That alternative cast and director made my jaw drop!
BTW, I'm loving Easter Bonnet Week so far, Moira.

Omigosh! Susan Slade rocks. DON'T miss the special effects scene with the baby! And you're going to want to kill to live in the Slade's jaw-dropping "shack" by the sea in Carmel. Connie really had to pull out the stops on this one, and Troy came equipped with his red windbreaker, just like a Ken doll who happened to be writing The Great American Novel in his spare time. The glorious production values are dazzling, but that script, oy! Have fun, King.kingrat wrote:I'm eagerly anticipating Susan Slade tonight. Moira has recommended this as a classic Bad Movie. Troy Donahue and Connie Stevens. Lots of teen angst.
Sunday at 6:30 a.m. EDT (3:30 a.m. PDT) offers The Silver Chalice. This Biblical epic stars a young and handsome Paul Newman who, at this point in his career, is almost as inept as our fave Troy. Fortunately, he got a second chance and he learned very quickly. If I remember correctly, Virginia Mayo and Jack Palance are a lot of fun. Palance is Simon Magus, a magician or miracle worker who was a rival of Jesus, and Virginia plays his girlfriend and assistant.
