Interesting Archive Treasure Feb 25th
A failed TV pilot from Psycho-screenwriter and Outer Limits guru Joseph Stefano from the UCLA Film/TV Archive
THE HAUNTED
(a.k.a. The Ghost of Sierra de Cobre)
(1965) Directed by Joseph Stefano
Martin Landau stars as a Los Angeles-based architect-cum-paranormal investigator who specializes in assessing and exorcising old homes. Stefano here weaves together vengeance, hallucinogens and a “bleeding ghost” in a gothic telefilm that was deemed too frightening to air by network executives. Stefano's only directorial effort, this extremely rare pilot never aired in the U.S.
Also has Dame Judith Anderson!
