I loved "Gargoyles" when I first saw it as a wee 8-year old. As with many others my age it scared the crap out of me back then. So what do I think about it now? Well here are some random thoughts.

Vic Perrin (The "Outer Limits" Control Voice) does the narration for a great lead-in about the history of gargoyles. Pay attention because his history lesson is important to understanding what will unfold.

We've got another "Outer Limits" connection here. Claude Binyon Jr. was Assistant Director of this movie. He was also the assistant director of seven episodes of TOL.

I love the ishy-colored Ford Country Squire wagon. Are those snow tires? In the desert?

Just noticed a rusty old '59 Plymouth Fury junked outside of Uncle Willie's museum. Do you suppose Uncle Willie is related to George LeBay? You know the old guy who sells a '59 Fury to Arnie Cunningham in "Christine". Say I wonder if Uncle Willie's Fury is actually 'Christine'?

So Uncle Willie is pissed that Dr. Boley won't believe his story about the gargoyles. Do you think it may have helped Willie's case if he weren't surrounded by jackalopes?

The police car that is chasing the bikers has changed from a Chevy Impala to a Ford Galaxie and back to an Impala about three times during this chase.

Things are getting a little scary and weird at the gas station as Diana is being abducted by the gargoyles. There's no sound or music just the grunting and breathing of gargoyles.

I'm surprised they are showing so much of the gargoyles. They are clearly guys wearing painted wet suits.

Bernie Casey is playing the head gargoyle but his voice is replaced with that of the great Vic Perrin!

Casey's gargoyle doesn't have a beak like the other gargoyles. I guess that's why he's the boss.

Cornell Wilde is a frickin' spry old dude.

Why are the gargoyles always shown running in slow motion?

If the gargoyles mean no harm as they've stated what's with the evil laughter and grand power gestures?

You have to hand it to the effects crew there are lots of different gargoyle suits and they are showing them in broad daylight. I'm seeing lots of zippers but the gargoyle masks are great!

Will the 'New Age of the Gargoyles' be inadvertently thwarted because the chief gargoyle is horned up for Diana? Because the Chief's female mate is telling Dr. Boley where he can find Diana.

The gargoyles are going to have to wait another 600 years because of a jealous female.

This was pretty corny but I would expect nothing less from an early '70s made-for-TV flick. Awesome!
