Christian Youth Scare Films V02
Teenage Choice, Teenage Christmas Teenage Loyalty, The Right Start!
God works His mysterious and magical ways in the lives of various troubled teens in this sophomore collection of scrubbed-behind-the-ears shorts from the atomic age. Kicking off the quartet of tales is A Teenager's Choice (1959, b&w) in which the soon-to-be-18-year-old heroine has decided to run away and elope with her well-meaning (and looks like he's soon-to-be-30) boyfriend, who schleps for pennies at the local service station... until her dad gives her the ol' guilt trip about how important a real Christian wedding in a church is to a successful marriage: Marriage is a sacred relationship. And you'll be starting right with Christ as the center of your life! Then she tells her would-be hubby that she'd rather just stay home and play Scrabble with the fam for now instead of putting dents into the headboard: Marriage is... for real! All is happy. Teenage Christmas (1960, b&w) follows, as a youth group is too absorbed assembling a nativity scene to answer the soul-searching questions of two mischievous kids. When the brats later throw snowballs at the display in an act of sugar-coated rebellion, the group at first cries for blood: It's... it's sacrilegious! It's not until one of the more dull boys warns that they're reps of the church, so they should just chill out and tell the kids Bible stories instead. All is happy. In Teenage Loyalty (1960, b&w), perky Jean has her extracurricular eggs in one too many baskets. With the school play and other activities, she neglects her responsibilities as head of her youth group, particularly in trying to find a filmstrip on Africa. When she asks for help too late, her friends turn her down. One guy uses the excuse that he has to help the old farts at the retirement home. Even hunky foreign exchange student Carlos can't pitch in: Sounds like you are how you say? off the beam. In fact, Jean is so busy, she's even missed family devotions several times! At her breaking point, Jean reads the Bible and suddenly figures it all out: I spread myself so thin, I forgot my chief loyalty... My loyalty to Christ! Once again, all is happy. Finally, a bunch of very recognizable character actors (whose names probably won't ring any bells) appear in The Right Start (1955, b&w). Pint-sized punk (PETER VOTRIAN) uses the old five-finger discount to swipe an alarm clock from storekeeper WALTER COY (the voodoo priest of I Eat Your Skin) who then tells Christian cop STUART RANDALL. After the cop confers with the boy's grim-faced pa, PAUL BRYAR, the little delinquent is enrolled in Sunday school! And surprise, surprise once the kid is give a lil' New Testament all his own (Isn't it slick! Can I write my name in it, Pa?) he decides stealing alarm clocks just isn't his style anymore. And yes, all is happy. Those Lutherans really do have all the answers! From 16mm holier-than-thou prints. Rod Lott, Hitch magazine

Teenage Testament, Teenage Challenge, Teenage Crusade, Red Trap!
Satan be damned! The Almighty kicks ass left and right in this third collection of Christian Youth Scare Films! First up is Teenage Testament (1960, b&w), in which young Roy (and his receding hairline) works at a malt shop owned by his Aunt Gertie (DOROTHY ADAMS, Mrs. Cameron in The Best Years of Our Lives). Quick to dish out some gospel with a scoop of ice cream, Roy preaches to many customers but particularly needles Josh, the cab driver with a real dilly of an ulcer. Sounds like you need food for the soul, Roy says. With his brimstone counter behavior (and creepy automaton looks) driving customers away, Gertie asks Roy to can the religious talk. Roy is understandably torn between honoring his family's wishes and doing what he knows is right. As a fellow Christian tells him, he's really in a spot. But before long, he's got Aunt Gertie piping hymns into the shop, customers or no customers. Hallelujah! (Question: is the RICHARD MILES who stars in this and Teenage Crusade the same Richard Miles who co-wrote that quintessential Christian classic They Saved Hitler's Brain?) In Teenage Challenge (1959, b&w), Dave, a real fire-breathing, heathen-eating preacher boy, enters the school essay contest which asks what is the biggest challenge teens face. Why, to be a Christian, he answers in five hundred words or less. His entry is one of the winners but the godless school board won't let him read it at the assembly because of its controversial content: It's too religious for around here! Rather than write another, he rejoices when the editor of the school paper promises to run it in the next edition. Yea! Separation of church and state sucks! Teenage Crusade (1960, b&w) finds Don (the deeply disturbed Billy Haloran of Coppola's Dementia 13) and his youth group planning a jalopy raid to bring wayward souls to their next church party complete with cool, not-at-all-stupid activities like egg races and playing ping-pong using only your breath. A jalopy raid? says one hesitant hoodlum, How corny can you get! Agreed, greaser. (As the pastor says, It's not easy to be a Christian...) With more bad halo jokes than there were locusts at the plague, this edition also features The Red Trap (1959, b&w), a short about the dangers of Communist hussies. Since the commies would love to snare the son of a superior court judge, semi-brainwashed Carl is recruited by (familiar movie tough guy) DON GORDON and a soulless Soviet slut much to the annoyance of the FBI. Fortunately, Carl talks things out with Pastor Bob (who reads from J. Edgar Hoover's Masters of Deceit) and ends up trading in communism for Dad's sexy secretary EVE BRENT (aka Jean Ann Lewis), star of Gun Girls! A bit of trivia: The first two films in this VOLUME both contain the angry line, Alright, you clowns! From 16mm heaven-sent prints. Rod Lott, Hitch magazine

