It Conquered Hollywood - The Story of AIP/
Ballyhoo: The Hollywood Sideshow
2001 USA color
''This is the story of 500 forgettable movies. And 2 unforgettable men.'' So reads an
onscreen legend at the beginning of ``It Conquered Hollywood! The Story of American
International Pictures''. From ``The Fast and the Furious'' in 1954 to ``The Amityville
Horror'' in 1979 (more or less), American International Pictures was the leading
producer and distributer of teen-oriented exploitation titles.
Then, Frankie Avalon hosts "Ballyhoo: The Hollywood Sideshow", a wondrous tour of
3-D glasses, electric-wired seats, life-insurance policies in case of death by fright, and
other great hucksterisms that were more creative than the movies they promoted!
Avalon then give us a tribute to filmaker, writer, artist, and movie fan John Waters, the
"Bad Boy of Baltimore"!

Horror Castle (aka The Virgin of Nuremberg)
1963 Italy/USA Color
A haunted castle on the Rhine is the setting for this Euro-horror movie with
Christopher Lee as the terribly scarred chauffeur/caretaker. Georges Riviere
arrives at the family castle with his American wife (Rossana Podesta) and the
mysterious mutilations begin. Some believe a 300-year-old-executioner is using a
still-intact and well-supplied torture chamber. The truth about the deaths turns out
to be related to more recent tortures - Nazis.
With a beginning that is strikingly similar to the opening of Bloody Pit of Horror,
this gothic shocker has more creepy atmosphere than most, with a hearty helping
of gore thrown in for good measure. Includes theatrical trailer.

The Wild World of Batwoman (aka She Was A Hippy Vampire)
1966 USA b&w
This is said to be Jerry Warren's worst film, which would really make it unbelievable.
He was sued for using the name Batwoman, so he changed the title to She Was A
Hippie Vampire. Smart move, Jerry. He lost so much cash fighting the lawsuit that
he never again blessed us with his cinematic charms. Very few people have seen
this picture. A few more would like to. Slightly overage Katherin Victor stars in a
tight black costume with a cheap mask, teased hair, and a rubber bat glued to her
chest. She and her batgirls battle Dr. Neon and Ratfink who are after a hearing
aid/atomic bomb and use laughter pills.
From a squeeky clean digital master, includes Jerry Warren Trailer Reel. For
weirdos only.
