SHOCK THEATRE |
"Shock Theatre" was a hosted horror movie show with Hyman Ullner as "The Bargain City Kid" and Willie Thall presenting movies on Friday nights at 11:30pm on WCPO-TV, Channel 9 Cincinnati, Ohio in the early 1960's. "The Bargain City Kid" wore cap guns and a cowboy hat. The show was sponsored by Rink's Bargain City. The opening of "Shock Theatre" was stock footage of a full moon with wisps of clouds as Todd Hunter announced the following:
"It is the hour of terror. It is the hour of doom. It is time for Shock. When werewolves walk the streets, and monsters roam the countryside. And tonight our story..."
Hyman Ullner was born in 1921 and passed away in 2007.
