TCM Genre movies schedule...

February:

SAT 2/3
4:00 PM: King Solomon's Mines ('50) -- Honestly, is this even SF/fantasy in any way? I guess it sort of is, because it's part of the "Lost World" genre of explorers finding imaginary ancient civilizations. But it's borderline.

SUN 2/4
10:00 AM: The Thief of Bagdad ('40)

TUE 2/6
1:00 PM: Doctor Dolittle ('67): They're showing this one a lot lately. Did they just get the rights? Was there a new restoration recently?
10:15 PM: The Adventures of Robin Hood ('38)

WED 2/7
6:15 AM: Blithe Spirit ('45): Noel Coward ghost comedy. Another one they show a lot lately.
8:00 AM: One Million B.C. ('40): The Carole Landis version, not the Raquel Welch remake.
9:30 AM: Mighty Joe Young ('49)
11:15 AM: The Time Machine ('60)
8:00 PM: 2001: A Space Odyssey ('68)
11:45 PM: Cocoon ('85)

THU 2/8
2:00 AM: Logan's Run ('75)

SUN 2/10
7:30 AM: The Wonderful World of the Brothers Grimm ('62)
12:15 PM: Knights of the Round Table ('53): Arthurian romance with Robert Taylor & Ava Gardner. I'm never sure whether to count King Arthur movies without magical/divine elements, but I guess they count as much as Robin Hood does.

MON 2/11
3:45 AM: Camelot ('67): See above. Musical treatment of the same love triangle.

WED 2/14
2:00 PM: Here Comes Mr. Jordan ('41)

SUN 2/18
11:15 AM: Topper ('37)

THU 2/22
6:00 AM: Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde ('32): The good one! (Where it's pronounced correctly as "Jee-kle" instead of "Jeckle.")

SUN 2/25
5:30 AM: A Midsummer Night's Dream ('35)

WED 2/28
Midnight: Hamlet ('48): It's got a ghost, so it's genre. Plus, in addition to Laurence Olivier in the lead and Jean Simmons as Ophelia, it has some notable genre actors in minor roles: Patrick Troughton as the Player King, Peter Cushing as Osric, and Christopher Lee as an extra.
2:45 AM: Around the World in 80 Days ('56)

My, I'm chatty this month. I'm in a mood today. Well, it's a short list anyway.
 
I count Robin Hood as a genre character mainly because he's sort of the ancestor of the superhero genre. If we count Batman and the Green Hornet as genre, we should count Robin Hood too. (After all, Robin the Boy Wonder was modeled on Robin Hood.) But also he's a figure from folklore, which is at least adjacent to mythology and fantasy. The legends may not have originated in supernatural lore, but some adaptations have incorporated supernatural elements, notably the 1980s Robin of Sherwood TV series. And didn't the Costner version have a witch in it?

That's reasonable.
 
Oops, I'm late for March, but I don't think we missed anything in the first couple of days. Moving forward:

WED 3/7
6:15 AM: King Solomon's Mines ('50)
8:00 PM: Dick Tracy ('45): I think we can count comics as "genre." And Dick Tracy did always have some mild genre elements like his 2-way wrist radio and other futuristic tech, even aside from the stretch in the '60s when it went full-on sci-fi. This one's the first film in the RKO series, starring Morgan Conway.

THU 3/8
4:45 AM: I Married an Angel ('42): Nelson Eddy/Jeanette MacDonald musical based on the Rodgers and Hart play whose premise is spelled out in the title. Although apparently it's given a "just a dream" frame sequence, so it's a borderline case for the list.

FRI 3/9
12:15 AM: Poltergeist ('82)
2:30 AM: Close Encounters of the Third Kind ('77)

SAT 3/10
10:00 AM: Popeye the Sailor ('33): First Popeye short, guest starring Betty Boop.
c. 10:08 AM: Tarzan the Ape Man ('32): The first Johnny Weissmuller/Maureen O'Sullivan Tarzan film from MGM.

SUN 3/11
4:00 PM: The Adventures of Robin Hood ('38)

MON 3/12
6:00 AM: White Zombie ('32)
7:15 AM: The Mask of Fu Manchu ('32)
8:30 AM: Freaks ('32)
10:15 AM: Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde ('32)
Noon: Mark of the Vampire ('35, for a change)
1:15 PM: The Devil-Doll ('36)
2:45 PM: Mad Love ('35)

WED 3/14
6:00 AM: Tarzan Finds a Son! ('39): MGM's fourth Johnny Weissmuller/Maureen O'Sullivan Tarzan film, and the first in their revival of the series after letting the rights lapse for a few years. Also the introduction of their adopted son Boy. Apparently moralists were upset that Tarzan and Jane were implicitly having hanky-panky in their treehouse, so they made them parents so they'd, I dunno, be too busy?
7:30 AM: Tarzan's Secret Treasure ('41): Fifth film in the series.
9:00 AM: Tarzan's New York Adventure ('42): The sixth and final MGM film with Weissmuller and O'Sullivan, though the series would continue under RKO with a recast Jane.
6:30 PM: Tarzan, the Ape Man ('59): MGM's remake of the original Weissmuller film combining Denny Miller as Tarzan with recycled footage from the first two Weissmuller films and the 1937 King Solomon's Mines. It doesn't sound good, though I can't imagine it was anywhere near as incompetent as the later Bo Derek remake, which TCM also showed not long ago. (Wasn't the "C" supposed to stand for "Classic"?)

