some segments of that actor's HAVE GUN. WILL TRAVEL series. At the time. Nelson was only in his midtwentirs. and unlike the current trend. his relative youthfulness worked against him— the chance offurthering his craft after the series folded were practically non-existent. and some ean years followed. Eventually. Nelson again found himself working in television, this time in comedy. directing. among others, several episodes of GET SMART. His rst job with Disney was a two-part episode of that company's long-ntnning television program. titled SECRETS OF THE PIRATI-1'5 INN. featuring the late Ed Begley. Nelson's rst feature lilm. FREAKY FRIDAV. was a Disney production released in I977. Since then he has directed the mini-series

WASHINGTON BEHINDCLOSED DUORS and TO KILL A COP. a gritty I978 NBC-TV telelm featuring_]ne Don Baker in a chief-of-police versus black revolutionaries plot. which spun-off as a I979 fall series called EISCHIED. Nelson is calm. soft-spoken. seemingly unaffected by the enormous complexities of the project he has devoted nearly two years of his life to. During our conversation we both laughed frequent— ly, and easily. Nelson. incidentally. smokes. Kools. On a lm ax rartly and ptesttgiout at THE BLICK HOLE, war there ever any hesitation on Iitnng a director that ream ‘l a "name"? Probably. because I wasn't the rst director to become itivolved on the project. It's been around for nearl_y six years now. As you know. Winston Hibler. the original producer. died after working on it for a

couple ofyears. The project was then shelved. STAR WARS came out a few years later. and they subsequently brought THE BLACK HOLE Off the shelfand assigned anotherdirector to it. john Hough [THE LEGEND OF HELL HOUSE]. But it took tot) long to get ready. and he bowed nut because of other commitments. and it went back on the shell. Theit the script was rewritten. By now they thought it was in pretty good shape. and they called me. in late N0\'t‘tt\ber I977. They sent me the script. I read it—and turned it down. What /inally zontttnrrd you Ia do it?

Ninety percent of what you st-e is his taste initially directed by me. But the itidividttal pieces—

all]erryAd;utis. I also have-an assistant, Peter Satnish, who is only 28 btit is brilliant. He's the soti of Adrian Samish. the producer and former head ofCBSAwho was tint popular

among many people. So Peter has not gotten where lie is bt-cause of papa; he had a very rough time. But he was just so creative and inventive on this picture." Rabinowitz, a stickler foraccuraty, fotttid that one ofhis most perplexing assignments was to come up with a coffin for Barlow. “Ii was dt-signed special,“ he notes, “because tht-re was no way to find anything like that. The rest-arcli was diffictilt to come b_v—it‘s a 400 year-old coffin~but once I did litid it. our czthinet shop and otir antique shop here is so superb that they gave me exactly what I drew tip. right on the nose. IfI'd had to work at another siudio, I don't think it would have cotite out as well. because they are stiperb— inst the ttest in ottr business.“ Rabinowitz tries to be a perfectionist. A proft-ssional painter atid sculptor, he has taught iii UCIA and USC, and spends six tnoiiths of each year at his Santa Fe, New Mexico studio, painting and sctilpting for galleries. At 53. he is still excited by what he terms"that marvelous madness that is Hollywood," and he still finds his work there a challenge. For SALF.M'S LOT, in the rttsh of production for television, there are things he would do over ifiime allowed. “There is one ititerior of the Glick boy's

bedroom," Rabinowitz confesses “where I overdid the color and blew the gag. I abso-

It's still a very effecti\‘t- scene, but I'd have totied down my pan of it more." In his iiitsyvicw, Hooper s|,1;ai$_ of II;tl'IIlll|I(' 3\\'l'. [I |l\U\\’ll7 lI\D\\'l Z \Kl worked closelv iiith Hooper, and feels he developed ati -understanding of his persoiiality. “He's very good-natured, extremely so,“ says Rabinowitz, “very warm, htit very laid back. He's quite shy. B_ui once he gains yotir confidence and you gaiti his. that stops. Was he articulate? With me. ves. Hewas verv articulate. With others, not so tnuch. It took time. It‘s a personality kind of thing. But he knows exactly what he wants. Bttt getting what he wants was another matter etitirely for Hooper, panicularly in the case of David Soul, who was also under pressure to perform. According to Soul, Hooper was articulatein relatitigto him what

dl

he wanted.

“I believe he isagood actor's dircctorand believe he will be even more-so." observes Soul. “I thitik the problems of this film, which were primarily the special effects, the vampire obviously. atid the fact that we were shooting out of continuity. made it difficult for him to spend the kind of time with the actors he'd have liked to. "Man_v, many titnes we'd pull each other aside to talk and he'd say. ‘Goddammit, David, I'm sorry we cati't spend tnore time working otit these relationships. but thisjust isn't thetime to do it—sojust hang in there.‘ He was concerned that everybody oti the set was happy. Ht"s a very entle, very, very bright man. This picture, ifnothing else, will seal his futtire. as ati itnportaiitdirectoralong with the Steven Spielhergs, thejohn Carpentcrs, the john Badhams—people like that." Sotil, who was cast two tnotiths before the start of prodiictioti, was able to make suggestinns that helped define his character a little better, but he feels some inconsistencies remain. “Yes, there are a lot of iiit'otisisteiicit~s, btiilt into the script because the producers felt that since it's television. there needs to be this reiteration of the ft-ars on Ben Mears‘ partiso the audience is constantly aware. That for me is not givitig the picture everything it could have. There are only so many times Ben Mears can say. ‘Did you ever have the feeling soinethitigisinherently e\'il?‘,you know? There are a million other ways to say that satne thing. I nitich prefer the scenes such as the etitrance ofStraker with his cane, which comes far closer to creating trite terror than dialogtie can." The scene with the cane—tlie rst nieetitig of Mears and Straker— helps ilhttninate Soul's working ‘l3tiOt\§lllp with Mason. “There was a certain kind of awe to my working with Mason,“ Sotil explains. “and I used that for the relationship between the wvo characters: Mearsisintimidated by Straker. It sounds situplistic, bitt it works. I tlid not try to get to know Mason better, soitwas asif, in ttiy early scenes with hitii. this imposing stranger could be the evil coinitig frotii the house. Atid only as we got further into the picture did my curiosity as David Soul——and certainly as Ben Mears— manifest itself in a kind of relationship with the character. S0 I I

