Svengoolie Thread!

What the heck is Svengoolie?

Svengoolie is one of the last good TV horror hosts still on the air. Every saturday night at 8:00PM Eastern us boomers on Anon Babble get together to watch a (sometimes terrible) old movie. You can watch over the airwaves on MeTV!

CLEAR THE AIR LANES, CLEAR ALL THE AIR LANES FOR THE BIG BROADCAST

According to Sven's May newsletter, this month's House of Svengoolie will be the Blair Witch Project. Prepare yourselves for shaky cam skits that were played out 25 years ago. Still, I enjoy how much of a wild card that show's movie selection is.

I can't imagine this movie selection would appeal to the regular audience who tune into Sven for older black & white B-movies.

when you know, you know

I though this was a higher rated movie when I looked it up last week. Still better than most of what is shown.

piss.christ, let people enjoy things

Are you really so sensitive that you need to freak out when someone so much as disagrees with you or does not like what you like?
How do you even function IRL?

Svengoolie, more like SvenSTINKY!

With stuff like Puppet Master, Munchies, and the Jim Henson movies, HOS seems like it's gearing itself towards Gen-Xers. I wouldn't be surprised if we start seeing some edited for TV slashers start popping up. I wonder how well it's doing, anyways?

CASH A CHECK
GET SENT TO THE ISLAND OF SNU SNU AND WRECKED

... Look, JUST DON'T WRITE CHECKS, OKAY!?

I mean, the whole format of the show was played out 40 years ago...

Nah, I'm just starting to really appreciate it

An advert for a drug called Wegoofy?? What the hell does that do? Why are they allowed to promote drugs on tv?

Playing a movie made after the 80s

HERETICS

Made sense until now if they're really going to play Blair Witch. That's much more recent and more of a millenial movie.
Maybe the ratings they got were not great so they're trying a younger demographic?

Best country in the world

Sven used to play contemporary movies all the time in the pre-MeTV era

are zoomers welcome? i watched some of this with my senpai a while ago but i thought it was maine only? where'd this fanbase come from?

In the pre-MeTV era, contemporary movies didn't suck

Ironic considering METV has a budget.

Don’t write checks your ass can’t cash! CheckChads, rise up!

Sven's casket looking pretty rickety there at the end. Might be time to put it in the shop.

turbo-racist episode of Batman

Beyond silly!

It's pretty odd in our on-demand world though. I'm always surprised to hear that children watch the show.

Does anyone here know when sven's next double feature is?

Don't they only do those in October?

West Coast checking in! The big show just started…

Seems like it.
I know I read on Sven's site that sounded like House of Svengoolie is a monthly thing.
