"The Uncanny Film Festival and Camp Meeting" was a hosted horror movie show with Gailard Sartain as "Dr. Mazeppa Pompazoidi" presenting movies at late night weekends on KOTV-TV Channel 6 Tulsa, Oklahoma from April 1970 until summer 1971; then at late night weekends on KTUL-TV, Channel 8 Tulsa, Oklahoma between July 1971 until the summer of 1973. From The Lost Tapes of Mazeppa Official Home Page: "Sartain and his cohort Jim Millaway, aka Sherman Oaks, created wildly inventive, hip, off-trail humor that predated the national "Saturday Night Live" by several years, wrapping it around showings of old horror movies and Busby Berkeley musicals. A year after the show's inception, Sartain and Millaway were joined by Tulsa's Gary Busey, as Teddy Jack Eddy, whose own manic presence added immeasurably to the show. And an ever-shifting cast of supporting characters (including Rev. Dr. Menlaux Parks, Bennie and Ruby The Crusher, Johnny Donut) wove in and out throughout the program's three years, adding to the always-present air of unpredictability".