Also, the way Tobe staged otir scenes heightened 1' Th Q‘ SC ene wherl ' I h (' (' I CHIP!“ O f §\lrPI'l§(‘. meet him as he's walking with the cane is verv well staged by Tobe, because I'm staring at the house and feeling all those disturbing jiisasqionslaqp ltyiemprilesaagddlcgacksouy

-" OH I\ C S D "IQ DU I gasps—“there he is behind me. These kinds of cinematic devices helped a lot, and that's Tobe. “I was impressed by_ both Tobe and Mason. There werea lot ofinipressive people oti this film. actors especially. Lew Ayres was the same as Masoti in a way, though he was a little difficult to crack. He's a very orthodox atid tough actor. He wasa niatitiee idol, atid he considers himself still to be a star. Btit once that was broken down, it becamea very wann relationship. “Mason is fascitiatitig. He's better than most TV actors atid he's also a personality. He‘s got a mystique that he's built tip forty years and that's what you're watchitig also, and what you're playing opposite. I was surprised to find otit how organically he works— he had a whole history for Straker. His conversations about the character were vety intelligent. “How did I change tn_v own TV personalityatid still playa hero? It'sagood question. I don't have a pat answer. Obviously. they're different characters. I think the accoutrt-— ments changed me somewhat—the glasses, the clothes. Also, I cleaned tip my speech pattern a little bit. I sound likeawriter, aman who's at home with words. In STARSKY AND HUTCH, it was always dip-dip
sort ofhalf-finished sentences, astreetjargon atid repartee. This time, I stuck with the lines atid the disciplitie of a well-written script. There's also a mysterious quality to Ben Mears and I tried to work with that. I didii‘t socialize a lot. It was a rough pan, and in a setise, I let the neurosesthat were btiilditig tip in David Soul because of the pressure work for the character. "That's one area in which Tobe was very helpful and utiderstatiditig. He listened. “Have I seen THE TEXAS CHAINSAW MASSACRE? No, but I do watit to, very ttiuch, after working with Tobe.“ Hooper, who's career literally reached a standstill a year after his arrival in Hollywood, is a living testament to the difficulty of maintaining a career in the horror genre. Sliortl_v before he was approached by Kobrit/. for SALF.M'S LOT. Hooper had even met with Italiati producers over the possibility of directing THE GUYANA MASSACRE. before his agent blew the whistle on the project (“God bless hitti," Hooper now says). Hooper openly admits that SALEM'S LOT pulled him frotti obscurity. "Look." says Hooper, “this is a quaiittiiti leap for mt-. SAI.EM‘S LOT is my best picture, anti there's no question about it. It's a major studio production, l'iii working with a fantastic cast atid crew. And Kohritz is wonderful. This is a rst for tne.“ Bttt is it the same Tobe Hooper in SALEM'S LOT that we saw in THE TEXAS CHAINSAW MASSACRE or even EATEN ALIVE? Can the same audacious spirit run through something created for televisipn? “Oh, I think so,“ Hooper replies. “For one thing, my style is ingrained in me. ltdoes

Q? not change. It improves, perhaps. bttt it does not change. Also, SALEM'S LOT does not rely on the same kind ofdynamics as C HA I NSAW. It is scary. it is atmospheric. but in a different way; I do not have to cheat the audience to bring it to television. “The stvle ofmy films is not their violence. Violence has sometimes been an ingredient in them, but because I shoot it a certain way. people may have thought that is the style all by itself You know. l matle a number ofshort and feature films before I entered the genre with TEXAS CHAINSAW. and they didn't contain violence, but my style was develop» ing nonetheless in each of those films. “Pan ofthe idea of SALEM'S LOT is to bring the audience into the movement. in a way; the catnera tnoves altnost constantly. I am leading the audience on, but l'm satisfying thetn, too— I'm not cheating them. They're not going to expect a dollar's worth of scare and get 75¢ worth of talk. And you can do that without slicing sotn eone up with a chainsaw." In fact, there is relatively little dialogue in SAL!-ll\‘I‘S LOT. The narrative is advanced primarily in cinematic temis through camera movement and editing. attd through scenes that establish perspective in a strictly visual way. Kobritrfs desire for this ell'ect—and his need for a director who could add to his and .\‘lottash‘s ideas. not just carry them out~was the tnain impetus behind the hiring ofTobe

Hooper. One of Hnoper's tnost striking scenes of barely glimpsed violence is the murder ofDr. Bill Nonon by Straker. who picks him up and heaves him across a rootu into a wall itnbedded with antlers. Hooper's camera carries the audience right along with Norton, holding

on a close shot of Norton's horrorstruclt face up to and including the tnoment ofitnpact. Because the actual impalement is not seen in a wide shot, the scene is teclmically acceptable for network TV, and Hooper's surprise trick ofdragging the audience along on the victim‘s death ride assures both shock and terror. In another sequence, Hooper and his special effects team t'tnplo_\' a colT|tt's-e_ve\'iew of the inside ofa grave, to in\'ol\‘e the audience in the resurrection of one of the

Click brothers. In his interview, Kobritz explains tlte mechanics of two of SALEM'S LOTs most elaborate clfct ts: the vampires‘ contztct lenses and the shot-itt-rt-verse leyitation scenes. Hooper discusses their emotional quality. "I invented those." Hooper says, “working with the make-up and special effects people. The one with the eyes has to do with hypnotistn. I was going for an effect that would implicate theattdienceiagain. l guess it's my interest in psycho|ogy— rather than have thetn walk out of the room for .1 drink when the vampire turns to lt_\‘pn0tilt' sortieoue.

