I had a VHS video in the early 80s and I used to hire this video over and over again from the video shop. Who was the girl in the front seat? I was in love with her!!!

She was a very nice girl who worked at the Boardwalk. She was assigned to us while we were shooting to make sure everything went smoothly, so we put her in the film. The family-run Boardwalk is a wonderful connection to the past...and it continues to be run very smoothly today. A great place for young and old alike.

Great video. I love it. Vincent Price was the best

@ronssexybikerbae Glad you liked it. Yes, Vinny was the best. And a very nice man.

This was on ITV in 1982, filling in for a live sports programme which ended early. I recorded some of it and would love to have the whole show. The end tune is the same as the BBC Grandstand theme.

You can often find it cheap on eBay. Glad you enjoyed it!

@luckyzert My mom is a huge fan of his and raised me on him. He's awesome! My mom and Dad both met him and said he was very down to earth.

Many thanks for reply. I live in Yorkshire England. Back then as I said it was one of my favorite videos. VHS was just coming out. There was no internet, I dont think ZX Spectrums were invented yet. I would not of believed that I would one day hear from the guy who filmed America Screams. The power of the internet!!! Thanks again.

Yes, I was very fortunate to work with him. He was so kind and so polite, even to me (a nobody). Thanks for the Bette Davis lead - another great Price clip.