SAT 3/17
10:00 AM: I Yam What I Yam ('33): Second Popeye short.
c. 10:06 AM: Tarzan and His Mate ('34): Second and sexiest Weissmuller/O'Sullivan film. (TCM's schedule lists the Popeye short second, but they're both slated for 10 AM, so I assume it's actually first.)

MON 3/19
11:45 PM: King Kong ('33)

TUE 3/20
3:30 AM: Night of the Living Dead ('68)
11:45 PM: 2001: A Space Odyssey ('68)

SAT 3/24
10:00 AM: This is getting predictable... Blow Me Down ('33), the third Popeye short, followed by Tarzan Escapes ('36), the third MGM Tarzan movie.
2:00 PM: The Ghost and Mrs. Muir ('47)

SUN 3/25
4:00 AM: Time After Time ('79): Nicholas Meyer time-travel classic. The basis for the recent TV remake that you've all probably forgotten already.

MON 3/26-TUE 3/27: A "Radioactive!" marathon.
8:00 PM: The Incredible Shrinking Man ('57): Written by Richard Matheson.
9:30 PM: Them! ('54)
11:15 PM: The Magnetic Monster ('53): False advertising -- it's actually a dangerous isotope that the characters inexplicably talk about as if it were a living threat.
12:45 AM: Die, Monster, Die! ('65): American/British film called Monster of Terror in the UK, loosely based on Lovecraft's short story "The Colour Out of Space" and written by Jerry Sohl (Star Trek: "The Corbomite Maneuver"). With Boris Karloff.
2:15 AM: The Giant Behemoth ('59): British dinosaur flick with Willis O'Brien effects.
3:45 AM: The H-Man ('58): Non-kaiju Japanese sci-fi film from Godzilla director Ishiro Honda. I think TCM showed it several years back.
5:15 AM: The Phantom from 10,000 Leagues ('55): I remember them showing this one last year. It's terrible, and not in a fun way.

THU 3/29: A marathon of Disney movies (non-genre) preceded by cartoon shorts:
8:00 PM: The Golden Touch ('35): King Midas's story.
10:00 PM: Mickey's Trailer ('38): Mickey/Donald/Goofy short.
Midnight: Mr. Duck Steps Out ('40): Donald Duck/Daisy/nephews short.

SAT 3/31
8:00 AM: The Bear That Couldn't Sleep ('39): MGM cartoon short from Rudolf Ising.
10:00 AM: You guessed it -- Popeye #4, I Eats My Spinach ('33), then MGM Tarzan #4, Tarzan Finds a Son! ('39)
6:00 PM: Soylent Green ('73)
 
April:

MON 4/2
6:00 AM: Spirits of the Dead ('68): Italian horror anthology based on Poe stories, directed by Vadim, Malle, and Fellini, narrated by Vincent Price. With Jane Fonda, Brigitte Bardot, and Terence Stamp.

WED 4/4
2:45 AM: King Solomon's Mines ('50)
2:15 PM: Doctor X ('32): Lionel Atwill/Fay Wray strangler thriller from Michael Curtiz, the director of Casablanca.
3:45 PM: The Walking Dead ('36): Curtiz directs Karloff as a resurrected execution victim seeking revenge on his framers.
5:00 PM: The Mystery of the Wax Museum ('33): Curtiz, Atwill, and Wray again in the film later remade as House of Wax.
8:00 PM: Noah's Ark ('29): Another Curtiz film paralleling a WWI story with flashbacks to the Ark myth, including elaborate special effects for the era.

SAT 4/7
6:00 AM: Things to Come ('36): H.G. Wells adaptation written by Wells himself.
8:00 AM: Little 'Tinker ('48): MGM Tex Avery cartoon short about a skunk. (Was "Little Stinker" too graphic for '40s censors?)
10:00 AM: The sequential airing of Popeye shorts and Weissmuller Tarzan films continues from last month, this time with the fifth in each series, the short Seasin's Greetinks! ('33) and the feature Tarzan's Secret Treasure ('41).
8:00 PM: The Mark of Zorro ('40): Tyrone Power as the prototype masked hero.