Irdo more. I guess I've got a few rules. Number one is I try to nd a director who has never directed television, and who has probably never directed a union lm. but who has directed a non-union featureiin Carpenter's case DARK STAR and ASSAULT ON PRECINCT I3, and in Tobe Hooper‘s case THE TEXAS CHAINSAW MASSACRE. It's kind ofa strange process I go through. It's hartl to nd something you really want to do ifyon don't have to do one. so you tend to be choosy within your own paratneters. I generally gravitate toward the same kind of tnaterial. you know. horror, terror. something like that in a kind of Hitchcockian mold. To put it that way sounds very egotistical. but I don't mean it likethat; I‘mjust trying to get us into clear categories. Anyway. once I nd that material we progress to the screenplay and in the meantime I try to see every movie I can. try to come up with somebody who is young . . .and who is inexperienced with all of the 1

problems of working a heavily unionized major studio operation.

I

Wlrr is Ural? Because I‘rn looking for somebody who is visual, who isn't wasting his time worrying about the politics of what the unions are

doing—that's my job. More than anything else I want a director who is visual. who knows how to tell it itt terms ofcamera. not in terms ofdialogue, or not in terms of conventional camera coverage. There are two mles I always stress. and in bothjohn and Tobe‘s case, they not only embraced what I said. but that's the way they would have done il anyway. I don't want a zoom lens on that catnera. . .and I want to keep that camera moving. That's. unfortunately. become the way oftclevision. So what I try to do is a small feature within a shun shooting schedule— which is dillicull. but that's television. lfltal changes did you lratlr I0 makr rrr llrr novel in srriplirrg S.~ILE.'I|'S LOT n Irlrvtsion? We went with the concept of a really unattractive. horrible»looking Barlow. We went back to the old German NOSFERATU concept where he is the essence of evil, and not anything romantic or smarmy, or. you know, the rouge~cheeked. widow-peaked Dracula. I wanted nothing suave or sexual. because I just didn't think it'd work; we've seen too tnttch of it. The other thing we did with the character which I think isan improvement is that Barlow does not speak. When he's killed at the end. he obviously emits sounds. but it's not even a full line of dialogue, in contrast to the book and the rst draft ofthe screenplay. ljust thought itwould be suicidal on ottr art to have a vampire that talks. What kind oflyoice do you pul behind a vampire? You can't do Bela Lugosi. oryou're going to get a laugh. You catt‘t do Regan itt THE EXORCIST_ or you're going to get something that's unintelligible. and besides, you've been there before. That's why I think

thejames Mason role of Straker became all the more important. And he is, I must say, perfect. That sounds like puffety, but he was well worth it. We wondered if he would be available, if he would be attracted to the material. . . and he was available, and he loved the material. It's just an incredibly good piece ofcasting. We were fortunate. It's a \'ery good part. but he gives it so much himself— he's such a classy actor. What was Stirling Silliphantk involvement? He’: listed as executive producer. Diet he also do a script at any time?

Hewroteascript forthe theatrical version, which was never used— and of course, it was not used for this one. In fact, he has nothing to do with this picture. There is an agreement with the studio because of his prior involvement with the project. He made some encouraging phone calls, and I think showed up a couple of times to say hello to people, but he has nothing to do with the production. Iurider.tIaridthere'.ta Writer.t'Gur'ldarbilration underway (hallertgirig Monash’: tola credit on the smpt.

Ofthe threeotherwhat we'd call “contributing

That was back before we were ever involved with it, back when the feature department had this very hot book. went through three screenplays and could do nothing with it. What other change: were made from book to xrremplay? The changes we wrought from Paul's original draft-which was very much like the

book—to what we ended up with from him make for a very classy movie. The major changes included Barlow, and that the Marsten House must never be clean and immaculate inside like Straker is. The house was very crucial; it must look like a veritable cesspool. I even put the line in the script myself that it must look like a shithole. only beingthat graphicjust to get the point across. I wanted the audience to say, how could this man of Edwardian dignity live in such a place? And yet he does.

a cesspool? It is a house

of honors. . .I don't mean with ghosts and that, I mean the dirtiest, filthiest house you've ever seen, as opposed to being pristine, which it is in the book. I like that dichotomy of Straker being immaci» lately dressed all the time, without a piece of lint on his lapel, and yet you walk into this mansion with him—the interior we created on a stage—and you know the plumbing doesn't work, the walls fairly see with moisture, and you say to yourself, they must defecate on the oors and in the comers because you know there are no bathrooms in here. And that all adds to it. Ijust couldn't believe the beautiful Victorian Gothic mansion inthe book— it was like the last scene in 2001, and I felt that would play against the horror. It worked well in the book, it wouldn't work for us. I believe that to be a distinct improvement, I really do. One qfthe gossip magazines said David Soul was drinking on the set.

