America Gets KISS'd on "The Paul Lynde Halloween Special" 40 Years Ago Today

The world of network television was littered with variety shows and special presentations in the 1970s. There were only three networks to choose from and each one vied for your attention on a nightly basis. These celebrity-filled occasions were even more popular around any holiday. Halloween was no different and comedian, voice artist, and actor Paul Lynde knew exactly what he needed to attract the millions of rockers and teens to his Halloween-themed special.

“The Paul Lynde Halloween Special” aired October 29th, 1976 on ABC and millions of fans were treated to a very rare television appearance of the Hottest Band in the World, KISS. The electrifying face-painted foursome were perfect as a musical guest for a show marking a season filled with costumes and masks.

KISS hit the stage of “The Paul Lynde Halloween Special” after being introduced by Margaret Hamilton, who reprised her role as the Wicked Witch of the West for the first time ever since “The Wizard of Oz”. After the band descends in a gated elevator, Paul, Gene, and Ace strapped on their instruments and Peter climbed behind the drumkit and energetically launched into a rousing performance of “Detroit Rock City” donning their “Destroyer”-era costumes. The song ended in a blaze of fire and exploding guitar speakers as the crowd went wild. They also played “Beth” and “King of the Nighttime World” before being introduced to Paul Lynde and exchanging some witty banter with the host.

Forty years later, “The Paul Lynde Halloween Special” is still a shining example of why the world fell in love with KISS and has amassed an army of loyal fans who are still going strong four decades later. The band were reaching the peak of their popularity at the time and their dedication to putting on a great show were extremely evident. KISS still has that same fire in their eyes as they take the stage in 2016.

KISS's performance of "King of the Nighttime World" and the band meeting Paul Lynde can be seen on their DVD "KISSOLOGY: The Ultimate KISS Collection Volume 1 - 1974-1977", which is available for purchase right here. “The Paul Lynde Halloween Special” can be bought on DVD in it's entirety here. You can also watch it online here.

Comic Book Review: The Lost Boys #1

Writer Tim Seeley (Grayson, Nightwing) has tapped into the spirit and excitement of Joel Schumacher's classic 80's horror treat. The Lost Boys #1 successfully picks up right where the original movie ended with all the characters we grew up watching battle vampires. I wish the same could be said about Artist Scott Godlewski's (The Dark and Bloody, Copperhead) depictions of the key characters. Aside from Edgar Frog, the rest of the characters barely resemble the actors who played them. Maybe DC and Vertigo couldn't get the rights to use Corey Haim, Jason Patric, and many of the other key players' likenesses.

I'm interested in seeing how this new series might tie into the two film sequels and comic book followup released a few years back. My attention has definitely been grabbed by an entertaining and nostalgic debut issue.

Santa Carla, California is on edge. The eccentric coastal town and haven for the undead was finally returning to “normal” after its last supernatural scuffle left the local coven’s head vampire dead and gave newcomers Michael and Sam Emerson a housewarming both violent and bizarre. Now the brothers must once again team up with militant vampire hunters Edgar and Allan Frog when a new gang of ruthless, stunning, life-sucking nightcrawlers known as the Blood Belles emerges from the aftermath to collect Michael’s love interest and their lost sister, Star.

The Lost Boys #1 is suggested for mature readers. It contains violence and gore, adult situations, smoking, and frightening and intense scenes. There's really nothing too shocking in this first issue that merits such a rating, but I'm sure they're just getting prepared for future ones.

The Lost Boys #1 is available now in print and digital editions.

Blu-ray Review: "The Purge: Election Year"

The main reason I find "The Purge" movies so appealing is because each one is a unique take on the same concept. "The Purge: Election Year" successfully continues that trend by exploring the politics and religion behind the deadliest night of the year. Graphic and disturbing scenes of carnage leave you asking questions like, "What if something like this was real?" and "Could civilization really sink this low?" An even more frightening question is, " What would I do to survive and protect myself and my family if the Purge were real?"

As a young girl, Sen. Charlie Roan (Elizabeth Mitchell) survived the annual night of lawlessness that took the lives of her family members. As a presidential candidate, Roan is determined to end the yearly tradition of blood lust once and for all. When her opponents hatch a deadly scheme, the senator finds herself trapped on the streets of Washington, D.C., just as the latest Purge gets underway. Now, it's up to Leo Barnes (Frank Grillo), her head of security, to keep her alive during the next twelve hours of mayhem in "The Purge: Election Year".

"The Purge: Election Year" is rated R for disturbing bloody violence and strong language. The gore factor is rather high and some it is very graphic. Frightening and intense scenes of people in jeopardy also provides a dose of anxiety.

Special Features for the Blu-ray edition of "The Purge: Election Year" include a digital copy and UltraViolet, deleted scenes "Inside The Purge" and "Character Spotlight: Leo" featurettes.

"The Purge: Election Year" is available now on Blu-ray, DVD, and as a digital download.

