The Land That Time Forgot (1975)
RigorM71 Movie Review

Terror Among Us (1981)

In todays world of extremist polarized views the movies conflict between old school left and right was rather quaint.

...a rather good drama/suspense film ... it's a story about a paroled rapist who threatens to get his revenge on the group of women (I think they were all airline flight attendants) who testified against him and put him in prison in the first place. It's noteworthy to watch for Ted Shackelford, who plays the rapist, since he portrayed Gary Ewing on "Knots Landing." ... He was was joined by Kim Lankford, as one of his victims, who was his "Knots Landing" co-star... It stars a lot of mid to late 70's TV actors, such as Sarah Purcell ("Real People"), Jennifer Salt ("SOAP"), Sharon Spelman ("Angie"), and Pat Klous ("Flying High" and later "The Love Boat" as Lauren Tewes' replacement) as well as Don Meredith, the former football player who used to peddle iced tea in those commercials. It's worth a viewing if you're a "Knots Landing" fan or like TV movies with lots of actors from classic, cheesy 70's shows. (IMDB vs661966) V&D