No—l didn't notice any ofthat. It'savery diflicult scri t in that there is very little dialogue antfthe story is very intense. The

pressure was hard on him. I even told him one day, “Let the neuroses play— it's working for the character." He was not doing a normal script, with a lot of dialogue and everything explained. He was doing a very serious genre piece, dealing a lot in effects. -I don't mean special effects only, but where scenes tied into other scenes because we're going for a special optical and stulflike that. In the same way that Cary Grant could question, in NORTH BY NORTHWEST, “Why does my character react this way? I would never be walking into a wheat field in my suit"—and finding five very logical reasons why not to do it. But that unfortunately is the way it has to be done. That's the whole thing with that THIRTY-NINE STEPS. SAB— OTEUR, NORTH BY NORTHWEST, MAN WHO KNEW TOO MUCH genre of Hitchcock. By the same token, we were going for a genre piece herethat was not always t'xplaiiiable in normal script language and normal dialogtie, and I'rti sure that would be very frustrating to an actor who takes his work seriously. Ditiyou realize haw miirh Lance Kemttn and Saul iuouhi look ali/te?

Yeah, but they really don't. They're both blonde, but, David is int'rediblyso— he's this blonde, beautiful, California voiitig man. Lance is also lighthaired, but‘ there's this astonishing kind of forlorn. haunted t-xpressioii to him. And he's a remarkable young actor, without a doubt the most talented young actor I've ever worked with. He is good, that hoy, because there's an innate sadness—not as a person, but as ait actor. He's able to portray a depth and a profiindity you just don't nd in kids that young. You mentioned (ed: a mamerit ago. Were there a lot afo/ztieals, or mostly plrvttml eerts?

I put that in nliyselfas a blue page, only becatise I kept thinking ofit and finally I decided. why not? Let's have a nal little laugh at the etid. For the rest ofthe picture there's no Iatighs at all, and this is kind of cynical and a little ironic. Another eert is the disintegration 0/Barlowwillu-e reethat? On Tlf ltSIll1ll_)‘_Ylt see it but it’: ta abbretitaledv I know. I hope you see it. We shot it. That's obviously out of my hands, but the network approved the scriptat\dit'sittth('rt‘.

How diityau show the lawn burning at the end? We never show it. . . for two reasons, la] .

wedidn‘t havethe money to showit properly:

and (b) it's too time-consuming to show that. I really want to wrap the picture by that time. I think the audience has caught up with us as far as what vampires are, the killing of vampires, the appearance of vampirei; ill 8 sense we must now go to the ending in Guatemala as quickly as possible. A nother change was the use afhawthame instead ofgarlie. Yeah, you knowwhy? Iwastired ofgarlic. And I was tired of every cheap joke, is it gonna be an Italian vampire, all that kind of stuff. So I said, let's go with somethinga little different, and our research people came up

with hawthorne. I'm just tired of all the NIGHT GALLERY business where you hold up garlic and he says, “I'm not Italian," ora crucifix and he says,"But I'ni]ewish"-—Ijust didn't want to get near a line like that, to wind up with an unintentional laugh at a moment when I definitely don't want it. You obviously did more than just "produce." Were you on the set?

Constantly. Arid that didn't bother Hooper? Not at all. I doti‘t want to put words in his mouth here, but I think it added a bit of security. It was a very good collaboration. Things were discussed when we shot, before we shot. It was a very close relationship. I'm sure that doesn't happen much. .-lndyau shot an laration. Yes, dtiring _]uIy we shot two weeks in Feriidale, just outside of Etireka, sort of a New England Victoriana villge, about I00 miles south ofthenortheni California border.

What we've tried to do in everything from our vampires to our head vampire was to be different. We're using a remarkable contact lens which is like

half a ping ong ball, ts

over the whole eye. and can only be wom for I5 minutes at a time before it has to be removed to let the eye rest for 30 minutes. They're not just bloodshot eyes. I wanted an

in VILLAGE OF THE DAMNED and its sequel CHILDREN OF THE DAMNED—I wanted them to be sick and decayed and, 1 hate to use the word but. . . us-lled.Wealsoaddedoneelement which iiad not been done before: we put a reective material in the contact, and when we turn our lights on it, they glow back at us. That way we didn't have to do bum-ins, we didn't have to do opticals, all of which you never have the amount of time to do thoroughly. I looked at VILIAGE OF THE DAMNED three weeks ago when it played here, and l realized how seldom their eyes really glow in the picture. For us, when there's a vampire, his eyes are shining, and that is important. Another thing was that we didn't fly our vam ires in on wires, because e\'en in the best ol)films you can see them. In THE EXORClST_W|l cart Yes, exactly. We wanted a method whereby we could actually fly a person in through a window. So we took a normal crane. like a Titan crane. and we put along pole at the end ofit, and we put the actor in a body harness at the end ofthat, so we were able to shove him into a room. and at the same time control his body movements. He could fly in, he could straighten up, he could tilt to one side, as long as the pole was not visible in the shot. We wanted to get a feeling of floating. And the effect is horric, because you know there's no wires; we're shooting the whole window including the sill and wall above it. lt was also something we were very nervous about, because you haven't got the time. in a television show, to make a special ellects mistake; it had better work. We also did something else—we shot the whole thing in reverse, and are projecting it forward, in the levitation and oatation scenes. because we want the smoke to be behind the vampires. That way we have more control over it. I think it turned out better than we had even hoped for— it has a very spooky. eerie quality to it. And the kev. again. is getting a visual director. because if you read the script, you'll see there's not much dialogue. That's not to say there aren't those expository scenes, those getting acquainted scenes—but for a fourhour movie of the week. it is what vou‘d call “light on dialogue." And that's alllthe more reason why it's got to be visually strong. effect like the eves

Areyuii shooting it hard and a raft version, to accamodate the foreign theatrical release?

