  1. Bruce, Thanks for posting the trailer to TORRID ZONE which is a true “hidden gem”. Brings back memories of the Saturday night movies on the local PBS station here in Cincinnati back in the late 1960s and early 1970s which showed many of the great classic motion pictures as well as some cult classics from Hollywood’s Golden Era as well.
