

Mat's best friend is called Cricket, and he wants to go out with this special blonde he likes named Wanda, and Mat guarantees that she will be Cricket's girlfriend, except Wanda has other plans!

 

 

The kids are all hanging out drinking Cokes at their favorite joint called The Wagon. That's Wanda on the far left. Wanda was played by Judy (Adventures Of Superman, Magnificent Obsession) Nugent.

 Mat's rich parents are out of the country, so he's running all kinds of rackets at the school. He's even mean to the service people employed by his parents.

It's gotta be depressing to be twenty-six, and still be in high school. That's how old John was when he made this film!

The most important thing in life to Mat is to keep his hair slicked back.

 

 

The kids all decide to have a hot rod race! Mat tells everybody that there is a $2.00 entry fee to race, and when they balk, he tells them that the winner will get this special coin that he has.

 The guy who was running for President against Mat wins the race, and the coin, but after the race is over, Mat with Cricket in the car, run Kelly off the road.

 

Kelly dies in the accident, and Mat retrieves his coin, and then Mat and Cricket will deny knowing anything about the accident.

 

One of Mat's rackets is that he sells stolen tests to any kid who has five bucks, and doesn't want to fail. A new test comes up that he needs a copy of, so he sends his goons to the office to get it!

The two dummies almost get caught by the Principal, and it really pisses Mat off!

This shot is iconic 1960! A stud and two dolls!

 

Wanda is walking down the street, when Mat forces her into the car. Cricket is in the driver's seat, and Mat tells him to take a hike. He tells Cricket he wants Wanda for himself and that Cricket can now have Lita. Cricket's not happy, but leaves anyway. In the meantime, the coin falls out of Mat's pocket.

 

Wanda has the coin and gets away, and takes off running, and at first Mat pursues her on foot, and then in his car! At one point she hides under this bridge with Mat standing right above her.

 

Meanwhile Crickets heads back to the club, and when he gets there he tells all the kids that Mat killed Kelly, and in the meantime Wanda goes back to the rest of the kids, and tells them that Mat had Kelly's coin. Steve (Agent For H.A.R.M.) Stevens is Cricket.

 

 

Mat gives up on finding Wanda, and heads back to The Wagon where they are supposed to be having a big birthday party for him, but nobody's there.

 

 

The kids all turn on him, and the guy who owns The Wagon calls the cops, and the blasphemous reign of the mighty Caesar is put to an end, once and for all! Kind of reminds me of recent political events, just on a smaller scale!

BEANY AND CECIL In "Sleeping Beauty And The Beast" - 1962

Welp, the clock on the wall sez it's time for Beany And Cecil... Today, Cecil goes to Fairytale Land where he battles Dishonest John and saves Sleeping Beauty from that dirty guy's clutches!

It starts with the Captain reading some fairy tales to Beany and Cecil. The story is Sleeping Beauty and The Wicked Old Witch. Cecil turns into Prince Chow Mein and heads off to find his dream girl...

Cecil finds Faitytale Land and goes ashore.

In the meantime, Dishonest John is playing the wicked old witch. He's out doing his 'good' deeds for the day, starting with knocking Humpty Dumpty off his wall.

Then he gives the old woman's shoe a hotfoot.

He turns the heat up on Jack!

DJ plays the mean old wolf and blows the 3 little piggies house down...

After all his deeds are done, he goes back to his castle where he keeps Sleeping Beauty asleep!

Cecil arrives at the castle. When he tries to enter, DJ pulls the draw bridge up on him!

Next Cecil gets a guillotine on his rear end, exposing his cute little butt.

So, Cecil chases DJ out of the castle. As DJ runs along the road, Humpty Dumpty hits him with a big old creme pie to get his revenge! That's Simple Simon there supplying the goods.

Then Little Boy Blew blasts a note on his horn that sends an electric charge up DJ's spine.

Cecil hops in the old lady's shoe and stomps off after that dirty guy!

The sea serpent blocks DJ's attempted escape, he then kicks DJ into the air...

And he comes down square into the powder room. Jack turns up the heat, and...

The room is now a rocket ship and it heads into space with DJ inside. After knocking the cow over the Moon, the missile is swallowed up by the Man in the Moon.

Back at the castle, Cecil gives Sleeping Beauty a big sloppy lick and she comes out of her coma! In the best possible way, woo woo!!

After an adventure like that, Cecil needs to get some sleep... Join us tomorrow where Eegah!! obliviously has something cool for us, here at The Dungeon!!..