Not in terms of nudity or anything like that, hut in terms of intensity.

You mean. in the Tl’ version. a stake will be driven through a vampire‘: heart and go out of camera range. while in the European theatrical the audience utill SI! the blood and ~ Exactly. We're protecting ourselves. It's a

different niarket out there. one where you have to pay. not where you see it for free. But in a horror picture done primarily for televisioii. you've got to deal in scares instead of blood. which is what we'retryingto do. What we watit is to have the bogeymanjump out of the closet at the audience every few ntinutes. If it works, we're successful. If we're not successful. . .we're not successful. And that's the hard part—trying to lind someone who can pull that off. I've been lucky. In Carpenter‘s case. he's a guy we'll come to recognize.

notjust because ofthe success ofHALI.OWEEN. but in the next few years through universal recognition. as a major talent. And the same is true ofTobe. Becausel happened to like THE TEXAS CHAINSAW MASSACRE, which I think is hrilliatit. I saw it a few titttes—atid I know they did it for $100,000

Obviously Ihad to havea meetingwith Tobe. to tellhim

how I worked. which was'probably totally different than anything‘ he d been eitposed to—even atamajorstudio. even atUni\ersal. I said I work very closely. It's essentially tny decision what the nal script is. Not to say your voice woti't be heard. but— But you're the lion. Right. and this is what I want to make. Last year I did this kind of picture. this year I'm doing this kind of picture. They're in the same genre. but it's a dissimilar subject matter. I like a very fluid camera. I want incredible visual style on the picture and I also want to make sure it is cast impeccably well. We naturally have to deal with some television names to satisfy the network. but I really want to make sure it's aclassy act we're

putting together.

But Icarethatthethingends tip lookitiglikea feature. that itjust is not sotiiethingthat looks like every other television inoyie with a modernjazz score behind it. Then again. it's a subject matter that I've always liked and want to see dramatized well. I'tii not into that. I don't collect stills or atiytliitig. I just feel I want to make ati interesting horror tnovie— one with class. with belieyahility. Afterl tnetTobe.Idet'ided hewasthettian to direct SALEM'S LOT. So I went to the network. they said okay—I don't mean they were overly enthusiastic. They didn't even know who a Tobe Hooper was—atid I just

said.

“Doti't worry."

Was any other director ever rimxidered?

No. There were a lot of directors that wanted to be considered. htit weren't. The hook was originally ptirchased by our feattire department. which then had several screenplays done on it—and this is going back a few years ago—and not one of the screenplays worked. The president of our TV division thought if we could sell it to a network as a four-hour. we might put otit another screenplay with a bratid-iiew writer and see if wicould lick the problem. We got Paul Monasli and structured some things very tnuch different than the book and totally different from the previous screenplaysil niean, they were just bad screenplays. In a crazy way. SALEM'S LOT works better in a longer version than in a normal, theatrical version. Not much happens in the lmohir therst hal/I and then everything explodes.

Also. the itiore you read of Stephen Kin —I'm like you. I've read most of his stulf—he's damn hard to translate to the screen.

The characters all think to themselves. . And all those internal monologues that give you goose-esh while you're sitting .

alone reading are a real problem to deal with cineinatically. So we had to work on that.

I heard SIJY7It'Il'ht’T€ that Georgi‘ Romero was considered to dirrrt.

complete credibility. complete lielievability. That to ttie was the real horror. a nice little town that's slowly being eaten alive by vainpires and all of a stiddeii wakes up to that realization. We had to get actors ofa calibre that could give us the credibility. not just tiice TV names who are limited in tlieit acting ability. That's Number One.

Two things. First of all, we have enormous respect for one another. Secondly. we're diametrically opposed on everything and we agree about very little. The one arrangement we have between us is that we have to agree to agree sometimes, because if we continue to disagree, nothingever happens.

of our whole \'isual presentation. Obviously. we would like someone of the calibre oliohn Williams. but we don't know w at his availability will be—we haven't spoken to him yet. but when we're ready. and if he's available. we'd hope that he'd be interested. He is a man who certainly has a proven record for great con-

temporary music for this particular genre. which is what we need.

What do you nd interesting about u-reenturttev Beverley Cum’ mark?

We make a classic kind ofrriovie on a classic theme. and he is Dxfordtrained. speaks Greek and is steeped in Creek legend. He wrote JASON

AND THE ARCONAUTS as well. and rather than look up an Oxford Classical dictionary. all I had to do was tum his pages to know I've got a fellow who knows what he's talking about. Also. he's a super dramatist. and he'll gure out ways to make the story work. OI course. he's worked with me for twenty years. He also worked on HALF A SIXPENCE with me. I'm a great admirer of his education and his ability to work with us. Incidentally. he is not the reason Maggie Smith is playing Thetis [they are married]. She doesn't need him; she's not looking for work! We spoke to Ray Harryhausen in

double-locked workroom in the Pinewood special eflects complex. Working again in his usual veil of secreqz the only indications of his work on the lm were the xeroxed storyboards. oil painted production illustrations of major scenes. like the lloodingofArgos and the emergence of Kraken from the sea bed. The latter scene. incidentally, is one simi> lat to the Neptune sequence in ]ASON. The on y model in evidence his

There were a number of scenes this morning that needed double exposure. I like to control all ofthe lm's special effects. What doe: the large budget mean ta _wu?

