    I wish the title was "I Am the Enemy Within."

    I found an utterly terrible 1978 paranormal film (they were popular at the time) about a telekinetic serial strangler who could make himself invisible via a laughable glittery special effect. The film had a great cast including Stephanie Powers, Elke Sommer, Robert Foxworth, Sue Lyon, Cesare Danova, Percy Rodriguez, and two Trek alumni, Marianna Hill and Leslie Parrish:

    But even a great cast couldn't save this travesty of a script.
    I got the DVD from an online catalog, and I swear what they sent me was a dub of a VHS dub of a bad work print. It had editing notes in grease pencil, color shifts, rough cuts. OY!!!

    But what was it called though? Nice pic of Marianna by the way!

    I forgot to say the title? That's how much of an impression it left - it was called The Astral Factor.

    Sadly, both our Trek babes were merely cannon fodder for the invisible strangler.

    Paul Carr in Johnny Ringo's Border Town! Strangely enough two characters in the episode were named Kirk and Pike!

    (BTW - my password somehow got screwed up, and I ended up have to re-register :sigh: Anyone knw how to get this fixed?)

    That sounds like a question you'd want to bring to the attention of (Tech Admin) @EricF in the QS&F forum. He's pretty good at sorting out that kind of issue.

    Sounds very odd, but I guess there is a small chance that one record in the database has somehow become corrupted, but it'd be the first time I've seen it. Have you tried the Lost Password reset feature?

    The monkey wrench in this whole scenario, is that my Earthlink mail account got somehow deleted at the source...:brickwall:

    Frank Overton's not an unusual sight on 12 O'Clock High, as he's the only main-credits regular common to all three seasons...but in "Storm at Twilight" (Nov. 22, 1965), he's treated as the de facto guest star of the week. The story focuses on Major Stovall's temporary drive to return to active flight status despite his age...and it's a good thing, what with Colonel Gallagher being asleep on the job....

    I see, so you no longer own your original email address, so can't reset the password. Have you spoken to Earthlink? As long as they can receive email on the correct address and send it onto you then you can trivially recover the old account.
    Not wanting to overly pollute this thread, so perhaps if you want further help post in Questions, Suggestions & Feedback.

    I just went back thru the whole thread. FUN!
    Lots of missing pics thanks to me switching providers at some point. I'll have to see if I still have the pics and upload them again.

    Paul Carr arranging a date with...

    That Girl ("What Are Your Intentions?," Feb. 16, 1967).

    Paul Carr does not die in this episode (but he doesn't get the girl, either).

    Not the perfect place for this question, but maybe a good place to find the answer.

    Does anybody know whether it was Walter Koenig who voiced the person on the radio from the seismographic station in Athens in The Poseidon Adventure? It really sounds like Chekov's "accent" to me, but I haven't found out one way or the other. It's in the part of the film after the captain is called up to the bridge, after the toast to love, and before the countdown to the New Year.

    Trek music cues in maybe surprising places.

    At 1:50, over a recap of Steve Ditko’s place in the Golden and Silver Ages of comics, we hear “Trailer ("Mudd's Women")”
