Hmmmm....
Kolchak still rocks! You gotta give 'em some slack for 1970's tv level effects; but the stories are great. I liked how they went back to the actual legends for the monsters; such as the zombie, or the Rakshasa.

Just watched The Night Strangler last night. That has to be my favorite "episode", even though it was a movie. I LOVE the secret, undiscovered part of underground Seattle. How many of us would have loved to discover some place like that when we were kids!
Does anyone think this will ever get released on Blu-Ray?
I doubt it personally but just wondering if anyone has any insight. I already own the standard definition DVD's and actually don't own a Blu-ray player yet. If this ever get's released on Blu-Ray, I may take the plunge.
I would seriously doubt that the studio would spend the money to clean these up for a blu-ray release. I can't see it selling well enough to keep that from being a loss, and I am betting the studio would think the same, even if this would pop up on their radar. I'd be all over it if they did though. However, this is one of the few movies/shows that doesn't really bother me all that much. The old grainy picture gives it that 70's feel and I love to watch it regardless.
Hot Child in the City
One of my all-time favorite series! My favorite episodes were the Zombie, the Swamp Monster, the headless Motorcyclist, and the Rakshasa (where he shoots "Miss Emily" in the gut with an arrow!)
Moonstone Comics has been doing a Kolchak comic book for awhile now, it's quality is up & down, but hey, it's the real deal not that imposter from a couple years ago. Best so far was the meeting of Kolchak & Barnabas Collins. They just did an adaption of the Night Strangler movie. The did the first movie a couple years ago.
Kolchak: the Night Stalker
I always thought they picked the actor for the first movie as a nod to Dark Shadows as the vampire looks quite a bit like Barnabas Collins.
The Rakshasa episode was Horror in the Heights and I believe the headless motorcycle dude ep was Chopper
I really doubt it.Originally Posted by DCSTING
I think the only reason they even finally got around to a DVD release was because the remake TV series that was starting around that time.
Thought they could get some mileage out of it then.
