Nancy Drew... Reporter (1939)

Nancy Drew... Reporter is a 1939 Mystery/Comedy based on the YA book series by publisher, Edward Stratemeyer.  It was a companion to the popular Hardy Boys Mysteries series of the day.  The Nancy Drew books were ghostwritten by numerous authors under the pseudonym, Carolyn Keene.

Nancy Drew... Reporter stars Bonita Granville as the titular character who enters the town newspaper's amateur reporter contest, and must clear a girl of Murder charges.  The film series was fairly well-received, and this is just one of several Nancy Drew Mysteries Warner Brothers made during this time.

The character has persisted throughout the decades, and the film series was recently revived to lukewarm reviews and reception.  The Nancy Drew Mysteries movie franchise was also revived in the 1970s, 1990s, and again in 2002 and 2007.

Celebrate Halloween with George Romero's Night of the Living Dead

Channel-B.TV celebrates this Halloween with a viewing of George Romero's classic, Night of the Living Dead. An Apocalyptic horror movie about a world overrun by zombies which spawned a franchise, and provided the foundation for a sub-genre which thrives even today.

Romero's 1968 film was originally peddled out of the trunk of his car, Night of the Living Dead has since gone on to become one of the most successful independent films ever made. Unfortunately, he saw little profit from it thanks to his ignorance of distribution rights and bad business dealings. Night of the Living Dead has since fallen into the Public Domain in America, and has been screened at such prestigious outlets as the Museum of Modern Art.

In 1968, Roger Ebert reviewed Night of the Living Dead for Reader's Digest..
