The legendary and iconic Berwyn/Chicago-based classic mammoth thriller feature film masterpiece host will present his big broadcast of “The Car” (1977), this Sat.; July 1 at 8 p.m. Eastern/7 p.m. Central on Me-TV.
“The Car” (1977) was directed and co-produced by veteran feature film and television director Elliot Silverstein. Alongside his classic mammoth Universal action-adventure-thriller masterpiece production of “The Car” (1977), some of Silverstein’s best-known productions that he worked on in his feature film and television directorial career include Rod Serling‘s classic mammoth CBS television supernatural/sci-fi masterpiece series, “The Twilight Zone” (Silverstein directed four episodes from 1961-64), Herbert B. Leonard‘s classic mammoth Columbia Pictures-Screen Gems/ABC television drama masterpiece series with Martin Milner and George Maharis, “Route 66” (Silverstein directed five episodes from 1960-61), the classic mammoth Columbia Pictures comedy-western feature film masterpiece production of “Cat Ballou” (1965) with Jane Fonda, Lee Marvin, Michael Callan, Dwayne Hickman and musical moments featuring legendary crooner Nat “King” Cole and Stubby Kaye and the classic mammoth western masterpiece “A Man Called Horse” (1970) with Richard Harris, Iron Eyes Cody and Judith Anderson; the aforementioned 1970 production was co-produced by CBS’ theatrical films subsidiary, Cinema Center Films- productions that were produced under CBS’ Cinema Center Films later had television feature film premieres on the CBS television network. The CBS/Cinema Center Films holdings today are still under CBS ownership via Paramount Pictures/Paramount Global (successor to ViacomCBS, under the CBS Studios moniker). -C.H.
Veteran producer Marvin Birdt co-produced the classic mammoth 1977 Universal action-adventure-thriller masterpiece with Silverstein. According to IMDB, “The Car” was the only feature film production that Birdt worked on with Silverstein.
The original story and screenplay treatment for “The Car” was written by veteran screenwriters Michael Butler and Dennis Shyrack. Butler previously wrote several episodes of the classic mammoth Universal Studios/NBC TV detective masterpiece series production of “Ironside” with Raymond Burr (of TV’s “Perry Mason” fame), Don Mitchell, Barbara Andersen and Don Galloway (Butler wrote five episodes of the series from 1972-74). To paraphrase Sven, “Michael Butler wrote for another series that featured TV’s.. Raymond ‘Perry Mason’ Burr!” -C.H. Butler also co-created with veteran producer Jay Bernstein the short-lived Columbia Pictures/CBS television crime drama series with Michael Paré and Michael Beck; “Houston Knights” (1987-88).
Butler and Shyrack’s screenplay was originally under the title of “Wheels” and was changed to “The Car” after Universal executives bought the screen rights to Butler and Shyrack’s treatment since rival United Artists had the feature film rights to Arthur Hailey’s novel of “Wheels,” according to the American Film Institute.
This will mark Sven’s fifth big broadcast of “The Car” (1977) on the airlanes of Me-TV. He had previously showcased Silverstein’s classic mammoth Universal action-thriller masterpiece production as a big Me-TV broadcast premiere back in Dec. 2011* and as regular Me-TV big broadcasts back in April 2016, July 2017 and June 2019.

Veteran producer John Croydon also co-produced the 1958 Gordon-Crabtree* production of “Fiend Without a Face.” Croydon later served as the producer Ian Curteis’s classic sci-fi/horror masterpiece production with Mary Peach and Norman Wooland, “The Projected Man” (1966, released in the United States by Universal Studios in 1967). Veteran producer/screenwriter Ronald Kinnoch served as co-producer and veteran/producer screenwriter Charles F. Vetter also served in an uncredited role an executive producer in the Gordon/Crabtree* production of “Fiend Without a Face.” Both Kinnoch and Vetter previously co-wrote the screenplay for the cult classic Gordon/Shonteff thriller masterpiece production of “Devil Doll” (1964) with veteran author Frederick Escreet Smith (Kinnoch received credit under the pseudonym of George Barclay for the 1964 production of “Devil Doll,” Lance Z. Hargreaves received credit under the pseudonym of Lance Z. Hargreaves for the 1964 production of “Devil Doll”).
“Fiend Without a Face” (1958) was released theatrically throughout Great Britain via Eros Films Ltd., the company was founded by Phil and Sid Hyams; according to IMDB. Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer (MGM) handled the North American theatrical distribution/releasing rights to “Fiend Without a Face.” Complete theatrical re-issue, latter television syndication and home entertainment licensing rights to “Fiend Without a Face” (1958) would later revert to Richard Gordon’s Gordon Films, Inc. (under the estate of Richard Gordon since Gordon’s death in 2011); according to veteran film distributor Kit Parker’s retrospective on veteran film producer Gordon. It was known that Gordon was one of the last living persons who worked with both Bela Lugosi and Boris Karloff and that “Fiend Without a Face” (1958) was the production that was mostly associated with Richard Gordon.