MON 4/9
9:45 AM: A Guy Named Joe ('43): Spencer Tracy as a downed WWII pilot sent back to Earth as a guardian angel.

WED 4/11
8:00 PM: The Adventures of Robin Hood ('38)

THU 4/12-FRI 4/13: Marathon of Victorian-era sci-fi.
8:00 PM: Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde ('41)
10:00 PM: Around the World in 80 Days ('56)
1:15 AM: First Men in the Moon ('64)
3:15 AM: The Time Machine ('60)
5:15 AM: Doctor Dolittle ('67)

FRI 4/13
8:00 AM: Cabin in the Sky ('43): The all-black good-vs.-evil fantasy musical with Eddie "Rochester" Anderson.

SAT 4/14
8:00 AM: Drag-A-Long Droopy ('54)
10:00 AM: Popeye #6 Wild Elephinks ('33) and Tarzan #6 Tarzan's New York Adventure ('42)

MON 4/16
2:15 AM: Solaris ('72): Andrei Tarkovsky's adaptation of the Stanislaw Lem SF novel.
8:45 AM: Dead Men Walk ('43): George Zucco's evil twin returns from the grave.
10:00 AM: The Walking Dead ('36) again.
11:15 AM: The Body Snatcher ('45): Robert Wise directs Karloff and Lugosi.
12:45 PM: Isle of the Dead ('45): Val Lewton vampire thriller with Karloff.
2:00 PM: The Mummy ('59): Hammer version with Cushing and Lee.
3:30 PM: Macabre ('58): Buried-alive thriller from William Castle.
4:45 PM: Death Curse of Tartu ('66): Schlocky B-movie about a desecrated Indian burial ground and the revenge that follows. From William Grefe, director of the Mystery Science Theater 3000-ified biker movie The Wild Rebels.
6:15 PM: Dracula A.D. 1972 ('72): Lee's Dracula against Cushing's descendant of Van Helsing.

TUE 4/17
9:45 PM: Curse of the Demon ('58): Originally Night of the Demon, a Jacques Tourneur film about a series of demonic murders. Apparently Tourneur wanted the supernatural element to be ambiguous, but the producer added scenes overtly showing the demon.

SAT 4/21
2:00 AM: Red Sonja ('85): Brigitte Nielsen as the Conan-spinoff character, with Schwarzenegger playing a character not called Conan due to rights issues. Red Sonja is nominally based on a character called Red Sonya from a Robert Howard story set in the 16th century, but this film is based on the version of Red Sonja created by Roy Thomas and Barry Windsor-Smith for Marvel Comics, and thus it can be considered the first feature film adaptation of a Marvel character (predating Howard the Duck by a year), even though Marvel had no involvement in the production.
3:45 AM: Hercules ('83): Speaking of peripheral Marvel connections, here's the first of Lou Ferrigno's two Italian Hercules films, part of a short-lived '80s revival of the Italian sword-and-sandal (or "peplum") genre prompted by the success of Schwarzenegger's Conan.
8:00 AM: The Bear and the Bean ('47): MGM Barney Bear short.
10:00 AM: Popeye #7 Sock-A-Bye, Baby ('34) and Tarzan #7 Tarzan Triumphs ('43).

FRI 4/27
9:30 AM: Gabriel Over the White House ('33): The controversial, disturbingly pro-fascist Walter Huston fantasy/allegory, which TCM is now inexplicably labeling as a comedy.

SAT 4/28
4:00 AM: Killer Klowns from Outer Space ('88): The title kinda speaks for itself, don't it? '80s horror comedy pastiching '50s and '60s alien invasion B movies, but with PG-13 violence, sexuality, and language.
8:00 AM: The Early Bird and the Worm ('36): Early MGM cartoon directed by Rudolf Ising.
10:00 AM: Popeye #8 Let's You and Him Fight ('33) and Tarzan #8 Tarzan's Desert Mystery ('43)
Noon: Sinbad the Sailor ('47): Douglas Fairbanks/Maureen O'Hara adaptation.
8:00 PM: The Quatermass Xperiment ('55): Hammer adaptation of the first Nigel Kneale Quatermass TV serial.
9:45 PM: Five Million Years to Earth ('67): Ditto for the third Quatermass serial (originally Quatermass and the Pit).
 
The Ferrigno Hercules and Sinbad movies are definitely some camp classics in the crazy Italian style. Hercules has those same strange mechanical stop-motion monsters in the same vein as Luigi Cozzi's other classic Starcrash.

Probably should pencil in David Cronenberg's odd mutant kid flick The Brood on 4/13.
 
April:

MON 4/2
6:00 AM: Spirits of the Dead ('68): Italian horror anthology based on Poe stories, directed by Vadim, Malle, and Fellini, narrated by Vincent Price. With Jane Fonda, Brigitte Bardot, and Terence Stamp.

