Eventually, they got too unweildy to keep sadly.<br />Thanks!Bookstevehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09797445163866512849noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29213270.post-5177201640859963102010-01-21T19:05:47.760-05:002010-01-21T19:05:47.760-05:00Thanks for the info, Robert.

I never saw that STARLOG piece and had no idea Chomsky was set to do the film.<br /><br />The Gavin Lambert credit I knew about. I just can't believe it!Temple of Schlockhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16054224371623000524noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29213270.post-27200882592225844562010-01-21T18:13:06.146-05:002010-01-21T18:13:06.146-05:00After William Girdler's death STARLOG ran a br...After William Girdler's death STARLOG ran a brief update of his OVERLORDS project citing that producers Melvin Gordy & Nikita Knatz were going to carry on with Marvin Chomsky in the director's chair. Harry Kleiner was always listed as the film's screenwriter, so that comes as no surprise.<br /><br />Yonks back - perhaps in "Hammer's House of Horrors" - I read mention of AVALANCHE being underway, from a script by Gavin Lambert. I wonder how much that script varied from the one used for the finished film!Roberthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15072833878836137632noreply@blogger.com
