Movie - 1999, 2h 15m • as Francis Gordon

Join schlock impresario Francis Gordon as his intrepid crew attempt to shoot an impromptu monster movie in the three days left over from the film they’ve just wrapped. From the Saul Bass opening title homage to its highly authentic, comic evocation of 1950s’ grade-Z grind house, this was lost when it was made in 1999. But ace restorer Mark Rance (who restored Tobe Hooper’s Eggshells) found it and has lovingly refurbished it under writer/director Kelly Greene’s supervision.

Michael is a struggling musician who's in love with Teri, a not so struggling actress. Driving to a gig one night, after a short but extremely sweet visit with Teri, Michael is run off the road and killed. An end to a beautiful relationship... or is it? Two months later, just when Teri begins to resume her life (and love life). Michael returns... as a ghost. His attempts to win her back lead him to a variety of sensuous situations, such as: lending a helping hand to two female tennis players in the massage room, giving Teri's roommate a wet dream she'll never forget, and making the hottest dominatrix in town do her unnatural best for his closest friend.
