THE INTRUDER (aka I HATE YOUR GUTS), 1962, Filmgroup, 80 min. Dir. Roger Corman. William Shatner plays a racist agitator traveling the South to foment tension against newly-court-ordered school desegregation. With on-location authenticity, Charles Beaumont’s terse script and convincing performances, the film still packs a wallop today.
BURN, WITCH, BURN (aka NIGHT OF THE EAGLE), 1962, MGM Repertory, 90 min. Dir. Sidney Hayers. Professor Norman Tayler (Peter Wyngarde) discovers his scholastic success is due to voodoo spells cast by his wife (Janet Blair). When he forces her to give up her spells, the demonic forces of darkness descend. Adapted by screenwriters Charles Beaumont and Richard Matheson from Fritz Leiber’s novel Conjure Wife.