What Happened To JoJo?, God is in the Streets, Yellow Slippers!
Fed up with Satan? Then trade in those horns for a sparkling new halo and kick back with VOLUME 4 of our Christian Scare Film series and experience the wonder and joy of God Himself invading your TV set! Years after inflaming passions with her pre-pubescent skinny-dip in Child Bride (1939), SHIRLEY MILES (billed here as Shirley O. Mills) does penance by appearing in the Protestant Film Commission's What Happened to Jo Jo (1950, b&w). Shirley's friend, Jo Jo Wheeler (SUE ENGLAND), a self-described rattlebrain, pities the poor folks in the slums of Mulberry Street and suggests that the overage kids of her Christian Citizenship organization somehow help them. Wandering past all the scary ethnic types that prowl the streets, Jo Jo is weirdly excited by it all: I was thrilled! I was actually slumming! All that changes, however, when she's beaned on the head by a rock thrown by young and snarling RUSS TAMBYLN (Satan's Sadists), billed here simply as Rusty. Fuck helping the kids, Jo Jo now wants to send Russ to reform school until she has a spiritual awakening in the courtroom: I'm a Christian and I've just begun to understand what it means! What Happened to Jo Jo was directed by EDWARD L. CAHN who, a few years later, would forsake Christian youth for the leather-clad specimens of AIP's Shake, Rattle, and Roll (1956), Dragstrip Girl (1957), and Motorcycle Gang (1957). And watch for former Charles Foster Kane, BUDDY SWAN, as a tough-talking Protestant: Eats! How about the eats?! Then a high-strung JEFF MORROW (star of The Giant Claw) learns that God Is in the Streets (1956, b&w) when he checks into a fleabag hotel and is driven nuts by REED HADLEY (Brain of Blood) and his Salvation Army band playing just below the window of his room. After paying cheap thug RUSSELL JOHNSON (the professor on Gilligan's Island) twenty bucks to throw fruit at them, Morrow takes a gun and sets out to murder former wife PHYLLIS COATES (Lois Lane). Oddly, he eventually winds up at the Salvation Army where he learns that, You're never alone... You're never alone... You're never alone... Then it's off to Poland for Yellow Slipper (color) a weird featurette that looks like a surreal kiddie film fairy tale produced by FCU Illuzjon on stylized sets about the orphan boy who became a sculptor. Based on legend, a blond-haired waif endures beatings, runs off with an acrobatic troupe, and evades Black Raphael, a murderous thief missing an ear, in order to join a group of Medieval artists who are carving the spectacular (and authentic) altar piece for the cathedral of Krakow. Though it's all meant to be highly inspirational, we were nevertheless rooting for Raphael... From 16mm blessed-are-they prints. Buy this or burn in Hell. Watson Pritchard

