Arch Hall Jr.   Message List  
Reply | Forward Message #383 of 581 |
http://groups.yahoo.com/group/archhalljr/
This is the one and only place on the web to exclusively discuss the
great works of Arch Hall Jr. From the late 1950s till the mid-60s,
Arch Hall Sr's Rushmore Productions and Fairway Films produced films
starring his son Arch Hall Jr.

While they can be regarded (by some) as "exploitation", or "B," the
films are undeniably fun, and the fact that they are still widely
collected and in print is testimony to the quality of Arch Hall Jr's
work. Films like Wild Guitar (a 1962 guitar slinger's odyssey co-
starring cult-icon Ray Dennis Steckler), The Choppers (juvenile
delinquent melodrama), Eegah (caveman adventure co-starring Richard
Kiel) have cemented Arch Hall Jr's place in film history - especially
for Cult, Psychotronic, and Rock 'N' Roll movie enthusiasts.

Arch jumped headfirst into acting, and his techique was "untrained"
to say the least - but the enthusiasm he puts into his earlier roles
is contagious. By the time Arch starred in The Sadist (1963), as a
psychotic killer - Arch had bloomed into a full-fledged actor, and
the film is an underground masterpiece.

Since his cinematic heyday Arch has been reclusive, but lately Arch
has been resurfacing, first as an author using the alias Nicolas
Merriwether. An extensive interview (to my knowledge his first) has
been conducted with reknown scribe Tom Weaver, and is slated for a
future issue of Starlog Magazine. On the eve of Arch Hall Jr's well
deserved resurgence, I'm proud to present, the first ever ARCH HALL
JR. CHATGROUP!