Blu-ray Review: "Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Out of the Shadows"

"Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Out of the Shadows" adds classic characters to this electrifying sequel that helps reflect its comic book and cartoon source materials. My big complaint is a musical score that sounds like leftover bits and pieces of the "Transformers" movies mixed with every cliche song used for a big-budget movie from the last thirty years. Yeah, some of the CGI is a little much and stands out, but if you check your head at the door there's a lot of fun to be had here. Aside from that, we get a loud bombastic explosion of a film that only Michael Bay and company could create... and yes, that's a good thing here.

The turtles face a new challenge when Shredder (Brian Tee) escapes from custody and joins forces with Baxter Stockman (Tyler Perry), a mad scientist who plans to use a serum to take over the world. Along for the ride are Bebop (Gary Anthony Williams) and Rocksteady (Sheamus", two dimwitted henchmen who provide plenty of muscle. Luckily, the turtles have their own allies in April O'Neil (Megan Fox), Vernon Fenwick (Will Arnett) and Casey Jones (Stephen Amell), a hockey-masked vigilante. As the pizza-loving heroes prepare for battle, the notorious Krang (voiced by Brad Garrett) also emerges to pose an even greater threat in "Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Out of the Shadows".

The Blu-ray edition of "Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Out of the Shadows" contains three deleted scenes. It also has several featurettes entitled "We Are Family", "Whoa! Expanding the Turtleverse", "House Party", "It's Tricky: Inside the Van", "ILM -- The Effects Beneath the Shell" and "Did You Catch That? Turtle Eggs!"

"Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Out of the Shadows" is rated PG-13 for sci-fi action violence. It also contains profanity, alcohol use, and frightening and intense scenes.

"Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Out of the Shadows" is available now on 4K UltraHD, 3D Blu-ray, Blu-ray, DVD, and as a Digital download.

Comic Book Review: KISS #1

Aside from onstage brandishing their instruments amidst a backdrop of explosions, fire, and smoke, there's no place more appropriate for KISS to be at home than starring in their own comic book. Amy Chu's KISS #1 is proof that there are still creative channels to travel down for Starchild, the Demon, the Spaceman, and the Catman even after several previous comic book adventures through Marvel, Dark Horse, Platinum Image, IDW, and even Archie Comics. Her tale of mysticism and science fiction picks up the perfect amount of momentum in the first issue to keep readers interested in coming back for more.

KISS #1 opens in a futuristic world without sun and a world without heroes. Four young friends embark on a dangerous mission - to uncover the truth about the mysterious Council of Elders and their underground home, the city of Blackwell. But first they need some help from the past...

Amy Chu pens KISS #1. Kewber Baal provides the striking art.

KISS #1 is rated T+ for Teen Plus. I'm really not entirely sure why. There's less here than we see in any of the mainstream DC Comics titles. I guess we'll see how things unfold in issue #2.

KISS #1 is available now in print and digital editions.

Blu-ray Review: "Alice Through the Looking Glass"

"Alice Through the Looking Glass” is a humorous and commendable attempt at a sequel to Tim Burton’s underrated “Alice in Wonderland”. At the same time, it feels a bit unnecessary and gets tedious at times. There were moments where it felt like the plot and story were being stretched thin to cover more running time. Sacha Baron Cohen does his best to channel Peter Sellers’ Inspector Clouseau while Helena Bonham Carter provides some big-headed laughs.

In “Alice Through the Looking Glass,” our hero (Mia Wasikowska) returns to the whimsical world of Underland. She arrives to find she must travel back in time to save the Mad Hatter (Johnny Depp) and his family from the clutches of the Jabberwocky and an unknown enemy. The Red Queen (Helena Bonham Carter) and Time (Sacha Baron Cohen) are hot on her trail to stop history from being changed or worse.

“Alice Through the Looking Glass” is rated PG for fantasy action / peril and some language. There are a few scenes that might be too frightening or intense for younger viewers. I don’t recall any real profanity, although characters use words like “idiot” and “bloody”.

Bonus material for the Blu-ray edition of "Alice Through the Looking Glass" include featurettes like "A Stitch in Time: Costuming Wonderland", "Behind the Music Video", "Behind the Looking Glass", "Time On...", "Alice Goes Through The Looking Glass: A Scene Peeler", "Alice Goes Through Time's Castle: A Scene Peeler", and "Characters of Underland". It also contains the "Just Like Fire" Music Video by P!nk and filmmaker audio commentary by Director James Bobin.

“Alice Through the Looking Glass” is available now in Blu-ray, DVD, and Digital editions.

Blu-ray Review: "Carrie (Collector's Edition)"

Brian DePalma’s “Carrie” is one of the greatest horror movies in cinema history. Whether or not he stayed completely true to Stephen King’s novel, the film perfectly captures the harsh world of being an odd duck amongst the popular kids in high school society. I should know, since I was one of those poor souls. You truly agonize for the title character and almost revel in the vengeance she unleashes upon her tormentors. It’s a truly tragic tale that will leave viewers feeling a variety of emotions from fury to fear and sadness.