Teenage Diary (1960, color), Our Children: Spending Money (1958, b&w), Our Children: Turn the Other Cheek (1958, color), The Big Deal (1964, color), Crisis in Morality (1961, b&w)
Are you a sinner? Do you wish to be saved? Then climb aboard the Christian Express with this fifth VOLUME of our Christian Scare Films series as we choo-choo our way to heaven. Next stop, your soul! Poor Penny (va-va-va-VONDA VAN DYKE). As Teenage Diary (1960, color) reveals, her evening at the Senior Party is an unmitigated disaster. She can barely get out of the house without her miserable, life-loathing parents starting an argument. Then her date, good Christian Brad, tries to loosen her up with a quick quote from Christ. But it's the one-two punch of a heathen tiki bar and the bongo beat of The Counts that so inflames her passion that she and Brad start sinning on the beach which is exactly when her drunken maniac of a dad shows up to beat the bejesus out of them. Penny's mom is equally sympathetic: Why you little tramp! she says as she slaps Penny across the face. Penny next meets Brad's spookily cheerful mother who goes into a weird, trance-like Christian rant about God and love and sinful desire that would even make Jesus' head spin and, appropriately enough, sends Penny scurrying to jump off a cliff... Our Children: Spending Money (1958, b&w) finds semi-adorable Dorothy frustrated over the 50¢ her cheapskate father gives her as an allowance. Jealous of the cool clothes the girl next door has, Dorothy acquires an angora collar by less than church-approved means, leading to a typical Christian Family Crisis. Hey, thou shalt not steal, bitch! (Also appearing is frequent Superman thug HERB VIGRAN as Clyde, a lawn mower-obsessed neighbor!) In Our Children: Turn the Other Cheek (1958, color), little brat-faced Molly (KATHY GARVER, Cissy on TV's Family Affair) is caught in the middle of a feud between her two best friends, Sue and Carol. Succumbing to pressure, Molly eventually snaps and does a terrible, terrible thing: she talks back to Sue's mom! Fortunately, her wussy Christian dad (ROBERT ROCKWELL) is right there to tell her all about turning the other cheek, and Molly telephones an apology while her parents watch with frozen smiles. Why, she's like a little female Jesus! The Big Deal (1964, color) is a convoluted lesson in Christian honesty during which little Pete decides not to cheat his best friend after Uncle Fred gives the family some delicious chicken salad which is actually made of rabbit. Finally, AL SANDERS, Vice President of the Bible Institute of Los Angeles, alerts us to a Crisis in Morality (1961, b&w) which infiltrates, impregnates, and pollutes every avenue of our society! Unlike most Christian Scare Films, this one revels in sin, showing us everything from bars and burlesque theaters to such spectacles as a Roman orgy and a guy stealing pencils at work. Dirty Movies! (Look! Kipling's Women!) Divorce! (The very word reeks with tragedy!)! Profanity! (Graffiti-spewing toddlers!) Juvenile Delinquency! (Zip guns! Switchblades! The Delinquent's Yo-Yo!) Narcotics! (Captain Lou Brown gives us the inside dope!) Yes, the Disease is Sin! The solution? The Big G! From 16mm praise-the-Lord prints. Watson Pritchard

Scary says: Just sit right back and you'll hear a tale, a tale of a faithful drip... Scary Ed

Just a Stranger (color), Winsome Witness (b&w), Tokens of Love (b&w), Our Children: A Bigger Reward (color), Painful Confession (color)
Let's face facts. When you die, you're undoubtedly going to Hell. Sorry, that's just the way it is. Unless, of course, you turn your life around right this very minute. And what better way to start than by watching VOLUME 7 of our Christian Scare Film series. Then, hallelujah, you'll be Heaven bound! Just a Stranger (color): A creepy Evangelical Horror Film. Some kids are telling Ma and Pa about their Sunday school teacher, who said that all non-Christians are going to Hell. Yes, that's right, Hell. At first Pa thinks this teacher might be a bit over zealous, but the more he hears the voices in his head, the more he believes the teacher just may be right. And then there's Mr. Harrison, the quiet man that's staying with the family. Is he a Christian? Is he going to Hell too? The kids keep harping on Pa to find out, but Pa keeps putting it off until... Well, we won't spoil the exciting and twisted ending to this dark little opus here. Scary says: Turn out the lights, light up a stick, and prepare for scare!

