Svengoolie

The host Svengoolie talks about various horror movies while showing the movies, one per episode, and gives an introduction to them and performs an act during the commercial breaks. One of the constant tropes is that he will ask a question, then cut back to the movie in a way that looks like the character is answering that question. He also does a deep dive on the early careers of the major actors, and also what has happened to them since then.

The Land Unknown (1957)

This land is your land this land is … dino’s land?! Commander Alan Roberts is just your average US Navy commander taking his small helicopter crew on an exploratory mission into Antarctica to study oddly warm waters for the region. Pilot and geophysicist Lt. Jack Carmen is at the helm … or yoke … or whatever they use to fly a helicopter along with trusty machinist Steve Miller (the machinist one, not the musician one). Margaret Hathaway is the intrepid reporter along for the ride and hoping to get the story of her life. Ask and you shall receive Maragaret! Because your helicopter takes an unplanned trip to an unknown land right there in Antarctica that’s full of prehistoric dinosaurs, tropical plants, and a mad scientist named Hunter (not the Fred Dryer one) who hasn’t seen people in a really, really long time. Tonight, on MeTV - The Sven Squad are premiering 1957’s “The Land Unknown” on House of Svengoolie.