According to IMDB’s trivia section on the classic mammoth 1958 Richard Gordon sci-fi masterpiece production of “Fiend Without a Face” (1958); Crabtree* was reluctant in directing the aforementioned production for Gordon’s production company. Marshall Thompson later recounted that the veteran director was not a big aficionado of feature films in the science fiction/sci-fi genre. Crabtree felt that it was a step back from his traditional “house style” feature film genres of dramas, mysteries, biopics and light comedies at the time of “Fiend Without a Face.”

Additional insight into the pre-production of Waggner’s Universal production of “Man-Made Monster” (1941)
Latter Realart re-issue lobby card for the Universal production of “Man-Made Monster” (1941, listed as “Atomic Monster”) with Lon Chaney Jr. and Lionel Atwill.
Before Lon Chaney Jr. was cast in George Waggner’s classic mammoth Universal sci-fi monster masterpiece production “Man-Made Monster” (1941), the studio had different plans for their newest monster feature film masterpiece.
A collage of original Universal Studios publicity photos for “Man-Made Monster” (1941).
The original short story of “The Electric Man” was purchased by Universal in 1935 and it was reported that silver screen horror legends Boris Karloff and Bela Lugosi were originally going to be considered to appear in the Universal production under another original working title of “The Man in the Cab.” The proposed film project was shelved by Universal officials for several years until newer management within Universal Studios was interested in the overall project, with Waggner’s direction and the Junior Chaney’s lead appearance. “Man-Made Monster” was one of the newest Universal classic mammoth monster masterpiece feature creations at the time, according to additional details from Richard Harland Smith’s Turner Classic Movies online article. Two years before production on “Man-Made Monster” began, the studio had re-entered into their signature field/”house style” genre of monster/horror/thriller feature productions after Rowland V. Lee’s classic mammoth Universal “Frankenstein” monster masterpiece entry, “Son of Frankenstein” (1939) with Boris Karloff in his final screen portrayal of Frankenstein’s monster.
“Man-Made Monster” (1941): Similar Music cues and additional footage were re-utilized in Universal’s other classic mammoth 1941 monster masterpiece production and a Universal serial production.
Original 1941 Universal Studios tinted lobby card of “Man-Made Monster” featuring Lon Chaney Jr. and Lionel Atwill.
According to additional details on IMDB’s trivia section, several original source orchestral music cues for Waggner’s classic mammoth 1941 Universal sci-fi/monster masterpiece production of “Man-Made Monster” that were composed by veteran Universal Studios music composer Hans J. Salter were re-used for the director’s classic mammoth Universal werewolf monster masterpiece production of “The Wolf Man” (1941).
Four years after the original Universal theatrical release of Waggner’s classic mammoth 1941 sci-fi/monster masterpiece production, it was reported that the outtake footage of the bus crash sequence for “Man-Made Monster” (1941) was re-used for Lewis D. Collins and Ray Taylor‘s classic mammoth Universal action-adventure serial masterpiece production of “Mystery of the River Boat” (1944) with Robert Lowery, Marion Martin and Eddie Quillan. For the original bus crash sequence in “Man-Made Monster,” it was reported that additional film footage by Universal Studios cinematographers was filmed for another instance of the bus crash sequence.
The 1941 Universal “Man-Made Monster” creation for Lon Chaney Jr. was featured in a publication at the time of the original theatrical release and a theater’s promotional gimmick
The “mechanical man!” “Man-Made Monster starts Fri.!” And no, that’s not Jam Handy’s “Roll-Oh!”Promotional “robot mascot” gimmick for the 1941 theatrical screening of the Universal Studios production “Man-Made Monster” at the now-defunct Warner Theatre in Memphis, Tennessee.
1951 Realart theatrical re-issue/lobby card art for the classic mammoth 1941 Universal sci-fi monster masterpiece, “Man-Made Monster,” re-issued by Realart under the title of “The Atomic Monster.”
It was reported that a young up-and-coming film promoter/producer/distributor who worked for Realart at the time of the re-release, James H. Nicholson was consulted about the “Atomic Monster” title by way of film producer Alex Gordon, the brother of film producer/distributor Richard Gordon. This was after Alex Gordon sent in a story idea to Realart with the “Atomic Monster” name. According to Tom Weaver’s retrospective in-depth book on his interviews with the numerous pioneers of sci-fi cinema, titled “Earth vs. the Sci-Fi Filmmakers: 20 Interviews;” Alex Gordon was represented by young entertainment lawyer and up-and-coming producer/distributor Samuel Z. Arkoff– it was reported that Gordon, Nicholson and Arkoff settled their matters over the use of the “Atomic Monster” name. Indirectly, the early meeting of young Arkoff and young Nicholson in connection to the re-issue/re-marketing of “Man-Made Monster” prompted the two to enter into the field of feature film production/distribution themselves by forming American-International Pictures (as American Releasing Corporation) in 1954 according to the Samuel Z. Arkoff papers collection housed at Loyola Marymount University in Los Angeles, California. Both Arkoff and Nicholson would have greater feature film successes with their American-International production-distribution firm throughout the majority/remainder of their film careers.