Will she succeed? This one also features a great scene where Sue plays some soft jazz records and her father reacts as if it's heavy metal. Scary says: For those about to rock, we salute you! Tokens of Love (b&w): A Christian family that talk like tranquilized Darth Vaders enjoy a meal together. If you don't die of laughter watching them, the goofy story that follows will kill you.

Scary says, So funny, it hurts! Our Children: A Bigger Reward (color): A big, fat, decidedly non-Christian raccoon breaks into a house and little Carl decides to keep it. (He even names it Rac. Carl is so clever.) But Rac is a naughty 'coon and after making a mess, he eats the family's pet fish! Soon, however, Rac's owner shows up offering a reward for his return. Carl suddenly gets real greedy and expects a Big Reward. Instead, he gets a good ol' Christian lecture on the bigger reward. All of which concludes with Carl's mother directly addressing the audience about Christian Values. Scary says: Raccoons and Christians: Who would have thought? Painful Confession (color): Bill's friend, Steve, hits someone with his motor bike. As police sirens wail by, the two guys hide in a garage and argue about whether or not they should tell anyone. They decide not to. But, uh oh, as soon as Christian Guilt starts to kick in, Steve loses his grip. Thankfully, his Christian Dad's bible readings knock him into shape and he confesses painfully. Scary says: Hit-and-run Christian scare tactics! Scary Ed

The Door to Heaven, The Bible in a Warring World, Reaching Out, Speak No Evil, Summer Decision
Jesus wants you! And you better follow Him and do what He says or you won't get into Heaven and, instead, will burn Down Below with the little devils and their pitchforks. So, please, watch this 9th volume of Christian Scare Films and believe! The Door to Heaven (b&w): Jaw-dropping 1940's-era Christian Scare Film showcases the Door to Heaven. Literally. Forget about those Pearly Gates - the Door to Heaven is actually a perfectly ordinary white wooden-framed door in a black room with white stars painted on the walls. Just so there's no confusion, there's even a Door to Heaven sign above it. And, nope, you just can't pass through Heaven's Door into the beautiful city of gold if you're carrying a Big Box of Sin. (A guy tries but the box is wider than the door frame!) Nor can you enter if you're holding a valentine-style heart labelled Unbelief, or while holding bags of money or a placard reading Earthly Fame. Major Hot Tip: you better get in there while the Door's still open! Wow. Featured extensively in Diane Keaton's wonderfully wacky documentary, Heaven (1987), The Door to Heaven is the definitive examination of all doors - heavenly or otherwise - and, hands down, the Greatest Christian Scare Film ever made! Scary says, Break on through to the other side! The Bible in a Warring World (b&w): Speaks the praises of The American Bible Society who provide bibles for the Armed Forces because, damn it, not even the horrors of World War II can stand between a man and his New Testament! Scary says, Don't let war spoil your enjoyment of the scripture! Reaching Out (b&w): It's infighting galore as Church members must decide whether to use their savings to fix up the old church or to build new churches in booming suburbia. (Ironically, the church member most opposed to branching out is actor LEWIS MARTIN, who played the proselytizing preacher blasted by the Martians in War of the Worlds!) After much head-scratching and voting angst, the missionary types score a victory and, before you can say franchise, the streets of suburbia are lined with churches with plenty more due on the horizon! Scary says, Spread the Word, missionary style! Speak No Evil (b&w): Nancy works for Mr. Rogers (JAMES ANDERSON, usually a B-movie bad guy in films like I Married a Monster from Outer Space) and, after an innocent late night at the office, he drives her home. A nosy neighbor spots the two and gossip soon spreads like wildfire! Nancy's poor husband, Ted (played by a young preStar Trek DE FOREST KELLEY), takes it well but Mrs. Rogers does not. Thank goodness Ted is on hand to calm her down with words from Christ! Scary says, Damn it, Jim, I'm a bit player in a Christian Scare Film, not a doctor! Summer Decision (b&w): Psyche rock and surfing open this unusual Christian dilemma film. Paul wants to surf with his non-Christian pal in Hawaii, but he's already made plans to spend the summer at Christian camp. While there, a group of teens - including Spider Baby's BEVERLY WASHBURN! - tragically wrestle with the baggage of being Do-Gooder Christians in a swingin' party era. Scary says, Surf's up! God's a bummer! - Scary Ed

