Editorial Review: Description: Before THE X FILES, There Was THE NORLISS TAPES From Dan Curtis Of DARK SHADOWS, TRILOGY OF TERROR & THE NIGHT STALKER Roy Thinnes stars as David Norliss, an investigative reporter writing a book exposing supernatural hoaxes and paranormal phenomena. But after a frightened phone call to his publisher, Norliss disappears leaving only a stack of cassettes on which he’s dictated his strange findings. When a wealthy widow (Angie Dickinson) is attacked by the crazed corpse of her recently deceased husband, Norliss discovers a horrific case of empty crypts, blood-drained corpses and occult violence. What is the significance of an ancient Egyptian scarab? Who is completing a bizarre sculpture in the dead man’s studio? And what has happened to David himself? The terrifying answers – and shocking truth – may lay hidden in THE NORLISS TAPES. Vonetta McGee (BLACULA) and Claude Akins co-star in this landmark pilot produced and directed by Dan Curtis (DARK SHADOWS, THE NIGHT STALKER) and written by William F. Nolan (LOGAN’S RUN, BURNT OFFERINGS) that fans still call one of the most frightening made-for-TV movies of the decade. Average Rating:
 Rating:  - David Norliss: The Night StalkerWatching "The Norliss Tapes" reminded me of watching "Karl Kolchak: The Night Stalker." Not surprising since both were directed by Dan Curtis who also helmed the landmark gothic soap opera "Dark Shadows." He also directed numerous gothic telehorror masterpieces such as "The Night Stalker," "The Night Strangler," and "Trilogy of Terror."

Rating: - A blast from the past!Made in the aftermath of the success of the two Kolchak tv movies, this Dan Curtis effort written by Bill Nolan (LOGAN'S RUN) starred Roy Thinnes (THE INVADERS)as author/investigator David Norliss. Comissioned to do a book debunking the supernatural, his efforts soon show him truths not meant to be found. After vanishing his publisher goes to his house and discovers a series of audio tapes. He puts in the first one and this unsold pilot begins. Also starring Claude Akins, Angie Dickenson and Don Porter. ...

Alas, as a 30+ year old made for TV movie, it just didn't pack the same fear as viewers are now used to as this type of movie genre has exploded in the last 15-20 years. Everyone this has been loaned to has enjoyed it though. Rating: - ExcellentThis was a movie from my childhood. Me and my sisters were talking about seeing the movie after 15yrs and when I went to look for the movie at the video stores I could not find it. My experience with Amazon has been excellent so I decided to see if Amazon had the movie, and they did. Shipping was an issue but outside of that the experience was excellent. We have watched the movie atleast 5 times on diffenent occassions. Thank you for excellent service and always having what I need when I ... Read More Browse for similar items by category:
