THE TURBULENT EYE w/ Director Tim Ritter Ep. 04 Pt. 1
Episode 4, Part 1: SCHOOL DAZE AND BETAPHILES Written by: Tim Ritter In a day and age where Ultra HD 4K and 10K are in vogue and everyone is criticizing movies based on their transfers, pixels, hues, color saturation, grain, and picture quality, it’s hard to describe how bad the TV reception was in the 1970’s and even into the 1980’s on video!

Before I even started school, my parents would listen to this radio show called THE SHADOW or THE SHADOW KNOWS and I will never forget the narrator always...
THE TURBULENT EYE w/ Director Tim Ritter Ep. 01

I’m not sure exactly why, but I could write a book on how HALLOWEEN affected [and afflicted!] me when I saw it on television in October 1981.
