I have such an affection for the UHF channels of the 70s and 80s! Quirky, unexpected programming, limited but creative production values, and local commercials! We had a channel 56 in LA, KDOC. That was the channel of late-night dance parties, regional pro wrestling, bizarro hosts like Wally George!

Wow, awesome!

Takes me back .... better days

Never forget Dale Dormans echoe voice announcements of creature double feature😅..great memories

Oh yeah, if you caught a vampire, Godzilla combo, that was a good Saturday.

I like the one about the army dude who gets radiation from a bomb test and grows a hundred feet and his girlfriend has to leave him. What was the name of that movie ?

Hypnotic music...like a 40 year time machine to the past. Lived in East Providence, RI in the late 70s, very early 80s. That music just brings back the whole mood of Saturdays as a kid.

Dale doorman! I remember! Wish they had something like this for todays kids! Subscribed 👍

You know, growing up in the Boston area in the 70's was GREAT ... get up at 8 to watch Bugs Bunny cartoons for 2 hours, then Candlepin Bowling with Don Gillis, then Creature Double Feature after that. Then ... after that, watch Wide World of Sports (on Channel 5 / ABC). Sunday mornings were all about Captain Bob, Davey and Goliath, and the Three Stooges. Just fantastic memories ...

Did they change the music later? I watched in RI and it doesn't sound familiar.

The Japanese blu ray is the greatest one

Saturdays in RI as a kid. Cartoons, Creature Double Feature, then 5PM Mass. Sporadic outside activity interspersed in there somewhere.

"Creature Double Feature" on Channel 56: It's where I discovered so many of my favourite Godzilla & Toho Studios movies. And Gamera, Daimajin & Daiei Studios movies. The Toho universe including: Godzilla; Minya/Minilla (NO don't call him that hannabarberra travesty); Megalon; Gigan, King Ghidorah, Mecha-Godzilla, Hedorah The Smog Monster, etc! (And some USA giant monster movies...Them! (giant ants); giant Tarantula; "Village of the Giants" (giant teenagers); Amazing Collosal Man & War of the Colossal Beast (kinda a giant school janitor). Channel 56! (Channel 38 played great Hollywood movies in the evenings, on "The Movie Loft". )

Wow. This takes me back. I remember having to adjust the rabbit ears to get a semi-watchable image. Fueled my love of Godzilla that is still in me today.

Question, there was another opening to this program where there is someone jumping out of a vat of wax. Does anyone know what movie that scene is from? Thanx.

every satday after cartoons! Chris Pelletier from Lewiston , Maine

My grandparents lived in Newton and whenever I'd visit in the 70s and 80s, my cousins and I would be glued to 56 and 38 all day. Then we'd get kicked out so our brains wouldn't rot. Didn't work... Anyone remember the "Inch by inch, step by step, slowly we turned, 3 Stooges Marathon"?

Oh Lordy. I remember. This and Dana Hersey on channel 38 for the movie loft

I recorded so many of those. That and WSBK in Boston

And suddenly, I'm 9 years old again.

I watched this with my grandmother on Saturdays when I was a kid. This brings me back to wonderful times spent with my grandmother.

I remember this. I kind of miss that jingle, "Here in Boston, the kid's choice is, Channel 56!"

I heard this music when a bulletin went off during COVID.

Comparing it to the bootleg DVD the Blu-ray seems to have its saturation increased a little bit more as a tad bit more sharpness

This broke my brain back in the 70s!!

Good acid was going around when this was produced

Never be forgotten wlvi channel 56 and tv 38 great memories as a kid

This is where it started for me growing up as little kid in the 80 s in new bedford ma south of boston saturday s 1 to 4 wlvi channel 56 boston this is where i first saw all the classic monster horror movies from studios universal hammer films toho productions daimei productions where gamera is from awesome times growing up as a kid saturday morning tv cartoons on network tv and then channel 56 i even remember the times wwf wrestling at 11 noon time soul train 1 to 4 creature double feature and then i remember star search with ed mcmahon on network tv memories as a kid brings back tears and joy in the 80 s

Kung Fu theater was always on after CDF! And I seem to recall midget wrestling on as well....

Tocatta by Emerson , lake, and, Palmer!

Whoever created the music for this opening montage is a genius. That has to be the most panic-inducing monster music I can think of. As an 8 year old watching this, I was completely entranced. This should be the music played at the end of the world.

Even though the movies were mostly crap low budget B movies, just the intro of Creature double feature scared the crap out of you if you were a kid!

The memories of spending a saturday watching monsters and aliens.

I just checked you tube to see if anyone had put this trailer up if creature double feature lol . Growing up in Brockton mass creature double feature was on every Saturday afternoon in the mid 1970s. My little brother would hide under the table when the into song came on

LOVED CDF! And Channel 56, 38, 27, 44. Seems like such a longggggggg time ago...

That is Emerson, Lake and Palmer in the background.

This would come at 12noon on TV56. I think Wrestling was on either before or after this. In the evening time Dance Fever would come on.

This literally saved my sanity. We lived in the cultural shithold of new hampshire. Antenna TV is now dead. Thanks, republican greed cunts.

A chill just ran up my spine

Id give anything to go back and watch war of the gargantuas for the first time again... so many great memories!!! Didnt they use Dale Dormans voice on this?

Loved watching this in the 70s at Noon on Saturday's as a kid. Emerson Lake and Palmer played theme to the show and yes WLVI 56 and WSBK 38 are outstanding TV stations.

I miss it.

Who else is here because of the Joe rogan/Rob zombie podcast?

JRE brought me here.

I remember this like yesterday

I don't remember the colors being quite that... um, vivid..

Grew up in NH and my friends and I would plan our Saturday around creature double feature. I miss the 70s

Good memories with me and my good friend, Kevin, all ecstatic over Godzilla on creature double feature. North Beacon St. Brighton. Good old times! Miss you, Kevin. Hope you are well, my brother.

CUT, TAKI TOO THEY RR SMAALLI
