A Cold Night's Death

Directed by Jerrold Freedman, 1973


Two scientists suspect that there is someone other than their research primates inhabiting their polar station. One is dead and a third appears to be under some sort of spell.


American made for television (ABC) psychological horror-thriller starring Robert Culp, Eli Wallach and some furry control freaks out for revenge against humans in a remote laboratory apparently with a supernatural presence empowering them.




 






Outrage

Directed by Richard T. Heffron, 1973


A group of spoilt rich teenagers have been terrorising their neighbourhood in California for three years. The parents don't seem to have a problem with their behaviour and object to being held responsible. Although they have been getting away with murder, literally, the police do nothing about it. A few months after moving into the area, a veterinary surgeon and his wife, Jim and Muriel Kiler (Robert Culp and Marlyn Mason) are targeted. Their house is torched and bombed, bricks are thrown through their windows, and their dog is run over. They are terrorised regularly just for fun and nothing is done about it. The parents of those involved are named in a local community meeting and walk out. The people remaining do do not vote to bring more police in to patrol the area. And one boy takes the rap fo the initial assault thus allowing his friends to get off with zero convinctions. Only a worthless warning. Which they ignore. The attacks continue. And Mr Kiler finally tells his wife that her method isn't working and that the only way to deal with these youngsters is to use violence. he goes round to each property to see how they like it: smashed windows, wrecked cars, hostile threats. The result is that no complaints are ever made to the police and the violence stops immediately. Based on a true story in America.

Time Walker

Directed by Tom Kennedy, 1982


  
A green fungus with a potent, acidic effect is said to have been responsible for the death of Tutankhamen. The premise is that the Egyptians buried an alien in the tomb with the young king after he had defended himself against them with unusual might. A professor in America is given the task of examining the sarcophagus and unwittingly revives the alien inside by taking x-rays. Exactly why the alien was preserved through mummification remains a mystery. Anyway, some toad at the university goes and steals five diamond-like spheres from the side of the box and gives them away and tries to sell them. The alien is therefore forced to go in search of each one so he can get the hell out of there and travel back to his own planet or wherever the fuck he comes from. Alas, his popularity plummets overnight as a few deaths and an amputated hand ensue due to the green fungus infected them and also the sheer might of this being. The professor ends up taking a bullet for the misunderstood time traveller who then decides to take him with him.


Starring Ben Murphy as Prof. Douglas McCadden

Mummy by Beatrice Morabito

The Internecine Project

Directed by Ken Hughes, 1974

A retired agent devises a cunning plan to eliminate those who know too much about his past. He gets them to bump each other off.



Starring James Coburn as Professor Robert Elliot
Lee Grant as Jean Robertson
Harry Andrews as Bert Parsons
Ian Hendry as Alex Hellman
Michael Jayston as David Baker
Christiane Krüger as Christina Larsson
Keenan Wynn as E. J. Farnsworth


"Splitting his time as a financial professor and coordinator for a shady spy ring, Robert Elliot (Coburn) is offered a powerful new position as the presidential economic advisor. However, at the behest of his rich and corrupt patron, fat cat E.J. Farnsworth (Wynn), he must first dispatch his four operatives to cover his tracks. The plan to leave no one alive becomes more complicated with the involvement of an intrepid reporter (Grant, shot with more soft filters than Cybill Shepherd) who harbors romantic feelings for Elliot but also wants to bring both him and Farnsworth down. As plans for the quartet of complicated murders commence by pitting the spies against each other, Elliot must find a way to keep his hands clean at an increasingly high cost." (MondoDigital).








"Former secret agent Robert Elliot (James Coburn) is about to become the personal consultant of the American President. There is only one problem - the four people where were witnesses to his corrupt and dirty past. Every one of them could break his career. Elliot invents a very ingenious strategy to get rid of all four of them: his scheme is to get them all to unwittingly kill each other in the course of a single night." (MyReviewer).
