Were the radio spots in the original 1974 TCM film for real?
No. I received a very interesting e-mail from a TCM fan who has done some research on his own regarding the opening radio spots. Where the announcer talks about human remains being exhumed. Go here to read his mail on the subject, as well as some other facts about the movie. A: The actor who played the radio announcer, at the beginning of the film, was Levie Isaaks. He is now a successful cinematographer in Los Angeles. Other voices in the film were Joe Gracey and Wayne Bell.
