Watson, Jr. BORIS SAGAL, 58, MOVIE DIRECTOR, DIES AFTER A HELICOPTER ACCIDENT. Boris Sagal, a film director whose most recent movie credits included the ABC television miniseries ''Masada,'' died Friday at a hospital in Portland, Ore., of injuries he suffered five hours earlier after being struck by a helicopter blade. Mr. Sagal was 58 years old. The accident occurred at the Mount Hood resort of Timberline Lodge, where Mr. Sagal was in the third day of filming the NBC television movie ''World War III,'' starring Rock Hudson and David Soul. George Brady, a spokesman for the lodge, said the accident occurred just after Mr. Sagal and the film's crew landed in the lodge's parking lot after returning from a day of shooting background scenes for the movie. Mr. Brady said Mr. Sagal suffered head and shoulder injuries. He was flown 60 miles to Emanuel Hospital in Portland, where he died after emergency surgery. Mr. Sagal's wife, Marge Champion, the dancer and choreographer, was with him when he died. Mr. Brady said witnesses could not explain why the accident had happened. Friday was the first day that helicopters were used in the filming of the movie about an attack on the Alaska pipeline. A Native of Russia. The Federal Aviation Administration is investigating the accident. The film's crew was scheduled to be at the Mount Hood hotel and ski resort until the end of the month. According to his agent, Mr. Sagal was born in Russia in 1923 and came to this country as a child. Mr. Sagal embarked on a career as an actor in the early 1950's and then began directing televison productions including David Karp's ''The Hidden Image'' in 1959 and George Tabori's ''The Emperor's Clothes'' in 1960. Mr. Sagal also directed several television series, including episodes of the courtroom drama ''The Defenders.'' Mr. Sagal's first feature film was ''Dime With a Halo,'' which he directed in 1963. Among his other theatrical film credits were ''Twilight of Honor,'' ''Made in Paris,'' ''The Thousand Plane Raid'' and ''The Omega Man.'' But most of Mr. Sagal's most recent directorial work had been in movies for television. Best-known of his television movies were ''Masada,'' an ABC eight-hour miniseries, which was broadcast in April, ''A Case of Rape,'' ''The Oregon Trail'' and the biography ''Ike.'' Mr. Sagal's most recent screen credit was a remake of the movie, ''Dial M for Murder,'' starring Angie Dickinson and Christopher Plummer, seen on NBC in early April. Besides his wife, Mr. Sagal is survived by two sons and three daughters from a previous marriage. Blades. The technical revolution initiated by the Holtzman Effect saw the return of hand-to-hand combat to the battlefields of the Imperium. The unpredictable interaction of a lasgun beam and a Holtzman field forced the military of the empire to develop new techniques of in shield fighting which included new styles of fencing and knife fighting. Still the use of projectile weapons such as Dartguns or tiny projectors of needles were common but the more effective combat method was the effective use of blade weapons. Long blades as well as short blades were used in shield-fighting, but commonly short blades were seen as more effective by experienced swordsmen. Blades were mostly forged of plasteel or Damasteel and could take different forms and designs. East Hampton's Chatham History Festival to honor Paul & Sandy's Too garden center.

EAST HAMPTON — The Chatham Historical Society is planning its sixth annual Chatham History Festival Oct. 14, which this year will honor Paul and Sandy’s garden center, founded by Paul and Sandy Peszynski 48 years ago. Three of the family’s three children, Jill, Karen and Dan, continue serving the community, according to a press release. Paul Peszynski started selling vegetables at a stand that he and his father converted from an old chicken coop on Route 66. At that time, his main customers were people from New York City who came and rented cottages or stayed at one of the seven hotels that were on Lake Pocotopaug, according to Marty Podskoch, on behalf of the historical society. Years later, Paul Peszynski married Sandy Flemke and they had four children: Mark, Jill, Daniel and Karen. Then Paul & Sandy opened a toy and sporting goods store with some home and garden supplies and named it Paul’s Home Supply, the same property where Paul sold fresh fruits and vegetables during his summers to pay for his college tuition as a young man, the release said. As the years passed, Paul and Sandy found that the demand for toys and sporting goods declined, but the need for home and gardening supplies soared, and the transition to green goods and hardware was natural, according to the historical society. Then, in 1984, the couple incorporated the business, and changed the name, since there were always customer questions as to why Sandy’s name wasn’t included in the name of the business, and Paul’s and Sandy’s Too, Inc. was born, the release said. “In 1991, during one of the road trips to Vermont, husband and wife came across pumpkin-headed scarecrows along the side of the road.

