kixie, your post about nostalgia this morning must have had more effect than i realized LOL The lure of a bin of $4.99 dvds sucked me in today, not only were the movies $4.99, they had two movies on a double sided disk for that. And they were all B, C and D movies from the 60's and 70's, most of which i'd never heard of.
But.....
A blast from the past stood up on the top of the heap and beckoned. It's "Go Ask Alice" from 1973. This is about a teenage girl who gets hooked on drugs after succumbing to peer pressure. I remembered liking it but had never seen it since then i don't think. There it was! And did you know it was an Andy Griffith movie? I didn't remember that but when i saw the dvd cover, it rings a bell. What doesn't ring a bell was the fact that Bill Shatner is in it too! This has *got* to be a laugh if nothing else. The other movie on the disk is The Strangers In 7A, another Andy Griffith movie from 1972 and is about a middle age couple who meet a young woman who is interested in renting an apartment and they then get taken hostage by a group of young hooligans that arrive uninvited. I expect lots of teeth gnashing and eye bulging from this one. It'll be interesting to see if Alice is as good as i thought it was back then.
The other movie i bought, for $12.99 is Excalibur. I love it, cheesy and overdone though it is. It'll make a nice contrast to Mists of Avalon, don't you think ? :)