It means we have a wider scope. Apart from the Dynamation se~ quences. wealso hayethe ooding of Argos. which is usingabltie screen 75 feet b_v 25 feet. Actually though. we had a larger screen in the last picture. but this one will be more complex. involving as it does a number of people walking in the distance. etc. Hate many snakes will the Gargan'r head contain? Twelve. I think I haven't counted them. otherwise I'd be very fright-

By hinting at the character life changes that may have rontributed to the bizarre manifestations in the colonial house on Long Island, director Stuart Rosenberg [COOL HAND LUKE] and scriptwriter Sandor Stem (the ex-medical doctor who penned the underrated nuclear TV thriller RED ALERT) couch the growing horror in human terms that. howeveradrnii-able the intent. actually distanceus from characters we are too tempted to pass olias merely mad.

We would need little more than this to nd an equally convincing Margot Kidder as his wife. shifting from her erotic little-girl innocence to suspicion and evetual wide-eyed terror. Clearly. Rosenberg knows the responsibilities of a good director.

Thetitle isacheat. The paleand haggard "wolf woman" Daniella

by JCH Stafford 32 L

AMERICATHON

Put siniplv. LEGEND OF THE WOLF WOMAN is a noisy mess. Direnor Ritio Di Silvt-stro's idea of a gripping narrative is to take a scenario of cloddish expository dialogue and interrupt it regularly with brutality and soft core sex, Logic bedamned.Thecontinuityis so ragged the film looks like a trailer reel for coming attractions. As with other inferior ltalian thrillers. there are lots of meaningless zoom shots. a brassy, incongruous score. garish lighting. andapetvad> ing atmosphere of sleaziness. The latter is panicularly evident during the rst fifteen minutes. as Daniella masturbates in front of a mirror, hallucinates that she is making it with an iguana. and voyeuristically enjoys her sisterand brother-iii-law screwing in bed. This girl's got problems! An epilogue tacked onto the nal cre its infomts us that LEG pntiior THE woltr V‘ti!(3MAN is ase on an actua sor i case in Italy in I968. Though not in evidetice here, the real facts of the rampaging niurderess and her crimes may have provideda skillful screenwriter with some interesting material. However. this WOLF WOMAN fails to meet even the simple dettiands ofan exploitation feature, and once again brings up an issue that haunts the jaded movie-goen must genre completists keep subjecting themselves to these atrocious ltalian honors?

The year is I998. Americans. without gas for nearly twenty years, havetakentolivingintheircars and jogging to work. The White House is under lease to the big unions and the President has rented apantnents in Los Angeles. He has also put the American economy over a barrel, burrowing S40 hillion front the world's richest man. an aged Chero~ keewho nowwants his tnoneyback. This is the setting of Neil lstael's AM ERICATHON, in which the President stages a telethon to hoist his country out ofdebt. It is a supercially htimurous film, successful as often asit is not, focusing on the manner in which Americans are itiisled by their hetter instins (i.e.. patriotism). Like a telethon. which tries to be all things to all people, AMERICATHON isatypi-

cal seventies comedy; it tries to he

all things to all college students. It is an undisciplined satire in need ofa teething ring— its bite never reaches the nteat of its matter. Despite the lilm‘sfuture setting. the art director haslirnited allfuturism to the 1980s or thereabouts. Music hasn't evolved tnuch past punk rock (the score is pretty good y contemporary standards]; fashions are something like today's, with the exception of gym shoes. now added to every ensemble. But AMERICATHON is not out to corner the science fiction market. For reasons of drantatic thrust. Presidential advisor Vincent Vanderhoff (Fred Willard] is hired by the United Hebrab Republic (following in the united Hebrew>Arab cause) to sabotage the Americathon with rotten acts and performers, so anti-American interests can pay the national debt and nile the country.

Vanderhoffbooks thirty days‘ worth of veiitriloquist acts. marching bands. and Vietnamese punk rockers. He also hires as emcee the aging. pill-popping celebrity Monty Rus more (Harvey Korman]. star of the transvestite sitcom "Both Mother and Father." Fortunately for America, media genius Eric Mt'Merkin (Peter Riegen) is called in to fortify the tele than with top acts. to save not only the countrv but the lm as well. He books -a man wrestling to the death with the world's last gas-

auctions off San Diego to tht- highest bidder. It wouldn t he rt-vealitig asecret to SL\\'ll1LIIllIt' Ainerieathon raises the S40 hillinii despite Vant‘lerhofl's sabotage. as the filtii is told in flashback like a history les~ son (to allow for ati iiicoiiseqtien» tial epilogue); ttor would it be telling to say that Rushmore has to literally hleetl to put tlietn over the top, because that's a stale idea. Aesthettcally speaking. AMERICATHON is ultimatelydefeated h_v its uncanny knack for tlepthless insights ittto the greed and trickery DfAIIll'Il('ill| ideals. With its screeiisized flashing neon “C-IVE!" sigtt and bright stage. the Amt-ricathon is a flagrant display of lost dignity and triumphant greed. But all this gets in tennsofscript reinforcement is a iiioitient when Harvey Kornian shouts. “Dignity?” pulling down his pants and adding. “There's your dignity!“ One almost laughs. but initnediately thinks better of it. In fact, it is Korinan‘s perfontiance that sulTers most from lsreal‘s indt~ cisiveness over what AMERICATHON is about. In his first starring role, Korman tries to inject itiuch pathos into the hollow Rushmore chararterlyou may ask how a fading star in search ofthat last brass ring can possihlvbewritten without feeling, but they've managed it).

