Andrew Pixley's The Avenger Files does this and pretends that it's all real and captured on surveillance footage

Re: Bullets with silencers in to already dead corpse in coffin episode?

You might be thinking of The Undertakers , but that's top hat wearing undertakers. However you might be combining The Correct Way to Kill with another episode, maybe The Gravediggers .

Re: There's That Finger...Again!!!

I've found a similar thread on other forums, asking about people in shows using their middle finger instead of the index finger to point at things. General consensus is it's a generational thing, with older people using the middle finger as it's (a) a longer finger, and (b) not rude. (I do remember ...

Re: 5.18 - Return of the Cybernauts

Was channel hopping recently and The Curse of the Mummys Tomb (1964) was on Talking Pictures TV. This strongly reminded me of The Return of the Cybernauts.
