Dark Night of the Scarecrow!

Here’s Dark Night of the Scarecrow, a made-for-TV movie that premiered on CBS back in ‘81. (On a Saturday night, fittingly enough!)

Allow me to borrow IMDB’s plot synopsis:

In a small Southern town, a wrongfully-killed man exacts revenge on those who murdered him from beyond the grave.

That sounds pretty good for tonight!

This video is of the original CBS broadcast and includes all of the commercials, so even if you’re not in the mood for a weird horror movie, you’ll at least get a good dose of ancient cheeseburger ads.

PS: They ran this very late in October, so if the name wasn’t a tip-off, yeah, this was presented as a Halloween movie. (Yes!)
