Speaking of Hammer films..

I've memories of some other SF shows but I cannot remember the titles.

One was about a police officer (I think) investigating a series of disappearances; most of them sportsmen. I recalled a man all in black with a woman who carried a briefcase. They would visit sports centers, gyms and find ways to speak to their victim alone. The woman would direct the victim towards the dark suit man who would then open his coat and somehow engulfed the victim. The victim vanished, all that was left was his clothes which the woman then picked up. Towards the end, the officer caught up to the couple and confiscated the briefcase. He was shocked to find the miniaturized victims, all still alive, gagged. The camera panned to their chests and I had no idea what it meant; were they being kidnapped for organ harvesting or something?

The second was about a crew on a ship who discovered a strange planet that seemed frozen in time. There were no people, nothing was moving. They found a complex full of columns. Later, they came across a console which they then tried to operate. They accidentally opened one of the columns, revealing where the inhabitants had gone or some of them. They were either hibernating or frozen in time, I think the former because the being (with a big brain btw) spoke to the captain. I forgot what he wanted, I think it's something bad since there was some heated discussions. The captain decided they had to restart time or something on the planet.

I am not sure of the exact name, but those sound like either The Twilight Zone, or Outer Limits programs.

I remember going to the local theater on Saturday mornings and watching movies for 25 cents.

The Ghost and Mr. Chicken



The Apple Dumpling gang



Destroy All Monsters



Just a few I remember.

I remember the electric Company.

Vincent Price. Good guy. His voice was perfect for horror movies.

Scooby-Doo and the gang.
