I read somewhere that Duane Jones did a brief segment in the mid-80's for Entertainment Tonight. Apparently this and the Fangoria interview are the only time he had disscuss Night of the Living Dead, til he died. Very unlikely but, anybody have it?  |

Never saw it or heard of it... but if it exists I'd love to see it.

Well he died in 88 so it's possible.
Here is a tidbit from IMDB:
"In an audio interview conducted shortly before his untimely death in 1988, he recalled an occasion where he met with a group of his theater students at a local café near Old Westbury campus on Long Island, New York, when they were suddenly awestruck at the film then playing on TV. Duane turned around and noticed that the movie playing on the television in the café was none other than Night of the Living Dead. His students were amazed to see their professor on screen, because Duane never usually made any mention of his movie roles to his students. After this occasion, the word spread that Night of the Living Dead's star hero was teaching at Old Westbury college on Long Island"

Yeah I enjoyed that interview as well, although I'm not positive it's what the OP was talking about. Man, I wish Duane was still around.

No sadly. That interview is already on some of the dvds. The one I'm looking for is really hard to find it seems.  |

I taped this short clip he did on ET back in the 80's. Yes it was very short. If I remember correctly it was part of Vincent Price's 2 week stint before Halloween where he went over the best horror films. Alien was also part of that series.
Duane just has a brief clip on the day NOTLD was the topic.
It is all just one of many clips still sitting on VHS tapes I'll one day convert to DVD.

Cool! When you get around to it, we'd love to see it.
Did you tape just the Duane Jones clip or did you tape the entire thing over the two weeks where Vincent Price went over all of the best horror films?

I could kick myself now for not taping them all. I also have the Entertainment Tonight special on Day of the Dead. Too bad the show doesn't show stuff like that anymore. |
