Mission Statement: 2

Where else was I going to see Knightriders, Carnival Of Souls, Grim Prairie Tales, Tracks and Walker? Will any of these films ever be shown on TV again? I guess with the advent of dvds  it now means its pretty cheap to release films now and you can usually get hold of these lost cult classics quite easily now, but back then I'd try and cram 4 Moviedrome movies onto 1VHS  taped in Long Play. I can still remember the first time I saw Rabid as of many on this list and its no coincidence that 2 of my top 3 films of all time are on this list (Mishima and Performance)...Thank you Fantastic Mr Cox.