Great Discovery, As We Forgive
Go ahead: make a mistake, screw up big time, and you'll be punished for All Eternity. Got that? You'll burn in Hell forever and ever and ever... Unless, of course, you embrace Jesus and heed the messages on this 10th and very special volume of Christian Scare Films.... Great Discovery (b&w): Imagine if Ed Wood had decided to make a film about a young woman's journey of self-discovery at a Christian school and you'll only begin to scale the dizzying heights of this rare feature-length Christian Inspirational which packs a strong cockeyed punch thanks mainly to the wacky hysteria of its main character, Connie Chandler (COLLEEN TOWNSEND). Connie is working in Belgium, and not quite sure in which direction her life is going: It seems that I'm always running away; running away from myself! After a chance meeting with a cardboard cut-out masquerading as a nice old lady - Are you a Christian, Connie? Maybe you'd like to go to Westmont! It's a Christian college in Santa Barbara! - Connie meets Dave Lindsay, an all-smug, all-singing Christian minister-intraining who actually stands in the middle of a room and sings a hymn to her. He is, of course, The Man of Her Dreams... maybe. His godly Christian charm convinces her to fly back to America and attend Westmont College with him and, at first, Connie thinks she has found her road to Damascus: It sounds like a story right out of a storybook! But, uh oh, the fireworks begin after Connie enrolls at the school (whose curriculum involves lots and lots of hymn singing) where she feels like a complete misfit (I kept pulling the same boners over and over again!) and realizes that Dave cares more about his psalms than he does about her. Even Doris, her brainwashed fundamentalist roommate, begins to look at her like she was unclean: You don't have Christ in your heart! Things finally explode when Connie screams at a bunch of girls for behaving like lobotomized zombies: Oh you're so smug and so happy! Go ahead and tell your friends you couldn't do a thing with Connie Chandler because she was such a sinner! But, lo and behold, moments later she has an epiphany and finds Jesus: The Lord has really taken over! Wow. Everything about this production is Christian Perfect, from the dialogue to the performers to the sets to the creepy, Carnival of Souls-style organ music playing quietly in every scene. Don't miss this one, folks! It's Bob Jones meets Glen or Glenda at a Church picnic where the tea has been spiked with amphetamines! Scary says, Christianity scores a feature and everybody wins! As We Forgive (b&w): As if you need a bonus after watching the above, this little gem explores a church that sponsors a juvenile-delinquent reform program. We meet J. D. Eddie (The Tingler's DARRYL HICKMAN), a real teenage terror who almost punches out the boss at his new construction job. The Church reigns him in and discovers he's quite a pimp on the organ. Eddie begins his reformation with the help of Jesus, but he finds that people just won't forgive and forget his J. D. past.... Scary says, Me and hymn! - Scary Ed

So join the Christian march on the road to Heaven by watching this 11th volume of Christian Scare Films and get your sorry ass saved! A Wonderful Life (b&w): Two of The Ape Man's alumni - director WILLIAM BEAUDINE (who also gave the world Billy the Kid vs. Dracula) and screenplay writer BARNEY A. SARECKY (who was Associate Producer on most of the Lugosi Monograms) - are reunited again, courtesy of The Protestant Film Commission, for some slick Christian inspiration starring ARTHUR SHIELDS (the werewolf in Daughter of Dr. Jekyll) as a small-town preacher who, alas, does not sprout fangs here, and featuring a bit part by Jimmy Olsen (JACK LARSEN). Henry Wood (JAMES DUNN) was a wonderful man who loved his family, church, and garden, helped those in need, and gave most of his money to charity. Trouble is, he's now dead and his daughter thinks back on all the kind things her father did and all the things she and her family missed out on and asks the obvious question, Did he really have such a wonderful life? Scary says, No. On the Right Side (b&w): Christian money woes reach fever pitch between Mary (ANN SAVAGE), the girl next door, gay and carefree, and her troubled hubbie, Bill, a degenerate gambler, after Bill squanders all their cash - which includes raiding little Joan's piggy bank - and writes bad checks to a couple of mobsters. Fed up, Mary goes to Judge Wilson and asks for a divorce. Instead, the Judge says he'll take the case to God's court. After all, Bill can and will give up gambling when his faith is restored! The Judge then offers to help Bill out if, for the next 90 days, Bill agrees to become, in essence, The Judge's Christian slave.... Can God's Way stop Bill's gambling problem? Scary says, Bet on it! There Was a Widow (b&w): Though innocent, 19 year-old Roy Palmer is found guilty of vehicular manslaughter in this Biblical parable come to life. Though things look understandably grim, his devoted mother (the great ELLEN CORBY, Grandma Walton herself) decides to fight injustice with the Power of Prayer: God will help me! I know He will! Sure enough, after harassing a befuddled eyewitness and getting a local reporter on her side, Mrs. Palmer and God then squeeze the judge into granting Roy a new trial. Look out, world, here comes Roy's mommy! Watch this, then drop to your knees. Scary says, The Wrath of Mom!

