Television needs to bring back the Saturday night creep show. These were usually found on the local, independent, UHF stations. Ours in B'more was called Ghost Host Theatre hosted by the Ghost Host. You stayed up late on the weekends and either watched Saturday Night Live or the Ghost Host. I think I preferred the Ghost Host more with its terrible creepy movies, it's B level monsters, and its very cheesy effects. I would watch it, but fall asleep an hour into the movie leaving the television on until it turned over with the Star Spangled Banner then the static. I couldn't stand leaving the television on until the static, it was creepy before Poltergeist and even more so afterwards.
Then when I grew older, my late Saturday night viewings were The Dark Side and Friday the 13th, The series. BTW, Friday the 13th, The Series has been reborn on ScyFy channel as Warehouse 13.

Sometimes I wish I could have my own TV channel so that I could program it the way I would like. Ghost Host theatre on midnight saturday. Kung fu theatre weekends at noon.
