Thriller Double Feature 80's Detroit TV Commercial

Early inspiration. Before there was the Chiller Double Feature, there was the Thriller. Classic Detroit television on Channel 20 from the early 80's. Now all we need is some Scream Theatre & Saturday Night Dead footage.

Seriously who is the idiot that marked me as spam? I thought since I had the damn intro that would be of some interest to somebody but I guess not.

@ronnyraven Was not me. I thought it was cool.

Ahh yes! That would be the Chiller Double Feature intro. The hunt is on for that one. Used to see '' Don't Look In The Basement'' & ''Zombie Lake'' quite often on that. Someone told me they have Scream Theatre footage but have yet to produce it.. we will see. Stay tuned my freaks!

@TheRealSpectre Any news about Scream Theater? I would die to see it!

@paisan357. Thanks for mentioning "Martial Arts Theater" starring Charlie Lum. I have been searching for clips from that show for years !

@kyokogodai...I think you are describing a scene from "Food of the Gods" ('76). If memory serves, "Thriller Double Feature" on WXON 20 never aired this film. However, "Scream Theater" on WXYZ 7 did.

I'll be 35 in November. I'm from San Antonio, Texas and we had something like this called the "Saturday Night Shocker!" But, it aired on Saturday midnight. Pretty creepy for a 10 year old! BTW, the commercials during air time would be of a local comic book store. lol. memories.