The third segment by Fellini is one of the most interesting somewhat bizarre things I have seen, highly recommended. I found the first two stories rather so-so so don't lose interest.,
 
It's bad but fun if you're in the right mood. I'd watch it again before having another go at the remakes of Robocop or Total Recall which are probably objectively better movies.
 
May:

TUE 5/1: A marathon of peplum (sword and sandal) films:
11:00 AM: Atlas ('61): Michael Forest (Star Trek's Apollo) as the Greek strongman in a Roger Corman film.
12:30 PM: Hercules, Samson & Ulysses ('63): Italian peplum whose title speaks for itself.
2:00 PM: The Colossus of Rhodes ('61): Sergio Leone's big-budget peplum.
4:15 PM: Clash of the Titans ('81): Harryhausen's last feature.
6:15 PM: The Slave ('62): AKA Il figlio di Spartacus (The Son of Spartacus), starring Steve Reeves.

THU 5/3
6:45 PM: Gildersleeve's Ghost ('44): I almost missed this one, since TCM is running marathons of movie series, and this was the last of four solo films starring radio comedy character The Great Gildersleeve (Hal Peary), who spun off from Fibber McGee and Molly. The others were straight comedies, but this one takes a fantasy turn by including ghosts, a mad scientist, and an invisible woman.

SAT 5/5
8:00-ish AM: Chips Off the Old Block ('42): Obscure MGM cartoon short.
10:00 AM: Popeye short #9 The Man on the Flying Trapeze ('33) and Weissmuller Tarzan film #9 Tarzan and the Amazons ('45)

SUN 5/6
11:30 AM: I Married a Witch ('42): Proto-Bewitched comedy with Fredric March and Veronica Lake.

MON 5/7
7:30 AM: Angel on My Shoulder ('46): The reincarnated-gangster movie they show a lot.

TUE 5/8
10:00 AM: The Snow Devils ('65): Part of the terrible Italian-made Gamma One sci-fi movie series.
6:30 PM: The Thing from Another World ('51)

TUE 5/8 - THU 5/10: A really huge marathon of Tarzan and other jungle-adventure films. I'm just gonna paste and edit right from the TCM schedule because it's too much for me to type:

TUE 5/8
We start with the first 8 Johnny Weissmuller Tarzan films, then skip to his 12th and last:

THU 5/10

And finally, the entire 12-part "Bomba the Jungle Boy" series, based on a Tarzan-knockoff book character.

4:45 AM Bomba on Panther Island (1949)
6:15 AM Lost Volcano, The (1950)

10:00 AM: Popeye #11 Shoein' Hosses ('34) and Tarzan #11 Tarzan and the Huntress ('47)

SUN 5/20
8:00 PM: The Enchanted Cottage ('45): Not sure if this is fantasy or not -- a pair of lovers see each other as more beautiful within the title cottage, but it might just be symbolic.
9:45 PM: Pandora and the Flying Dutchman ('51): Supernatural romance with Ava Gardner and James Mason, respectively.

THU 5/24: The 4-film RKO Dick Tracy series, with Morgan Conway starring in the first two and Ralph Byrd (the first screen Tracy from the serials) returning in the last two:
3:00 PM Dick Tracy (1945)
4:15 PM Dick Tracy vs. Cueball (1946)
5:30 PM Dick Tracy's Dilemma (1947)
6:45 PM Dick Tracy Meets Gruesome (1947)

(No cartoons or Tarzan on Sat 5/26, just war pictures. Memorial Day weekend, I guess.)
 
Thanks as ever for posting this. FYI: Dick Tracy Meets Gruesome guest-stars Boris Karloff as Gruesome.

More trivia: MARK OF THE VAMPIRE is actually a remake of a famously lost silent film, LONDON AFTER MIDNIGHT with Lon Chaney Sr. Bela Lugosi plays the vampire in the remake, but is made up to resemble his Dracula rather than the ghoulish creature in the silent version.
 
FYI, folks, I've just switched to a less expensive cable plan, and that means I no longer get Turner Classic Movies. I've been thinking about whether I'll continue doing the monthly schedule postings now that I'm not getting the channel anymore, but it's a pretty easy decision -- after all, I rarely watch more than a handful of the movies on the monthly list anyway, and I often don't watch any. So it's been a long time since the list has been something I do just for myself -- except to satisfy my fondness for making lists. So I'll probably keep making the lists for a while at least, out of sheer force of habit if nothing else. But I won't be able to discuss any of the actual movies unless I've already seen them some other way.

(Interestingly, some of the channels I no longer get are still available to me via On Demand, just not live; but TCM On Demand is now locked for me, so I'd have to pay more to unlock a movie.)

Thanks as ever for posting this. Maybe I'll finally get around to seeing BELL, BOOK, AND CANDLE, which I've always meant to check out.

But wait? No Matheson movies? Say it isn't so!