Eventually making friends with a young man named Steve - although Josepf acts more like he has a crush on the guy - Josepf and Steve get framed for supposedly stealing a car. Prosecutor LYLE TALBOT wants to lock them up and throw away the key, but Josepf saves the day with a Christian Speech about God, the Bible, faith, and democracy until even ugly Eddie wants to join Josepf at Church on Sunday!

Rim of the Wheel, You Can't Buy Friendship, Flying Straight, No Other Gods, First Impressions, Half Inch of Selfishness, Life That Satisfies,
Glory, glory, hallelujah, our 12th volume of Christian Scare Films features an even half dozen Christian Classics from Family Films, a Protestant juggernaut of Christian cinema that churned out short after short as a modest contribution towards a better way of life. They remain God's favorite film company. Rim of the Wheel (b&w): My Little Margie herself, GALE STORM, plays Virginia Sutton, a socialite with such a pointlessly busy life that she doesn't have time for the things that really matter. Why, even her husband is forced to wash the dishes after she dashes out to a club meeting: In this day and age, you've got to keep going or you'll be left by the wayside! But after the 80 year-old coot next door teaches her kids how to pray on their knees - Reminds me to be humble and submit myself to the will of the Lord! - he then browbeats Virginia about her gallivanting ways - Get off the rim of the wheel and get close to God! - until she breaks down, cries hysterically and, overnight, becomes a simple housewife content with cooking, keeping house, and being blissfully domestic. All of which suggests that it's time Gramps was put away in a home. You Can't Buy Friendship (b&w): After a lecture from a Christian Mom, two cousins learn that friendship must be earned, not bought. Besides, all the money they'll save will come in handy when they grow up and want to purchase hookers. Flying Straight (b&w): Little Bobby Nelson tries to build a model airplane for a church contest but becomes psychotically enraged and crushes it while grimacing wildly. He instead submits his cousin's glider as his own, but cracks under the Christian scrutiny of his mom, VIRGINIA CHRISTINE (The Mummy's Curse). Learning a lesson about honesty, Bobby will forever ride the Jesus Airline! No Other Gods (b&w): Lots of B-movie faces in this one - including WANDA McKAY (Because of Eve) and RICHARD CRANE (The Alligator People) - in a love triangle between Wanda, a football player, rich kid Crane, and an inventor, who all learn a cheap lesson in capitalism and worshipping false gods. Makes you wonder whether a simple Christian Three-way wouldn't have been a hell of a lot easier. First Impressions (b&w): Little Davey (JOHNNY CRAWFORD of Village of the Giants) wants Spike Miller to pitch on his baseball team, but Spike scares everyone: He thinks he's so tough! But tough Spike is actually a Christian softie which Davey's bigoted Aunt Martha quickly learns. Love thy neighbor... not! Half Inch of Selfishness (b&w): Two battling brothers become Christian angels after a talk by their befuddled dad who could've saved us all some time by just beating the Christian crap out of them. Life That Satisfies (b&w): The one short not made by Family Films in this batch offers Musical Moments with Paul and Bob from The Scriptures Visualized Institute. Paul and blind Bob, both of whom are actually rather scary, stand with their guitars in a small dark room and sing Christian tunes while dispensing dollops of Christian wisdom: If you do not receive Jesus, there's no hope for you! How'd you like to find these two singing lullabies in your bedroom tonight? - Born Again Pritchard
