Well, thats cool! I wonder who posted that, and where the footage came from? Is that on a VHS,LD,DVD release somewhere, or was it the users home footage?

[axlish]

In the decription on youtube, it says that it was recorded off of TV, and it belonged to Chilly Billy. The user has all sorts of old Pittsburgh TV uploaded.

Cool find!:D

[Yojimbo]

Thanks for the link and heads up. Probably one of the coolest things I have seen for a long while.

There was a programme on Zone Horror recently and it had a Bill Lustig interview where he was saying that a bunch of rare behind-the-scenes Night footage had been unearthed and how Anchor Bay/Starz (who Lustig now works for) is planning on another Night release to cover this. Good stuff.

^considering ive yet to find a copy other than the 30th edition thats worth the cash (remembering im unemployed adn have zero income) that'd be a buy for me.

So Lustig no longer works for the company he owns (Blue Underground)?

Also, this sounds an awful lot like the HALLOWEEN outtakes that was recently unearthed by Don May, Jr. of Synapse. Just making sure that you weren't confusing that for this.

I hope to **** you are right about this though.

It was definitely Night, the show was like one of them 'Graveyard Shift' type interviews at 3am. He said that Night was going to get a proper release through Anchor Bay one day, also stating that he recently did a Dracula: Prince of Darkness commentary with Christopher Lee.

I don't think he's left Blue Underground though.

Interesting. MOS and all! Thanks for sharing.

This rare footage was obviously shot by the gentleman on the left:

That's Steve Hutsko, real-life TV-11 cameraman, who is always mis-credited as having played a "zombie" (thanks to the Internet Movie Dumbase). Look at the camera he's holding: a 16mm spring-drive, hand-crank model widely used for in-the-field news coverage in the 50s & 60s. It's exactly the type of camera that would have filmed this footage; despite the obvious You Tube and home video degradation, it looks pro-shot.

According to the LD/DVD commentary, Steve Hutsko was still active as a newscameraman in the mid 90s. Unbelievable that nobody has contacted this guy to see if the original 16mm film still exists, not to mention whatever else he might have in the archives. :D
