I wanted to mention that, a long time ago in 1986 or thereabouts, I met the director of RWTD, Jack Starrett. Usually I really don't think much of meeting anyone (a lot of movie people are stuck-up little bastards! but you didn't hear ME say that...). BUT, this guy was a genuinely kooky, crazy old dude with a lot of weird ideas.
At the time, he was planning to make a horror movie called "Satyr," which did not get made, as far as I know (he passed on in 1989). He wanted to play the evil title character and have a special costume made with goat hooves and the whole bit, like Torgo in "Manos"...He looked pretty old but had a lot of energy, and seemed real likeable.
