On This Date, October 30th in 1978: KISS Meets the Phantom of the Park, the made-for-TV movie starring KISS premiered on NBC. Despite the poor reviews, the film has attained a cult status. I remember watching this piece of crap with my parents in the same room and being beyond embarrassed by how bad it was and by the collectively shitty acting job KISS did. Today, it would probably be hilarious fun to watch with a gang of your forty-something friends, depending on how wasted you were. Actually, I’m putting that activity on my “To Do” list right now.

The movie actually first aired on Saturday, October 28th. I only know this because my mother went in to labor that day and I refused to go to the hospital for fear of missing the KISS movie. On the way to the hospital they dropped me off at my godparents so I wouldn’t. Til this day I don’t know if that makes me the worst child/brother in the world or my parents, or the coolest ever…
