“The Serial” came from a 1977 novel by Cyra McFadden. Published in a spiral binder. Relevant today.

Anyway, “Ring of Fire” (1960) with David Jannsen and Joyce Taylor. Local sheriff versus two bit punks. The forest fire with the old locomotive & cars evacuating the townspeople. After everyone is saved, the loco, the cars and the entire trestle crash into a huge ravine.

I only ever met one person from Marin County who has seen “The Serial.” He said that almost 15 years after it was released it still rings true there. It was a send up of alternative/ new age lifestyles.

This is also a must see for any fan of old horror movies or “Star Wars” just for Christopher Lee's offbeat role. You'll never think of Count Dooku or Dracula the same way again.

Boy that one jerks me back a few decades!

How about this one.