  • The Omega Man
    The Omega Man Score Analysis by Dirk Wickenden Originally published in Legend, issue 24 (1997) The Goldsmith Film Music Society journal Text reproduced by permission of the author, Dirk Wickenden, including minor updates in 2013 THE FILM – BACKGROUND The Omega Man (1971) is based on author Richard Matheson’s classic novel I Am Legend. There had been a previously filmed version starring the late Vincent Price in 1964, an American-Italian co-production entitled THE LAST MAN ON EARTH [since publication of this article sixteen years ago, there has been a third version of the property using the book’s title, starring Will Smith but in the opinion of this writer, not as enjoyable as the Chuck Heston flick]. The Omega Man was a Warner Bros, production and starred Charlton Heston at his ultra-cool best as Robert Neville, with Anthony Zerbe (COOL HAND LUKE, THE DEAD ZONE, PAPILLON) as Matthias. Also featured were Rosalind Cash (AMAZING GRACE, TALES FROM THE HOOD) as Lisa and Paul Koslo (ROOSTER COGBURN, JOE KIDD) as Dutch. Eric Laneuville as Lisa’s brother Richie would go on to star in the television series St. Elsewhere and would go on to direct some episodes, as well as the TV movies The Mighty Pawns (featuring Rosalind Cash), and The Ernest Green Story. The film was directed by Boris Sagal, who had previously helmed GUNS OF DIABLO and the Elvis Presley starrer GIRL HAPPY and later directed the television mini-series MASADA. Production duties were handled by Walter Seltzer, who also produced the later SOYLENT GREEN, again featuring Heston.

Abstract In this project I analyze the roles that notions of viruses and immunities and their figurations play within the narrative discourse of speculative fiction. Focusing on a series of texts from twentieth- and twenty-first century American fiction, I seek to examine the ways in which the dialectical confrontation between infection and immunity is explored, reified, or challenged on a narrative level. The terms “virus” and “immunity,” so intrinsic to life sciences, have come into use to describe specific micro-organisms and biological processes only within the last 150 years. Yet these terms possess a significantly longer history in political, legalistic, and philosophical discourses.

  • Hollywood's End of Days: Visions of Biblical Apocalypse And
    Hollywood’s End of Days: Visions of Biblical Apocalypse and the Transposition of a Secular Science Fiction Film Genre Antonio Degouveia Submitted for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy University of East Anglia School of Art, Media and American Studies December 2016 This copy of the thesis has been supplied on condition that anyone who consults it is understood to recognise that its copyright rests with the author and that use of any information derived there-from must be in accordance with current UK Copyright Law. In addition, any quotation or extract must include full attribution. 1 Abstract Amid the often complex and paradoxical relationship between Hollywood and American Christianity lies the dichotomy between the archaic and the futuristic, and the way in which biblical beliefs have been intertwined into the seemingly discordant realm of science fiction. Hollywood, as an institution that has often been regarded as pronouncedly secular, was once deemed at the opposite end of the cultural spectrum to American evangelical belief – in much the same way that science and religion are often identified as conflicting arenas of ideological latitude. My study lays emphasis to the fact that biblical allegory and religious cabal are now adopted by Hollywood on a frequent basis, and cinematic visions of apocalypse, incorporating ideas of biblical ‘myth’ and prophecy, are often framed within the machinations of science fiction. What makes this development all the more intriguing is that, in effect, this represents an ideological inversion of what had not only been an expressly secular 20 th century (sub)genre of science fiction cinema, but one which had often incorporated a denigration of religion as a whole.

THE APOCALYPSE WILL BE TELEVISED: REPRESENTATIONS OF THE COLD WAR ON NETWORK TELEVISION, 1976-1987 by AUBREY N. UNDERWOOD Under the Direction of Michelle Brattain ABSTRACT This dissertation examines how the major television networks, in conjunction with the Reagan administration, launched a lingering cloud of nuclear anxiety that helped to revive the Cold War during the 1980s. Placed within a larger political and cultural post-war context, this national preoccupation with a global show-down with the Soviet Union at times both hindered and bolstered Reagan‘s image as the archetypal conservative, cowboy President that could free America from its liberal adolescent past now caustically referred to as ―the sixties.‖ This stalwart image of Reagan, created and carefully managed by a number of highly-paid marketing executives, as one of the embodiment of peaceful deterrence, came under attack in the early 1980s when the ―liberal‖ Nuclear Freeze movement showed signs of becoming politically threatening to the staunch conservative pledging to win the Cold War at any cost.