Shotldy characterization is the

lilm‘s major prohlem, lt is equally cleariii Nanty .\1organ's l.utw'. who

starts tnit as the Presidt-nt‘s emptyheaded lover and ends up on the wayside with Mt‘Merltiii. as she utidergoes a hearthreztking iiietaitior-

phosis which promises a volcanic pavoff—but she all hut disappears frutti the last reel. Mt'Merkiii. hero and narrator. is the tt\t>\t minor of the leatl characters. liitiited to recititig the st'n'pt's serious lines and carrying a cliplinartl around. And _]ohn Ritter is lousy asthe President. a weakjerry Brown parody. On the hright side is Zane Buzhv's Vietnamese piittk rock singer M0uliiig]acksoti,aLinda Ronstadt tzikoolf by way of Patti Smith. a t"harat'teri1.ation that stays aoat through a cheap rentle1vous with Ritter that shoultl. h_v rights, have foiled her mystique. Richard Shaal as the Vice-presideiit is given little to say. his portrayal limited to grunts and pantomitne. hutprtives himself aconiedian ofclassic potential. lastly, rnuch credit is due Chief Dan George as the S40 billion Cherokee. who exhibits the talent for sa_viiig the sattie line (“I gotta eat too. you know. Does that make nie a had guy:“_'] over andvover, making it funnier and funnier each time.

If /'t‘MERicATi~toN

has ati_v

strengt s at all, it has the ower to entertain the first time alr?ound— but it leavesasouraftertaste. Hadit stuck to parody, it would have been truer to its intentions. Satire is tougher. it has to hurt a little. AMERICATHON dot-sn'i sting or even ruffle the hair of its many targets. And when it accidentallv makes the audience think it leads them only to problems it has no . ambition to solve. lt‘s enough to give you the red. El white and blues.

Igot a number of letters. It was interesting how they broke dowit. alinost fty-fty divided. One halfof them said. “Don't you dare touch a thiitg. don't fool around with ‘Star Trek.‘ leave it alone,just do it." And the other halfsaid“Thattk God. now it can be dune right. now it can he done properly." So, that's what we were faced with, and I hope that we've done the right thing. lthinkthc fans who didn't want to change any-

rehot a scene we call the space walk. involving Spock and Kirk outside the Enterprise. We had already shot about half of it. at some considerable expense. It wasjust not very exciting. it wasn't movin . we were concemcd aboutit. We haga lot of it yet to shoot when Doug Tnimhull came on the show. so we talked to him about it and he felt very much as we did. He had concems about it, so he came up with another approach to doing the scene that would be much sinipler but much more eective and visually excitingthantheone Yes. we

we had.

That's what we've done. Weelimtnated the original space walk and reshot the sequence a couple of weeks ago with Leonard and Bill. Doug was with me. because he has to put effects over this footage. In fact. he routined the sequence. and then I put it on lm. Then we did long shots with the dtiubles. and Doug shot blue screens to go with them. and all that is coming together in the new space walk. which will be three or four minutes long. as compared to maybe ten or twelve in the old one. and be far more exciting. What main lite di/[neural The original sequence was done very literally. with rather slow-moving space suits going past pieces of set. The new one is going to be faster. with Spock in a thruster suit that propels him right into the center of what he's investigating. Images of what he‘s seeing are going to move by very fast and be reflected in his face ittask. It's going to be much faster. more visually exciting. with visuals that are done on the multiplane with marvelous graphics work. It'll bevery exciting. For over three decades. Harold Livingston has written for television. lmslESCAPE FROM MINDANAO. THE SOUL OF NIGGER CHARLEYI. and occasionally produced for television. but he feels the most pride in his work as a novelist.

Gene Roddenberrv aitd I worked together very closely. I didn't know enough about "Star Trek" to do the “Star Trek“-isms. aitd I coitldn't fool with them. I just didn't have time. Gene did that. and lled in all the jargon. I had screened every episode at a rate ofabout two a day. but I still relied on Gene's expertise and expcriertce. Thcrewerecharacters which Gene had lived with all these years. such as"Bones" McCoy. that I didn't know. There were characteristics. and cadences. and attitudes in all these ople that Gene couldn't help but Eftow more intimately than I did.

I felt that I wanted to make them more mature. The television series had been designed for a cenain audience. and it was on a level of mentalirv that didn't panicularly appeal to me. I wanted to dimensionalize the characters more. I wanted to give Kirk flaws. weaknesses. human characteristics. andlthinklsucceeded in that.And when you start writing him that way, then every other character must relate to him and to each other on that basis. so you have character growth. which makes an interesting story for the viewer. Gene and I debated this— he certainly had good points—but basically I think he agreed with me. After all. a decade later. our society has changed. and Gene will now have a more sophisticated audience. Didyott it-ark at (lately with the nrlorr

I worked with the actors before and during shooting. We literally wrote on the set. There were always changes and transitions. The actors were extremely helpful. I've never met a crew that helped me this way. As the story progressed-and we shot it almost in seqttence— they began to feel more of the story. Then we ran into some terrible obstacles. holes in the story that had never worked. and we had to work all that out. Particu-

Everybodywas tired; thishappenson a picture. He came in and was a breath of fresh air. He had notions. concepts. ideas. he really bolstered everybody up.