Carrie (Sissy Spacek) is a high school loner with no confidence and no friends. She also has no idea as to the extent of her secret powers of telekinesis. But when her psychotic mother (Piper Laurie) and sadistic classmates finally go too far, the once-shy teen becomes an unrestrained, vengeance-seeking powerhouse who, with the help of her "special gift," causes a frenzy of blood, fire, and brimstone.

The 2-Disc Collector's Edition of “Carrie” contains loads of satisfying bonus material. Disc One contains a new 4K scan of the original negative, original theatrical trailer, and "Carrie" franchise trailer gallery.

Disc Two includes new "More Acting 'Carrie'" – featuring interviews with Nancy Allen, Betty Buckley, William Katt, Piper Laurie, Edie McClurg and P.J.

Soles and Art Director Jack Fisk and Director Brian De Palma; "Visualizing 'Carrie'" – interviews with Brian De Palma, Jack Fisk, Lawrence D. Cohen, and Paul Hirsch; a look at "Carrie: The Musical"; TV spots; radio spots; still gallery – rare behind-the-scenes photos, posters and lobby cards; and Stephen King and the Evolution of "Carrie" text gallery.

“Carrie” is rated R for sexual references and nudity, violence and gore, profanity, alcohol and smoking, and frightening and intense scenes.

“Carrie (Collector’s Edition)” is available now on Blu-ray.

Blu-ray Review: "The Thing (Collector's Edition)"

John Carpenter’s “The Thing” is still one of the finest examples of awe-inspiring special effects wizardry three decades after its premiere. It’s the sort of film that fully draws you in through an engaging story and impressive sets and atmosphere. A variety of different types of scares gives the movie even more depth and appeal - from jumps to gross outs.

A twelve-man research team at a remote Antarctic research station discovers an alien buried in the snow for over 100,000 years. Soon unfrozen, the form-changing alien wreaks havoc, creates terror… and becomes one of them in “The Thing”.

The 2-Disc Collector’s Edition of “The Thing” contains a healthy portion of great special features. Disc One includes a new 2K scan of the interpositive supervised and approved by Director Of Photography Dean Cundey, a new 4.1 audio mix created from the original 70MM six track Dolby Stereo soundtrack (5.1 audio mix also included), new audio commentary with Director Of Photography Dean Cundey, new audio commentary with Co-producer Stuart Cohen, audio commentary by Director John Carpenter and Actor Kurt Russell, a teaser trailer, theatrical trailers (U.S. and German), TV Spots, radio spots, and a still gallery (Behind-the-scenes photos, posters and lobby cards).

Disc Two includes "Requiem For A Shape Shifter" – an interview with Director John Carpenter in conversation with Filmmaker Mick Garris; new "The Men Of Outpost 31" – interviews with Keith David, Wilford Brimley, David Clennon, Thomas Waites, Peter Maloney, Richard Masur and Joel Polis; new "Assembling And Assimilation" – an interview with Editor Todd Ramsay; new "Behind The Chameleon: The Sights Of 'The Thing'" – interviews with Visual Effects Artists Peter Kuran and Susan Turner, Special Make-up Effects Artist Rob Burman, Brian Wade and Stop Motion Animators Randall William Cook and Jim Aupperle; new "Sounds From The Cold" – interviews with Supervising Sound Editor David Lewis Yewdall and Special Sound Effects Designer Alan Howarth; new "Between The Lines" – an interview With Novelization Author Alan Dean Foster; new "Back Into The Cold: A Return To The Shooting Locations Of 'The Thing'" – an animated photo gallery narrated by Todd Cameron of Outpost31.com; new "The Art of Mike Ploog" gallery; "John Carpenter's 'The Thing': Terror Takes Shape" – An 80-minute documentary on the making of "The Thing" featuring interviews with John Carpenter, Kurt Russell, Special Effects Make-up Designer Rob Bottin, Legendary Matte Artist Albert Whitlock plus members of the cast and crew; Network TV Broadcast Version Of "The Thing"; outtakes; vintage featurettes from the electronic press kit featuring interviews with John Carpenter, Kurt Russell and Rob Bottin; vintage featurettes – "The Making of A Chilling Tale" and "The Making Of 'The Thing'"; vintage product reel – contains a condensed version of the film with additional footage not in the film; vintage behind-the-scenes footage; and annotated production archive – production art and storyboards, location scouting, special make-up effects, and post production.

“The Thing” is rated R for violence and gore, profanity, alcohol / drugs / smoking, and frightening and intense scenes. There’s plenty of gore and goo to wince at. The jump scares will definitely send some viewers jettisoned out of their seats. I took my son to see it in the theater when he was about 10 and I had to pull his head out of the ceiling at times.

“The Thing (Collector’s Edition)” is available now on Blu-ray.
