The Groundstar Conspiracy (1972) Pressbook
Courtesy of It Came From Hollywood…The Groundstar Conspiracy pressbook with supplement. A noirish, spyish thriller movie with George Peppard and Michael Sarrazin. Peppard, of course, is best known as Hannibal in the television series The A-Team. He also played his annoyingly cool and supercilious leading man persona in Banacek. Michael Sarrazin, a Canadian actor, is notable for his role in They Shoot Horses Don’t They and to horror movie fans for The Reincarnation of Peter Proud. Funny, but I recall They Shoot Horses Don’t They mostly because my dad took me, I was pretty young, to see it and he said an expletive, along with his dislike for the movie’s ending. I wasn’t too keen on it myself at that age, either. But he did manage to bring me to science fiction movies (he didn’t like horror: my mom did), and he behaved himself when The Last Starfighter ended (though he found it just as underwhelming as Horses).

A big thanks to It Came From Hollywood who have now joined the Gang of Terrors From Zombos’ Closet. With a huge archive of both Joe Kane’s (The Phantom of the Movies) movie memorabilia and their own, stretching across decades, you will be seeing a lot of cool stuff in its new home From Zombos’ Closet. Of course, we’ll need a bigger closet…but, to start, here’s The Sign of Zorror pressbook from It Came From Hollywood’s archive.
Being a Disney pressbook, it is filled with merchandizing and promotional content galore. Guy Williams (Armando Joseph Catalano) also made a very dashing Zorror, too. His two notable roles were as Zorror and John Robinson (Lost in Space).
