THE INNOCENTS - George Auric - "O Willow Waly" (1961)

"The Innocents" is a classic piece of work, a movie you can sit down and watch with a person of the opposite sex, have a good time, and not fall asleep! There's no ray-guns, or rubber monsters, but anytime Freddie Francis is involved, it's most likely, you've got a winner, and Freddie was doing the cinematography on this film!

Here's the basic skinny! Deborah Kerr as Miss Giddens and Michael Redgrave as (I love this part) "The Uncle" discuss the job opening he has at his castle as live-in governess, watching over his neice and nephew, because he'd rather hang out at the local pub instead!!

Yeah, it's true, he can't handle this place! Poor bastard!!

Now it's starting to get interesting! The first person that Miss Giddens meets is sweet little Flora! Oh, just like a flower!! Last time we saw Pamela Franklin she was smoking cigarettes in "The Nanny", she sure grew up fast, that would only be 4 years later after this movie! Pamela also went on to be quite the scream queen in the 70's for her roles in movies with titles like "Necromancy", "The Legend Of Hell House", and "Satan's School For Girls!" She's pretty demonic even at this young age!!

Then it's time for that really fun and oh so perfect nephew Miles to come home!! Last time we saw Martin Stephens was in"Village Of The Damned"!!! Is there just something not quite innocent about these kids??

Now tell me this isn't confusing, The housekeeper Miss Jessel is portrayed by Clytie Jessop!! Jessel up and Jessop tight, tonight, isn't that a song by Kool and The Gang or somebody??

So, everything's pretty cool, but then after she gets comfortable, Miss Giddens starts to see strange things!!

Deborah Kerr displays full well the reasons she was nominated for at least six oscars in her career, here, in what amounts to almost a solo outing as Miss Giddens! It's a very strong female lead role, and she pulls it off effortlessly, going from somewhat shy and naive to headstrong and in control!

Miles and Flora both have some real issues, they will just zone out when you're talking to them, and his imaginary friends are more real than most!

I tell you I saw a person right over there, don't you see them???

No, I don't see anything!!

Child prodigy, musician, and composer George Auric showed an interest for avant garde music as a young man which led him to have friends like Erik Satie and Jean Cocteau, and a place in history, as one of the most prolific film composers of all time! Here we have a traditional sounding piece mixed with my favorite, the sounds of nature!!

ATOMIC RULERS Of The World / Japan - 1964 / Music by Michiaki Watanabe

Welp, look like Tabonga giving Starman last send off back to Emerald Planet for good tonight. Goo'bye, old pal...

And, if music sound familiar, that because composer is awesome Mr. Michiaki Watanabe and he do all the Starman flick!!.. By self!

Okay, give Ralphie second to get in room... Now, finally by big red button... Hit it!.. ONE MORE TIME!

When Tabonga say 'atomic' then Tabonga mean 'atomic!'

If you not know story of Starman' special watch, then, you need to watch this, ATTACK FROM SPACE, EVIL BRAIN FROM OUTER SPACE or INVADERS FROM SPACE!!

Anyway, before he go kick bad guy' ass, Starman help out airliner in trouble with tail fin!

Now, that one damn good trick, there!!

Bad guy dude try to hide from Starman.

Starman can stop car in tracks...

Atomic maniacs runnin' show from Texas!

And, Starman not need help, he take care of ever'bloody by self!

JOURNEY TO THE CENTER OF TIME - John Barber (Music Editor) - "Time Warp" (1967)

You know stuff, like mole persons and black lagoon creatures is all right, but is it better if a movie is cheap as Hell, but in colour? Whaddaya think?? Tonight's film would be a prime example!!

From 1967, it's "Journey To The Center OF Time" starring perennial Dungeon favorite, the amazing Anthony Eisley and a lady whose talent is only overshadowed by her beauty, the utterly fantastic Gigi Perreau!!!

"How long does my Father have to be dead before you bury him?" That's what classic A-Hole played by Scott Brady needs to know!!

What's really important; I think the Pop-Tarts are ready!!!

What the heck does RAE stand for???

It's okay, it won't matter in about two seconds!!!

Why in the world are they watching "Angry Red Planet" on the big TV?

The laid off construction workers of the future show up just in time to create havoc!

In the future you're not special unless you have your own pedestal to stand on, so that your admiring environs can gaze up at you wistfully from below!

I can't figure it out, and you can't figure it out, and Anthony says it's not even worth trying!!!!

Gigi just keeps standing around looking as hot as a red hot flame, and that's hot enough!!

Long before the late Robert Palmer thought of it, the producers of this film knew how to have a winner, get rid of all the ugly dudes and surround yourself with women!!!! Right On!!

There doesn't seem to be a specific composer for the score of "Journey To The Center Of Time," but a Mr. John Barber, gets credit as music editor in his only outing. Back when we wrote about "The Mighty Gorga", we knew we'd heard the music before, but couldn't identify the source, well, now we know, it's this film, and it's no coincidence that el cheapo recycler, producer, director David L. Hewitt was indeed the man responsible for both!!!