Because. we'd really gotten into sttnte serious problems of concept and approach. We had almost written ourselves into a corner at one point: we knew what the ending was. and we had iii direct the story toward that ending. To reach that ending. with what I call its clarity of ambiguity. we had to setup situations and characterizations all thewa_vthrough the story. Withthegrowth ofthe story

asitwas being lmed. everythingwas in cniistantsrateofux. Ntiancesand ideas changed and had to be shoved in with each sequence. But at the end. there was a gigantic gap. Like the farmer whiz builds a [mt-e around his property In culling each pale ta malt/I the one be/are it. and then disrtiuers

We kicked the idea about oiand on and then it was kicked out the window: “Who would evt-r think of making a tnotion picture out of a television show?" But all we've done is talk about it Ior years. and years. And, as a result. naturally. it's had a strong inuence on all oiir lives. Now, l look back and think. "Cod. a year has gone by since we started working on this lm." And it seems to me impossible that it's done and completed. It seems to me. some» times. like a dream. The fans. ofcourse. had an enormous amount tn do with it. They never let go of it. as you know. Itjust grew and grew. I remember going to New York for a personal appearance at what was only the second or third "Star Trek" convention. and when I walked out on the stageattheAmericana Hotel, I had no idea ol what I was going to face. Well. their were eight or nine thousand peoplethere. lstood waiting tospeakwhilethe re department was trying to clear the aisles. They were saying. "Look. if you don't clear the aisles. there will be no convention." Nobody was moving. so I nally said to them. "Look I want to talk to you. that's Wl1)‘l'"1 h‘!- and ifyou d0n'l ibide by these rules. we won't be able to communicate." And. boy. like little angels. they started clearing the aisles. It was astounding to see that many people. including those that were turned away because they couldn't let them all in. You could feel the love bouncing off of these people. It was marvelous. That's when I came back to California and thought. "I don't know when. or how. but something is going to harppen with this show. I just had this eeltng. And eventually. ofcourse. it did. It's been an experience for all of us. unlike any experi~ ence. I believe. that any actor or actress has ever gone through. And Il0Il' that shooting is rnryleled, icreententer

I feltjust as I had when we rst started the senes and I'd had to ght for every moirient oIcharacterization. even if it was onlya look. a reaction. Bill. Leonard and myself. we thought. "My God. we've got to get the relationships going." We kept asking each other. "When is it going to happen?"And it wasn‘t happening. It just meant conversations with Harold and Gene and Bob. and saying. "Well. look I don't think McCoy would do or say this particularthing

would think and he'd say."ByGod.I think you're right. Let me write some~ thing. and I'll send it over to the set. and you see what you thinkabout it." So. he'd knockout something. sendit over to the set.Iwould read itand call him back on the phone and tell him whetherlthought it was right on the nose. or. "Almost. but it still needs this. . ."

"How would you like to do STAR TREK?“ I had just been on a real

But I met with Bob Wise. and he said that he would like the ship to be a very special thing. which meant that I could rip out the walls and really chan e it. Before that. I had held to the -elirig that the walls went a certain way and I had to do'something inside them. But now I could take out the walls. twist them and

I think you could probably start with that as one reason and go u to twenty more. I've written a book. a daily joumal of the making, of the lm, which is going to be pu lished. but someday I'm going to write an article regarding the pull this show has had on me. from every aspect: not only the creative. but also the emotional. the psychological, the neurotic. It would be about the fact that I do not have the strength of character to tum my back on it and say. "Well. that's a pan of my life that's over. and now. let me go onto something else." I do go on to other things. I write, I teach. I direct. but l'vealwayslelt room for STARTREK in my life. And. although I think some of the reasons are positive, some of them are less than positive. STAR TREK has been easy. You go on the set. ypu make a considerable amount o money doing very little. But for me, it has not been an enormously creative op ortunity, even less so in the movie than on the TVseries becauseefpfmy limited par~ ticipation as a p oriner.

I asked my agent. ‘Look why can't I work for STAR TREK. They always use exotic women.‘ He said.

‘Because it is a rerun. They have stopped making it.’ I was a little bit disappointed about it. "But when I came to LA.

He made it sound so wonderful and beautiful that I was really falling in love with this person —except for one thing I personally did not agree with. On that planet, sex was beyond anything. An Earth person who made love to a Deltan would becomea Deltan slave because they are sooo fantastic [laughs]. I think that's right for me. but I didn't feel diat sex was something one had to do with everybody. That's wherel had to do my acting.

Ithink my personality comes out in the film. I couldn't make her a super-heroic person or anything like that, even though she was Deltan and superior in some ways. All I thought was that this person was human. she felt for people more than other people felt. It shows on the screen that she feels for her one-time love, layed by Stephen Collins. I feel for liim, and for other people. That is something that is real in me. and I wanted that to come out. Director Wise has not only reshot the spacewalk scene. he has also ordered a STAR TREK trailer to be redone, to be narrated by Orson Welles. It had been Paramount's intention togetateaser trailer forSTAll

TREK-THE MOTION PICTURE on theatre screens by late September.

InashakeupoftheParamountpubli-

city department in early September, the teaser trailer was scrapped and a crash program was instituted to revamp the full length trailer then in

preparation, which was also deemed "unsatisfactory." Says Wise, “It was very pedestrian and uninteresting. with nothing visually excitingin it so we cut a little out, and then got Trumbull involved with it. He's put in some bits and pieces of film with miniatures, which should really help. Even though the feature itself is not yet in it's nal cut. composer Jerry Goldsmith is already working on scenes and dramatic ideas. For inspimrgom ht has visilcd 1-mm[,u|| and Dykstra's workshops to see the miniatures, and has been viewing what Wise describes as “fairly loose stuff» sequences without certain key scenes. As fast as Goldsmith can get the timing set, he's putting his score together. lt'sall piecemeal. We'll have to do the picture maybe not even in reels but in modules: sequences in time as far as the dubbing is con-

cemed." And so, while actors and actresses loop their lines, while sound technicians labor to produce innovative effects, while composer _]erty Coldsmith is screening rough cut sequences, while Douglas Tmmbull and his associates are adding on lm the wonders to which Leonard Nimoy had already reacted on a Paramount sound stage, we must wait until December 7 to nd out ifWise. Roddenberry, and company have safelv tread a path more erilous than any spa“ walk; the Iilne line betweenillmse who sav. “Please'don‘t mess with it," and those who sav, El "Please, do it right at last."
