Need Help -- When It Aired

OK... weird request (though the fact that there's a message board for The Monster Club is, in itself, pretty weird).

I live in Chicago, but I remember seeing this movie on WOR-TV on cable in the early-mid-80s two weekends in a row. For some reason, it's stayed with me ever since.

What I need to know is if anyone can tell me what the dates were for those broadcasts. I'm trying to fit it into my personal memory timeline, but I'm thinking it was 1983 or 1984. It was a late afternoon broadcast.

If anyone can help, it would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

Sorry, I don't know when it was broadcast, but I remember it being aired at the same time!

I saw in on cable in FL, and in 84, moved to AL. Im going to guess it was on cable in 83. I remember because I fell asleep during watching it, and had a nightmare about the Humgoo's. Scared the crap out of me.

I'm thinking you're probably right. I think it was a spring day in either 83 or 84, but man, if someone can come up with a TV Guide that shows WOR shoing it during some afternoon, that would be great!

I pretty positve it was first aired on WOR in October 1982.
