  1. I attended three of these programs. In the Shadow of Kilmanjaro plus Agent on Ice. I was a fan of Irene Miracle, which is why I wanted to see Shadow. Agent is an obscure indie film that came and went. I also attended a Saturday morning showing of No Retreat, No Surrender plus Stand Alone. The Liberty featured a triple bill of Trap Them and Kill Them (the title on a freeze-frame), Doomed to Die (a dark title card spliced into a print of Eaten Alive), and Shocking Cannibals (the title crudely spliced in without masking the sound-splice so the sound "popped" at the splice points). Those were the days, my friends.
